Binary Correlator for Electromagnetic Signal Patterns

Modulation patterns recognized with extensive calculations. Set of shift registers contains patterns of 1's and 0's representing presence or absence of received signal in designated time/frequency bins. Pattern in shift registers correlated with pattern of expected signal by shifting each cell to right according to expected pattern and summing shift-register outputs in analog summing network. Useful in applications requiring identification of smaller pattern of 1-bit data within larger matrix of such data.

Clinical ophthalmic ultrasound improvements

The use of digital synthetic aperture techniques to obtain high resolution ultrasound images of eye and orbit was proposed. The parameters of the switched array configuration to reduce data collection time to a few milliseconds to avoid eye motion problems in the eye itself were established. An assessment of the effects of eye motion on the performance of the system was obtained. The principles of synthetic techniques are discussed. Likely applications are considered.
