ALEXANDRIA, Va., March 26 -- United States Patent no. 12,259,416, issued on March 25, was assigned to The University of New Hampshire (Durham, N.H.).

"Techniques for empirical mode decomposition (EMD)-based noise estimation" was invented by Mahdi H. Al-Badrawi (Durham, N.H.), Nicholas J. Kirsch (Portsmouth, N.H.) and Bessam Z. Al-Jewad (Madbury, N.H.).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "An Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD)-based noise estimation process is disclosed herein that allows for blind estimations of noise power for a given signal under test. The EMD-based noise estimation process is non-parametric and adaptive to a signal, which allows the EMD-based noise estimation process to operate wi...
