Abstract: Central package management (CPM) across code repositories is disclosed. In an example, a primary “props” file in a Git submodule references a version of a NuGet package. A “.props” file in a root directory of each of multiple code repositories references the primary props file in the Git submodule. Each of multiple software projects in the code repositories has a package reference to the NuGet package without a reference to the version of the NuGet package. When each of the multiple the software projects is built (e.g., compiled), the build process automatically uses the version of the NuGet package that is identified in the Git submodule. This permits a single change to the version number of the NuGet package in the Git submodule to be propagated across multiple projects spanning multiple code repositories.

Abstract: A multi-beam transmit/receive device comprises a Circular Polarization Frequency Selective Surface (CPFSS) unit, a transmit (Tx) flat array antenna assembly with multi-bean flat array antenna and a receive (Rx) flat array antenna assembly with multi-bean flat array antenna. The Tx multi-beam antenna is poisoned with respect to the CPFSS unit so that its transmission is configured to be reflected by the CPFSS unit to a reflector and to be reflected by the reflector in a defined direction and the Rx multi-beam antenna is poisoned with respect to the CPFSS unit so that transmission that hits the reflector from the defined direction and passes through the CPFSS unit focuses on the Rx multi-beam antenna.

Abstract: Methods to improve the efficiency of satellite transmission by coordinating the use of corresponding channels on adjacent satellites. Improvements over the current state of the art range from 130% to 1000%, yielding in the best case full utilization of potential bandwidth.

Abstract: A low profile receiving and/or transmitting antenna includes an array of antenna elements that collect and coherently combine millimeter wave or other radiation. The antenna elements are physically configured so that radiation at a predetermined wavelength band impinging on the antenna at a particular angle of incidence is collected by the elements and collected in-phase. Two or more mechanical rotators may be disposed to alter the angle of incidence of incoming or outgoing radiation to match the particular angle of incidence.

Abstract: Plural panelized phased arrays, possibly including electronic tilt, are controlled in physical orientation to present a reduced physical profile. Each panel may include a non-linear shaped aperture which physically mates with other shaped apertures to maintain a composite tapered aperture for reduced side lobes. Long delay compensation to equalize RF radiator element signal propagation times improves bandwidth.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for processing information, e.g., audio, speech, video or image information, for transmission in a communication system. In an illustrative embodiment, a set of bit streams are generated from an audio information signal. The set of bit streams may be, e.g., a total of four bit streams generated by separating each of two multiple description bit streams, corresponding to separate representations of the audio information signal, into first and second class bit streams. The first and second class bit streams associated with the first multiple description bit stream may then be transmitted in respective first and second subbands of a first sideband of an FM host carrier, while the first and second class bit streams associated with the second multiple description bit stream are transmitted in respective first and second subbands of a second sideband of the FM host carrier.

Abstract: The present invention provides a speech recognizer that creates and updates the equalization vector as input speech is provided to the recognizer. The present invention includes a speech analyzer which transforms an input speech signal into a series of feature vectors or observation sequence. Each feature vector is then provided to a speech recognizer which modifies the feature vector by subtracting a previously determined equalization vector therefrom. The recognizer then performs segmentation and matches the modified feature vector to a stored model vector which is defined as the segmentation vector. The recognizer then, from time to time, determines a new equalization vector, the new equalization vector being defined based on the difference between one or more input feature vectors and their respective segmentation vectors.
