Abstract: The present invention relates to a personal awareness system that provides a user physical health/wellness/welfare safety as well as online digital safety by blocking inappropriate digital content. The personal awareness system comprises a network protection appliance for use on a local area network (LAN), a software application that can be used on a mobile computing device, a cloud-based remote data processing resource to administer the system, and a monitor computing device that an observer can use to monitor, track, and receive alerts related to the user. The system can support many users individually as well as groups of users. In operation, sensors associated with the mobile computing device monitor the health, wellness, and location of the user and digital filter rules suppress inappropriate digital content from user access to provide digital safety. The mobile computing device can seamlessly transition between LAN environments and wireless mobile environments.

Abstract: Development of Millimeter Wave Devices containing MMIC's is expedited by use of a new package for the MMIC's and associated electrical components that define the functional circuit. The package includes a base plate and a plurality of metal inserts removeably fastened to the base plate. The inserts are spaced apart and contain a profiled edge with the profiled edge in one in confronting spaced relationship with that of another of the inserts. Together with the backplate, the profiled edges define elongated cavities, serving as two of the cavities side walls. The cavities serve as a repository for the MMIC devices and some of the additional components and stripline. Should extraneous resonances be discovered, the insert can be removed and adjusted in size and profile, and replaced, thereby adjusting the cavity without disturbing the electronic components or MMIC's which are secured to the back plate.
