US Patent:

6906745, Jun 14, 2005

Filed:

Apr 23, 1999

Appl. No.:

09/298306

Inventors:

Eric R. Fossum - La Crescenta CA, US
Alexander I. Krymski - Montrose CA, US
Roger A. Panicacci - Los Angeles CA, US
Christopher Clark - Pasadena CA, US

Assignee:

Micron Technology, Inc. - Boise ID

International Classification:

H04N005/235
H04N005/335
G03B007/00

US Classification:

3482291, 348362, 348297

Abstract:

Automatic exposure adjusting device considers the image on a pixel-by-pixel basis. Each pixel is characterized according to its most significant bits. After the pixels are characterized, the number of pixels in any particular group is counted. That counting is compared with thresholds which set whether the image is over exposed, under exposed, and can optionally also determine if the image is seriously over exposed or seriously under exposed. Adjustment of the exposure is carried out to bring the image to a more desired state.

Appl. No.:

13/676645

Inventors:

Christopher Joseph Clark - Hermosa Beach CA, US
Samuel Joseph Curry - Redondo Beach CA, US
Lan Xu - Cerritos CA, US

Assignee:

The Aerospace Corporation - El Segundo CA

International Classification:

H04J 11/00

US Classification:

370210, 370536, 370542

Abstract:

Under one aspect of the present invention, a system for processing a group of signals and interference includes (a) an analog-to-digital (A/D) converter for digitizing the group of signals and the interference; (b) a Fourier transform circuit for obtaining a Fourier transform of the digitized group of signals and the interference and to provide as output spectral bins, at least one of which contains the interference; (c) a power analysis circuit for comparing the collective power level of the spectral bins to a predetermined threshold, and if the collective power level exceeds the predetermined threshold, and for excising at least one bin that contains the interference; and (d) an inverse Fourier transform circuit for obtaining an inverse Fourier transform of the remaining spectral bins and outputting a digitized group of signals less the interference in any excised spectral bin.

International Classification:

H04L007/00

US Classification:

375/355000, 375/340000

Abstract:

Apparatus and method for recovering clock and data signals from received transmission line information and for regenerating the recovered clock and data signals. The apparatus comprises a clock detector for recovering and generating a clock signal from the received transmission line information and a data detector for recovering and regenerating data contained in the received transmission line information and directional coupling apparatus for magnetically coupling the received transmission line information with the clock and data circuitry.
