20100085246 | Transceiver module for satellite antenna - A transceiver module for a satellite antenna comprises a base and a cover. The base includes a transducer extending between a first end plate and a second end plate in a first direction, a first filter portion including a number or first grooves extending in the first direction and arranged along a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, and a waveguide to guide signals toward a third end plate. The cover serves as a second filter portion for the transceiver module and includes a number of second grooves arranged along the second direction. The base includes the transducer, the first filter portion and the waveguide as an integral member. | 04-08-2010 |
20120026032 | CROSS-POLARIZATION COMPONENT CANCELLATION - A system includes a remote station configured to transmit a first signal having a co-polarization component and a first cross-polarization component. A satellite is configured to receive the first signal and transmit a repeated signal that substantially includes the first signal. A monitoring station is configured to isolate the repeated signal received from the satellite. Isolating the repeated signal generates a second signal having the co-polarization component, the first cross-polarization component, and a second cross-polarization component. The monitoring station is further configured to substantially reduce the second cross-polarization component of the second signal. A method includes receiving a signal having a co-polarization component and a plurality of cross-polarization components, manipulating the co-polarization component, and introducing the manipulated co-polarization component to the plurality of cross-polarization components. | 02-02-2012 |
20120119946 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TESTING PERFORMANCE OF TRANSPONDER - Disclosed is a satellite performance monitoring system. The satellite performance monitoring system may include a satellite communication controlling apparatus that is installed outdoors to transmit a test signal for measuring a performance of a satellite transponder to the satellite transponder and thereby receive a test response signal from the satellite transponder, and to transmit a reference signal to the satellite transponder and thereby receive a reference response signal from the satellite transponder; and a satellite performance monitoring apparatus that is installed indoors to generate the test signal and the reference signal, to generate a frequency response characteristic with respect to the satellite transponder using the test response signal, to compute a signal change amount occurring due to a weather condition using the reference signal and the reference response signal, and to apply the computed signal change amount to the frequency response characteristic. | 05-17-2012 |
20130002476 | SYSTEM FOR TRACKING SHIPS AT SEA - The system comprises terminals that are mounted onto a predetermined number of feeder vessels, comprises means for detecting identification signals sent by surrounding ships, and moreover comprises means for recording identification information that include the detected identification signals and the current position of the feeder vessel. Said system also comprises a system for transmitting data via satellites, said data transmitting system making it possible to transmit data between the terminals and a monitoring center, said monitoring center including a means for generating requests intended for the terminals in order to ask said terminals to provide the recorded identification information. Said monitoring center also includes a means for analyzing the received identification information. | 01-03-2013 |
20150355310 | METROLOGY INSTRUMENT SYSTEM AND METHOD OF OPERATING - A system and method is provided for determining the geographic location of a three-dimensional metrology instrument. The three-dimensional metrology instrument includes a geographic location determination circuit, such as a GPS. The geographic location determination circuit allows the metrology instrument to synchronize the instruments internal clock to allow cooperative measurements with multiple metrology instruments. The geographic location determination circuit further allows for automatic localization of configuration parameters of the metrology instrument. The geographic location determination circuit still further allows for the recording of location when predetermined environmental events occur. | 12-10-2015 |
20160126625 | INDOOR SATELLITE COMMUNICATION - A system for obstructed satellite communication that comprises an outdoor satellite antenna adapted to receive and transmit an electromagnetic satellite signal at a radiation frequency with a geosynchronous satellite, wherein the outdoor satellite antenna is directed towards the geosynchronous satellite along a line of sight, at least one directional antenna adapted to receive and transmit an obstructed electromagnetic signal at same the radiation frequency, wherein each of the at least one directional antenna comprises a feedhorn that is parallel to the line of sight and opposite in direction from the geosynchronous satellite and wherein the at least one directional antenna is adapted to be mounted on a far side of a physical obstruction away from the geosynchronous satellite, and a relay amplifier device adapted to send and receive the electromagnetic satellite signal and the obstructed electromagnetic signal between respective the outdoor satellite antenna and the at least one directional antenna. | 05-05-2016 |
