Joseph B. Gencorelli has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Near field antenna measurement systems and methods
    Patent number: 5410319
    Abstract: A field monitor in the near field receives an antenna signal which approximates that which would be received by the monitor if located in the far field. In one aspect of the invention, the antenna signal is produced by an array of spaced apart receiving elements. In another aspect of the invention, the signal received from a near field sampling antenna is passed through a signal processor having the necessary characteristics to construct from the sample a signal corresponding to that which would have been received in the far field. Antenna element arrays are also used as plane wave sources permitting antenna testing with a radiating path length of one-eighth or one-quarter of the far field distance. Compact indoor antenna test ranges are also provided.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 22, 1993
    Date of Patent: April 25, 1995
    Assignee: Hazeltine Corporation
