Communicating Over Coaxial Cable Networks

View page
US Patent:
7592880, Sep 22, 2009
Filed:
Aug 10, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/200910
Inventors:
Gregory Allen Magin - Ocala FL, US
Assignee:
Intellon Corporation - Ocala FL
International Classification:
H01P 5/12
H03H 7/38
US Classification:
333117, 333123
Abstract:
A method for communicating over a coaxial cable network is described. The method includes identifying at least one port in the coaxial cable network that provides high mutual isolation among nodes of the coaxial cable network when the port is terminated with an impedance that matches a characteristic impedance of coaxial cable in the coaxial cable network. The method also includes terminating the identified port with an impedance that is substantially mismatched with the characteristic impedance of the coaxial cable, and transmitting a signal from a first node in the network to a second node in the network.

US Patent:
8483741, Jul 9, 2013
Filed:
May 3, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/772551
Inventors:
Syed Adil Hussain - Cupertino CA, US
Celestino Anastasio Corral - Ocala FL, US
Gregory Allen Magin - Ocala FL, US
Kianian-Fard Nozar - Toronto, CA
Assignee:
QUALCOMM Incorporated - San Diego CA
International Classification:
H04W 4/00
US Classification:
455522, 4554221, 370445
Abstract:
Disclosed are systems and methods for configuring a station coupled to a communication medium. Received signal powers at the station of signals transmitted from a plurality of other stations coupled to the communication medium are measured. A transmit power level of the station, used for determining powers of signals transmitted from the station, is determined based at least in part upon the received signal powers. A detection threshold of the station, used for determining which received signals to accept for further processing and which received signals to ignore, is determined based at least in part upon the received signal powers.

Terminal Selection Diversity For Powerline Communications

US Patent:
8520696, Aug 27, 2013
Filed:
Oct 27, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/913414
Inventors:
Celestino A. Corral - Ocala FL, US
Gregory A. Magin - Ocala FL, US
John Chappel - Mississauga, CA
Ehab Tahir - Oakville, CA
Syed Adil Hussain - Ocala FL, US
Wayne Daniel - Garland TX, US
William E. Earnshaw - Ocala FL, US
Assignee:
QUALCOMM Incorporated - San Diego CA
International Classification:
H04L 12/66
US Classification:
370463, 370464, 370465
Abstract:
Powerline communication networks can be subject to burst interference resulting in loss of throughput and data corruption. A transmitting network device and a receiving network device of a powerline communication network can be configured to select a best performing powerline terminal coupling configuration for powerline communications. The transmitting network device can determine performance measurements associated with each of a plurality of powerline communication channels. The transmitting network device can select a best performing powerline communication channel based on the performance measurements, and can provide an indication of the best performing powerline communication channel to the receiving network device. The transmitting and the receiving network devices can each configure their respective terminal connections to switch to the best performing powerline communication channel. Subsequent communications between the transmitting and the receiving network devices can be initiated via the best performing powerline communication channel.

Power Supply System And Method Using Analog Coupling Circuitry For Power-Line Communications

View page
US Patent:
20040130413, Jul 8, 2004
Filed:
Sep 23, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/669133
Inventors:
James Mentz - Gainesville FL, US
Bruce Denton - Ocala FL, US
Gregory Magin - Ocala FL, US
Hassan Afkhamie - Ocala FL, US
Assignee:
Intellon Corporation
International Classification:
H03H007/00
US Classification:
333/167000, 340/310010
Abstract:
Coupling circuitry implemented with passive components is added to a conventional power supply to enable communications access to a power-line network by a device designed for power-line communications (“PLC device”), in order to achieve certain benefits including minimizing costs. Conventional PLC devices access the power-line network via coupling circuitry built into the PLC device and a separate cable that connects the PLC device to a power outlet. With this invention the PLC device may use the coupling circuitry that is built into a host's existing power supply, thus providing at least two distinct advantages: 1) only one cable is necessary to connect the host device to the power-line network, and 2) the design of the PLC device is simplified since it is not connected to high-voltage line.

System For Tracking And Correcting Drift And Dispersion In Satellite Transmission Signals

View page
US Patent:
53903480, Feb 14, 1995
Filed:
Feb 12, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/835253
Inventors:
Gregory A. Magin - Ocala FL
John W. G. McMullen - Provo UT
Assignee:
Creative Digital Inc. - Orem UT
International Classification:
H04B 110
US Classification:
455 63
Abstract:
A system for tracking and correcting drift and dispersion of carrier frequencies in a transmitted signal which includes one or more carrier frequencies and a pilot frequency. The system includes one or more carrier tuners, each for receiving the transmitted signal and for deriving from the received signal and IF carrier signal representing a respective carrier frequency, a mixer for mixing the IF carrier signal and a local oscillator signal to produce a resultant IF information signal, and a demodulator for demodulating the resultant IF information signal to recover the transmitted information. The system also includes a pilot tuner for receiving a transmitted signal, the pilot tuner deriving from the received signal an IF pilot signal representing the pilot frequency, a pilot mixer for mixing the IF pilot signal and the local oscillator signal to produce a resultant pilot signal, a local oscillator responsive to a control signal level for developing a local oscillator signal having a frequency corresponding to the control signal level and for supplying the local oscillator signal to the carrier mixers and pilot mixer to compensate for any drift or dispersion of frequency of the IF carrier signals and IF pilot signal, and a frequency discriminator for detecting frequency drift and dispersion of the IF pilot signal from a predetermined center frequency and for supplying to the local oscillator a control signal whose level identifies the drift and/or dispersion.

Satellite Locating System

US Patent:
49909240, Feb 5, 1991
Filed:
Jul 20, 1989
Appl. No.:
7/382226
Inventors:
John W. G. McMullen - Provo UT
Gregory A. Magin - Ocala FL
Assignee:
Creative Digital, Inc. - Orem UT
International Classification:
H01Q 300
H04B 7185
US Classification:
342359
Abstract:
A satellite locating system for use in a satellite communication system having a transmitting station in which radio signals with signal identification data is transmitted via a satellite to a receiving station. The receiving station includes an antenna for receiving radio signals relayed by the satellite, a detector circuit located near the antenna for detecting the received signals, a signal processing circuit located remotely from the antenna for processing signals received from the detector circuit, a power supply for producing electrical power, a cable for carrying the power from the power supply to the detector circuit, a power supply for producing electrical power, a cable for carrying the power from the supply to the detector circuit and for carrying received radio signals from the detector circuit to the signal processing circuit, a modulator for causing the voltage level of the output power from the power supply to fluctuate in response to a first control signal and to increase or decrease in response to the level of a second control signal, and an energy level detector couplable to the processing circuit for producing a signal which indicates the energy level of the received radio signals. Also included is a microprocessor coupled to the signal processing circuit and the energy level detector for processing received radio signals and the signal identification data, and for supplying the first control signal to the modulator when the correct signal identification data is received and for supplying the second control signal to the modulator at a level corresponding to the energy level of the received radio signals.
