| 20120019422 | Damage Resistant Antenna - The invention provides a damage resistant antenna using a super-elastic flexible metallic material to form antenna radiating structures with a high damage threshold. The invention accounts for the electro-magnetic properties of the super-elastic flexible metallic material in the design of the shape and dimensions needed to form antenna radiating structures with consistent performance after repeated deploy, stow, and transport cycling of the antenna. | 01-26-2012 |
| 20110001655 | DETERMINING PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF STRUCTURAL MEMBERS IN DYNAMIC MULTI-PATH CLUTTER ENVIRONMENTS - A method for determining a physical property of a structural member in a dynamic multi-path clutter environment is given. The method comprises transmitting an RF interrogation signal to a wireless sensor operable to receive the RF interrogation signal, produce a reference signal and a measurement signal, and transmit the reference signal and the measurement signal in the dynamic multi-path clutter environment. The reference signal is delayed by a first time delay and the measurement signal is delayed by a second time delay that is a function of the physical property to be determined. The first and second time delays are associated by a known relationship defined by the wireless sensor. The method further comprises receiving the transmitted reference signal and the transmitted measurement signal and comparing the transmitted reference signal and the transmitted measurement signal in the time domain. Finally, the method comprises using this comparison to determine the physical property of the structural member. | 01-06-2011 |
| 20100095740 | DETERMINING PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF STRUCTURAL MEMBERS IN MULTI-PATH CLUTTER ENVIRONMENTS - A method for determining a physical property of an object in a multi-path clutter environment comprises transmitting an RF interrogation signal to a wireless sensor physically coupled to the object or the fluid in the multi-path clutter environment, wherein the wireless sensor is operable to receive the RF interrogation signal, produce a reference signal and a measurement signal, and transmit the reference signal and the measurement signal in the multi-path clutter environment. The reference signal and measurement signal are delayed by the wireless sensor by an amount of time that may be a function of the unknown physical property. The method also comprises receiving the transmitted reference signal and the transmitted measurement signal and comparing them in the time domain in order to determine the unknown physical property of the object or the fluid. | 04-22-2010 |
