What it concerns
The invention relates to the technical field of signal detection, and particularly discloses an online signal time phase detection method, a time phase detection unit and a closed-loop regulation and control system. The time phase detection method comprises the following steps of: operating a detection algorithm by using a plurality of detectors to detect an online signal in parallel so as to output a time phase detection result of the online signal; judging the time phase of the online signal based on each time phase detection result; wherein the time phase detection result of the online signal comprises an abnormal period and a normal period; the abnormal period comprises at least one of an amplitude abrupt change continuous abnormal period, an amplitude gradual change continuous abnormal period and an instantaneous abnormal period; the detection algorithm comprises at least one of a classification algorithm based on a minimum window and an early warning algorithm based on a zero crossing point coefficient. According to the invention, the accuracy of signal detection can be improved, and missing detection is prevented.

What the filing appears to be about, read by published rules from its title, abstract and classification codes (A61B5/369, A61B5/7235, A61B5/7267). The claims define what a patent protects, and they are not read here.
Why it matters
- Signal processing
- A decoder is only as good as the features it is given, and recordings drift and pick up noise from movement, muscle and stimulation. The problem behind it: stable features from signals that change from day to day, computed fast enough to act on.
- Stimulation
- Restoring sensation, sight or movement needs information going in, and a therapy that adapts needs to sense and stimulate at once. The problem behind it: evoking a precise, stable effect without damaging tissue or electrodes, and without blinding the recording.
Why the layer matters to the field, not a judgement of this filing. A patent family shows that protection was sought. It does not show that the technology was built, is used in a product, or works in people. The whole stack

Dates as the offices published them. Office records are in the offices' own words and are a selection: refusals, lapses and withdrawals, and records that name an owner. Each concerns one member of the family, not the family as a whole, and another member in the same office may stand. Whether a patent is in force today is not assessed.
