Patent number: 12009915Abstract: A signal-of-interest is received by using a first and second planar electrically conductive disc to define an antenna. The antenna produces RF signal outputs at three output ports Ex, Ey and Ez, each having a different associated gain pattern and polarization response. At least one null is automatically asserted in a pattern defined by the antenna in a specified direction by selectively weighting a gain and a phase of the RF signals respectively produced from the three output ports and then combining the RF signals to produce a first receiver signal output.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 2022Date of Patent: June 11, 2024Assignee: Eagle Technology, LLCInventors: Francis E. Parsche, Kenneth J. Hendrickson

Patent number: 11884550Abstract: Shaped gel articles that are formed within a mold cavity and that retain the size and shape of the mold cavity upon removal from the mold cavity, sintered articles prepared from the shaped gel articles, and methods of making the sintered articles are provided. The shaped gel articles are formed from a casting sol that contains colloidal silica particles that are treated with a surface modification composition that includes a silane surface modification agent having a radically polymerizable group. The sintered article has a shape identical to the mold cavity (except in regions where the mold cavity was overfilled) and to the shaped gel article but reduced in size proportional to the amount of isotropic shrinkage.Type: GrantFiled: August 16, 2017Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: 3M Innovative Properties CompanyInventors: Kathleen M.
