Athena Cellular Telephone

9361159 Lewis This project is funded under the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program, which is designed to provide an opportunity for small business, particularly the small high technology firm, to participate in NSF research. Phase I of the SBIR program serves as a filter to select promising proposals and determine if the firm can do high quality research. Phase II is the principal research project. Phase III is the conversion of the NSF-funded research into commercial applications and technological innovation supported by follow-on private venture capital or other non-federal financing. The focus of this Phase I project is to analyze a cellular channelizer/equalizer/detector, called the Athena Cellular Telephone. The technology is based on DS-CDMA protocol, a synergistic (patent pending) arithmetic processor design, and a highly integrated receiver design. The planned result is an extremely compact, single-chip DS-CDMA receiver which contains digital mixers, downconverters, and adaptive equalizers.***
