A baseband generator for the RF source generates the tones, which are applied in series to a correction filter and an up-converter to produce an output RF signal. The tones are stepped across a specified frequency bandwidth, and at each average frequency for the tones a magnitude and group delay is measured as well as a phase for the beat frequency between the tones. The resulting measurements are used to calibrate filter coefficients for the correction filter to assure amplitude flatness and phase linearity across the specified frequency bandwidth. | 05-22-2014 |

20120236379 | LADAR USING MEMS SCANNING - A scanning mirror includes a substrate that is patterned to include a mirror area, a frame around the mirror area, and a base around the frame. A set of actuators operate to rotate the mirror area about a first axis relative to the frame, and a second set of actuators rotate the frame about a second axis relative to the base. The scanning mirror can be fabricated using semiconductor processing techniques or processing methods that do not require clean room process. Drivers for the scanning mirror may employ feedback loops that operate the mirror for triangular motions. Some embodiments of the scanning mirror can be used in a LADAR system for a Natural User Interface of a computing system. | 09-20-2012 |

20110007752 | DESTINATION BASED METHODOLOGY FOR MANAGING NETWORK RESOURCES - A replicator is configured to be coupled to a first packet-based network, and a packet analysis module and a router are coupled to the replicator. The router is configured to be coupled to a second packet-based network. The replicator receives packets from the first packet-based network, passes the packets to the router, and passes a copy of the packets to the packet analysis module. The packet analysis module identifies, in a set of customers of the second packet-based network, a top usage subset. The top usage subset includes those of the customers who are using more bandwidth of the second packet-based network than other ones of the customers. The top usage subset includes at least two of the customers. The packet analysis module identifies, at an entry point of the second packet-based network, routes of packets destined for the top usage subset. The router discards a predetermined percentage of the packets destined for the top usage subset. The predetermined percentage is determined in order to reduce bandwidth utilization of the second packet-based network by a desired amount. The predetermined percentage is identical for all of the customers in the top usage subset. | 01-13-2011 |
20130074174 | FIREWALL ACCESS CONTROL WITH BORDER GATEWAY PROTOCOL ATTRIBUTES - Packets are routed from at least one internet protocol (IP) address in accordance with border gateway protocol (BGP); while carrying out the routing in accordance with the border gateway protocol (BGP), at least one border gateway protocol (BGP) attribute associated with the at least one internet protocol (IP) address is noted. A firewall policy is applied to the packets from the at least one internet protocol (IP) address based on the at least one border gateway protocol (BGP) attribute associated with the at least one internet protocol (IP) address. Techniques may be implemented, for example, on a router or on a separate firewall device coupled to a router. | 03-21-2013 |

20150177942 | Methods and Systems for Managing a Graphical User Interface - Methods and systems for managing a graphical user interface involve, for example, defining, using a processor coupled to memory, a threshold distance between windows on a display screen at which a mutual attraction between the windows is activated to draw the windows together as components of a picture of windows. Also using the processor, all windows of a same functional type that are components of the picture of windows are resized simultaneously without affecting the size of windows of other functional types that are also components of the picture of windows. Likewise using the processor, all windows on the display screen are maintained in an active state regardless of a focus of a user input device. | 06-25-2015 |
