Appl. No.:

10/825789

Inventors:

Forrest J. Brown - Carson City NV, US

Assignee:

Data Flow Technologies, Inc. - Carson City NV

International Classification:

H04L 27/04

US Classification:

375300, 375268

Abstract:

A method for generating a substantially sinusoidal waveform containing encoded digital data having one of a first value and a second value at selected phase angles θcomprises generating the waveform having an amplitude Y defined by a first function at phase angles lying outside of regions having a range Δθ beginning at each phase angle θ, said first function being Y=sin θ; generating the waveform having an amplitude Y defined by the first function at phase angles lying inside the regions having a range of Δθ beginning at each phase angle θwhere data of the first value is to be encoded; and generating the waveform having an amplitude Y defined by a second function at phase angles lying inside the regions having a range of Δθ associated with each phase angle θwhere data of the second value is to be encoded, the second function being different from Y=sin θ.

Assignee:

Pinyon Technologies, Inc. - Reno NV

International Classification:

H01Q 13/10

US Classification:

343770, 343754

Abstract:

A high gain, steerable phased array antenna includes multiple oblong slots. For each of the oblong and preferably rectangular slots, an electrical microstrip feed line is disposed within a parallel plane to the slot, and extends in the short dimension of the slot across the center of its long dimension. The microstrip feed lines and corresponding oblong slots form magnetically coupled LC resonance elements. A main feed line couples with the microstrip feed lines. Delay circuitry is used to electronically steer the antenna by selectively changing signal phases on the microstrip feed lines. One or more processors operating based on program code continuously or periodically determine a preferred signal direction and control the delay circuitry to steer the antenna in the preferred direction. The preferred signal direction is determined based on a directional throughput determination.
