| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 5808895 | Method and apparatus for low signal to noise ratio instantaneous phase measurement The system and method of the present invention generates high resolution phase measurements without the high processing and memory overhead requirements found in prior art circuits and methods. Each signal sample (of N samples) is divided further into J s... | 09/15/1998 |
| 5557040 | Method and apparatus for precipitation detection and differentiation A direct backscatter technique provides for the detection of precipitation in a measuring volume. A source light beam is projected into the measuring volume. Light in the volume, including source light scattered from any precipitation within the volume, i... | 09/17/1996 |
| 5547327 | Method and apparatus for continuously determining the inclination and draft of a waterborne floating vessel to enable automatic loading of the vessel Pressure sensors positioned at strategic points on a floating vessel below the surface of the water provide depth information to a shore based control computer via wireless telemetry. The pressure sensors provide continuous information regarding the draft... | 08/20/1996 |
| 5289391 | Method and apparatus for optimum signal burst detection The present invention provides a time efficient and practical method for signal burst detection. The signal is first applied to a set of linear transformations and input to a one-bit analog to digital converter and stored. The stored signal is then correl... | 02/22/1994 |
| 4986659 | Method for measuring the size and velocity of spherical particles using the phase and intensity of scattered light An improved apparatus and method for determining the change in the effective cross-section of a sample volume defined by two crossed laser beams is disclosed. A laser generation means is provided for generating a pair of coherent laser beams and means are... | 01/22/1991 |
| 4854705 | Method and apparatus to determine the size and velocity of particles using light scatter detection from confocal beams An apparatus for sizing particles, droplets, bubbles, or the like employing laser light scattering is disclosed. A laser is used for generating two beams of light having different wavelengths or polarizations. The beams with different wavelengths may be g... | 08/08/1989 |
