    Abstract: Devices, systems and methods are disclosed which relate to reproducing and testing a simulation of electromagnetic propagation of multiple Radio Frequency (RF) jammers in an environment to determine the effectiveness of the jammer configuration. In some configurations, a multi-jammer simulator renders the electromagnetic propagation of a multiple jammer scenario, including multiple RF jammers onboard vehicles traveling through the environment, and records a multi-waveform output of the multiple jammer scenario to a recordable medium. A multi-waveform generator reads the multi-waveform output from the recordable medium and physically reproduces a plurality of waveforms consistent with the multi-waveform output. The plurality of waveforms is substantially similar to a physical reproduction of the multiple jammer scenario. An RF receiver, placed within a range of effectiveness of the multi-waveform generator, attempts to receive a signal from an RF transmitter during reproduction of the multi-waveform output.

  • Publication number: 20100123042
    Abstract: Devices, systems and methods are disclosed which relate to providing wing designs with payload integration capabilities on existing modularly assembled unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Exemplary embodiments of the present invention present a novel technique of adding payloads to existing UAVs while improving flight performance over existing techniques by maintaining a similar overall weight with improved aerodynamic properties. The technique includes using a reinforced foam core center wing with a fiberglass epoxy skin. A lightweight payload canopy cover integrates onto the center wing as an agnostic enclosure for payloads. The payload canopy cover may contain venting holes for the cooling of electronic payloads. The systems may also include common devices such as antennas, GPS, and batteries for use with a wide range of payloads.
