  • Omnidirectional microstrip antenna
    Patent number: 4323900
    Abstract: An electrically short, omnidirectional antenna formed with a strip conduc helically wound about the outside of a cylindrical ground plane. A layer (ideally, a very thick layer) of a nonconducting material preferably with a low dielectrical constant (i.e., .epsilon..sub.r .perspectiveto.1.0) separates the microstrip from the ground plane.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 1, 1979
    Date of Patent: April 6, 1982
    Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy
    Inventors: Albert D. Krall, John W. McCorkle, John F. Scarzello, Albert M. Syeles
  • Self-powered vehicle detection system
    Patent number: 4302746
    Abstract: An improved self-powered vehicle detector (SPVD) uses a two-axis magnetomr to sense a vehicle's magnetic signature and then telemeter vehicle presence information to a roadside receiver. The SPVD system includes digital nulling loops to cancel D.C. offset changes in the magnetometic output, a multi-tone code transmitter to transmit vehicle presence and SPVD condition signal, and an omnidirectional microstrip antenna to simplify installation and maintenance of the SPVD.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 1, 1980
    Date of Patent: November 24, 1981
    Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy
    Inventors: John F. Scarzello, Daniel S. Lenko, Albert D. Krall, Wayne R. Grine, Robert E. Brown, George W. Usher, Milton K. Mills, Albert M. Syeles
  • Embedded dielectric rod antenna
    Patent number: 4274097
    Abstract: A compact, directional antenna element for achieving narrow beamwidths and ide bandwidths. The element is formed from a polyrod having a high dielectric constant embedded in a wave guide made of a second medium having a dielectric constant slightly lower than that of the rod.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 21, 1980
    Date of Patent: June 16, 1981
    Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy
    Inventors: Albert D. Krall, Albert M. Syeles
  • Method of bonding gold films to non-electrically conducting oxides and product thereby obtained
    Patent number: 4066819
    Abstract: A microstrip board comprising a gold film which contains about at least 1/2 weight per cent of aluminum bonded to a non-electrical conducting oxide is prepared by simultaneously evaporating the gold and aluminum onto the non-electrical conducting oxide and thereafter optionally heating the film thus formed.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 21, 1971
    Date of Patent: January 3, 1978
    Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy
    Inventors: Wallace E. Anderson, Albert M. Syeles, Albert D. Krall
  • Conformal radar antenna
    Patent number: 4063243
    Abstract: A conformal electronically scanned antenna array system utilizing an inve Butler matrix in combination with directive antenna elements. The system provides a simple and inexpensive device for scanning an elemental array without the problems of output frequency shift or mutual coupling between antenna elements.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 27, 1975
    Date of Patent: December 13, 1977
    Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy
    Inventors: Wallace E. Anderson, Albert D. Krall, Albert M. Syeles, Oscar J. Vansant
  • Wide bandwidth phase scanning with simple controls
    Patent number: 3953852
    Abstract: A modified Huggin's Scanner whose tunable signal bandwidth can be broadened ithout affecting the beam position and whose output beam direction is dependent on the control of a resistor. Two separate voltage controlled oscillators are utilized in this system in addition to modifying the input frequency controls to the scanner.
