US Patent Issued to The Regents of the University of California on Sept. 23 for "Switching interval modulation with pulse encoded transitions" (California Inventors)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., Sept. 23 -- United States Patent no. 12,425,108, issued on Sept. 23, was assigned to The Regents of the University of California (Oakland, Calif.).

"Switching interval modulation with pulse encoded transitions" was invented by Cameron Hill (Goleta, Calif.) and James F. Buckwalter (Santa Barbara, Calif.).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A method for switching interval modulation includes modulating an RF input data signal while generating and inserting additional pulses in transitions of the data signal. The additional pulses are structured to shift transition noise into higher order harmonics. Higher order harmonics are easily filtered. The generating is conducted in the digital...
