Abstract: Disclosed are a combination controller unit and a carrier device for handheld electronic devices. The device comprises a main section that removably attach to a handheld device around the perimeter thereof. The device further includes a first section opposite a second section, wherein each of the first and second sections folds and extends outward from the main section in a substantially wing-like fashion. Each of the first and second sections includes a plurality of control buttons for inputting commands to the handheld device. Embedded within the sections is a flex circuit that is configured to at least partially bend onto itself so as to manipulate the sections to and from an operating configuration and a storing configuration.

Abstract: A method for determining location information for a target may include generating a cyclic transmit signal having a fixed frequency slope over a substantial portion of each cycle and an operational frequency that is selected to penetrate foliage, transmitting the cyclic transmit signal without up-conversion with at least one transmit antenna, down-converting two or more return signals received from corresponding return antennas with the cyclic transmit signal to provide a corresponding set of baseband signals, extracting magnitude and phase information for each return signal as a function of range from the plurality of baseband signals, and determining a location of a target from the magnitude and phase information. A corresponding apparatus, system, and computer readable medium are also disclosed herein.
