  • Patent number: 10978812
    Abstract: Embodiment of the present disclosure relates to a shared aperture antenna for continuous transmission of signal to ground station at two different spot frequencies. The antenna provides a broad side radiation pattern for frequency range of S band and squinted radiation pattern for frequency range of Ka band. The dual band microstrip antenna is configured on a single layer substrate, having a rectangular slot at small offset from the center on low frequency radiating patch. The positioning of radiating patch and length of high impedance microstrip feed are adjusted to fit into the slot and to get desired squint at high frequency. Two separate coaxial feeds are provided to excite the antenna independently. Third feed fulfil the termination needed by travelling wave array which increases the impedance bandwidth of antenna. A radome is provided to protect the radiating element from environment.

  • Patent number: 9754427
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure disclose a Black box with Satellite Transmitter (BSAT) for underwater vehicles. The BSAT provides a mission data backup of sunken under water vehicles and it is akin to a black box recorder of aircrafts. The BSAT comprising a sealed enclosure to receive and transmit IR and electromagnetic signals, a Global Positioning System (GPS) with an antenna to provide GPS parameters of the BSAT, a transmit antenna to transmit the GPS parameters and parameters associated with the underwater vehicle, an ejection mechanism to eject the BSAT from the underwater vehicle on detecting a pre-defined condition, by an electronic controller. The electronic controller to perform at least one of sending control signals, communicating using IR transceiver, acquire and store underwater vehicle parameters, identifying an ejection instant, acquiring and storing data GPS parameters, scheduling data transmission through a satellite after ejection of the BSAT from the underwater vehicle.
