Patent number: 12253623Abstract: Example embodiments relate to corrugated radomes for protecting and concealing components of radar units. An example radar system may include a radar unit that includes at least one antenna having a radiation pattern. The radar unit is configured to transmit a radar signal based on the radiation pattern and receive radar signals. In addition, the radar system further includes a radome located in a direction of transmission of the radiation pattern. Particularly, the radome includes a stepped surface having at least one step that includes a height equal to one-quarter of a wavelength at a frequency of operation of the radar unit. The least one step is positioned on the radome such that the at least one step causes deconstructive interference of reflections of the transmitted radar signal caused by the radome.Type: GrantFiled: May 24, 2022Date of Patent: March 18, 2025Assignee: Waymo LLCInventors: Adam Brown, Tegan Argo, Benjamin Chen

Patent number: 12225629Abstract: A wireless device system can include lighting devices, sensing devices, and other wireless devices in a wireless mesh local area network. The devices are configured for rapid provisioning with provisioned site network data by using a process in which each device stores data for a default provisioning network, and a provisioning device, for example a smart phone or other mobile device, is used to wirelessly connect with at least one of the devices in the default provisioning network, enabling distant wireless devices to be reached by relay of messages in the default provisioning network. Devices can be individually provided a new network address, for example, from the provisioned site network data, and all devices are provided remaining data from the provisioned site network data using the mesh network broadcast feature, thus provisioning and switching devices near simultaneously from the default provisioning network to the provisioned site network.Type: GrantFiled: March 9, 2022Date of Patent: February 11, 2025Assignee: RAB Lighting Inc.Inventors: Benjamin Chen, Yun Fei Xu, Xian Long Ding
