  • Patent number: 11636200
    Abstract: The following relates generally to defense mechanisms and security systems. Broadly, systems and methods are disclosed that detect an anomaly in an Embedded Mission Specific Device (EMSD). Disclosed approaches include a meta-material antenna configured to receive a radio frequency signal from the EMSD, and a central reader configured to receive a signal from the meta-material antenna. The central reader may be configured to: build a finite state machine model of the EMSD based on the signal received from the meta-material antenna; and detect if an anomaly exists in the EMSD based on the built finite state machine model.

  • Patent number: 11426599
    Abstract: A neuromodulator includes one or more coil sets. Each of the coil sets has three coils aligned to produce magnetic and electric fields in three different directions. A plurality of conductors couple the coils of the one or more coil sets to one or more input signals such that each of the coils is independently activated via an individually selectable current applied through the conductors. The individual activation creates a resultant field that is a combination of the magnetic and electric fields in three different directions for each of the coil sets.

  • Patent number: 11355854
    Abstract: Examples disclosed herein relate to methods and apparatuses for a radiating structure to radiate a transmission signal, where the radiating structure incorporates reactance control elements to change a reactance of transmission lines and/or radiating unit cell elements, and a resonant coupler to isolate the transmission signal from a reactance control signal to the reactance control elements. A reactance control signal, such as a bias voltage, controls the reactance of transmission lines of the transmission array structure and/or the radiating unit cell elements so as to change the phase of the transmission signal, thereby steering a beam of the transmission signal. The reactance control elements may be incorporated into a microstrip within the transmission lines.
