RIM SEMICONDUCTOR COMPANY
FILES PATENT FOR BREAKTHROUGH TECHNOLOGY
(Business Wire) – July 10, 2008 -- Rim Semiconductor Company (OTCBB:
RSMI), a company that develops technology for telecommunications
service providers, filed a non-provisional patent application on
its innovative RQAM™ technology. Rim Semi’s Cupria™ transport
processor is based on this RQAM technology, and is able to drive
data traffic at more than 40 megabits per second (Mpbs) 5,500
feet (1.67km) on 26AWG (0.40mm) telephone wire. Existing
technologies are able to drive data 15 mbps at this distance on
this wire type. Telephone companies, municipalities, and
businesses can use Cupria™ for services like IPTV, Ethernet and
monitoring.
The patent, entitled “Amplitude Modulation Decoder” was filed as
a non-provisional patent with the United States Patent and
Trademark Office. It was also filed under the Patent Cooperation
Treaty, which most of the world’s industrialized countries are a
part of. Thus, Rim Semi’s intellectual property rights are
protected across a wide geography.
Rim Semiconductor Company owns, co-owns or exclusively licenses
technology from seventeen issued patents and eleven patent
applications in the United States. All of these patents and
patent applications generally pertain to methodologies to modify
data and transmit it more efficiently on metallic media like
copper wire. RQAM™ can be combined with many of them to produce
superior semiconductor performance.
