Abstract: Shielding of electrical wires from radiated energy and lightning is critical to protecting the integrity of electronic components. A shield termination electrical connector assembly uses a termination adapter having elongated termination holes and feed channels leading into the termination holes to facilitate the process of guiding the shields into the proper termination slots. Moreover, flexible braided wires may be connected to the shields and terminated in the termination adapter. These flexible braided wires are compressed in the termination adapter instead of the shields, thus preventing damage to the shields to ensure their functionality.

Abstract: A system for determining high accuracy relative position solutions between two moving platforms is disclosed. This system is particularly suited for aircraft carrier approach and landing operations. More specifically, a system is disclosed that modifies existing Kinematic Carrier Phase Tracking (KCPT) solutions, which are useful for solutions between a moving platform and a fixed ground based platform, to provide an acceptable relative solution vector in aircraft carrier approach and landing operations, or other environments involving multiple moving platforms. The system disclosed provides a relative KCPT (RKCPT) process that achieves significant advantages over old KCPT process technology. To do so, the system utilizes multiple independent Kalman filters linked to multiple independent numerical ambiguity estimators to provide multiple sets of floating and fixed ambiguities for an accurate solution vector determination.

Abstract: A rising table assembly including an extension assembly and tabletop. The table may be stowable beneath a floor surface. The table assembly is typically extendible through an opening in the floor surface to a position above the floor. A set of closure doors may be provided to act as a floor surface when the table assembly is in stowed position beneath the floor. The table assembly is particularly suitable for use in vehicles such as aircraft, trains, motor homes, or boats. The table assembly may be of use in other situations where space is a premium.
