Appl. No.:

16/587217

Inventors:

- CHICAGO IL, US
John Baldauf - Redondo Beach CA, US
Louis R. Fermelia - Beverly Hills CA, US
Daniel Mathews - Chicago IL, US

Assignee:

THE BOEING COMPANY - CHICAGO IL

International Classification:

H01Q 3/22
H01Q 3/28

Abstract:

A system includes a direct radiating array antenna and one or more processors. The antenna includes an array of elements configured to radiate radiofrequency (RF) energy to form a beam having multiple frequency channels. The one or more processors are configured to generate an excitation plan for powering the elements to form the beam. The excitation plan assigns multiple corresponding beamforming coefficients to each element in a group of the elements. Each beamforming coefficient designates power allocated to the assigned element for radiating RF energy at an associated frequency channel. The excitation plan provides a substantially uniform power distribution among the elements in the group, and at least some of the elements in the group have different allocations of power among the multiple frequency channels of the beam than other elements in the group.

Appl. No.:

14/570980

Inventors:

- Chicago IL, US
Parthasarathy Ramanujam - Chicago IL, US
Daniel F. Mathews - Chicago IL, US

International Classification:

H01Q 3/40
H01Q 15/14
H01Q 25/00

Abstract:

Systems, methods, and apparatus for re-pointing at least one beam are disclosed. In one or more embodiments, the disclosed method involves receiving and/or transmitting, with at least one feed, electromagnetic (EM) energy towards a non-parabolic reflector. In at least one embodiment, reflected EM energy that is reflected from the non-parabolic reflector originates from and/or generates at least one beam. The method further involves rotating, at least one feed, from at least one first angular position to at least one second angular position, such that at least one beam shifts from at least one first coverage location to at least one second coverage location.

US Classification:

206511, 229199, 206740, 229918

Abstract:

A modular packaging system for shipping and displaying palletized products is provided. The packaging system comprises a plurality of vertically stacked trays for holding the products and corner posts extending between vertically adjacent trays for spacing and supporting the trays. The corner posts and trays are locked together in a number of ways to strengthen and stabilize the system. The system is strong enough not only to support the weight of the products on the trays and withstand the vibration and impact forces that can occur during shipping, but to withstand the weight of one or more units stacked on top.
