Background 1 Drift-strip position reconstruction

X-Ray and Gamma-Ray Radiation Detector

WO2015078902
 Position reconstruction from anode and drift-electrode signals with sub-pitch localization. This is the detector-position algorithm background used by the 3D CZT drift-strip concept.
Background 2 Transient cathode-signal position correction

Semiconductor detector with segmented cathode

WO2018065024  |  PCT/DK2017/050333
 Uses time-dependent cathode signals from segmented cathodes to improve interaction-position reconstruction, including events close to the cathode side. 
Background 3  ANN training and detector waveform signal processing

Semiconductor radiation sensor device and method of training an artificial neural network for signal processing

WO2024002962  |  EP 22181314.0  |  P6229EP00
 Core i-RASE ANN readout background. A detector-specific model and simulated time-varying electrode signals are used for ANN training, followed by event-level processing of sampled semiconductor-detector waveforms for position, energy, timing and event characterization.
