  • Patent number: 10298336
    Abstract: A port isolator for an antenna having a horizontal polarization input port and a vertical polarization input port includes a first signal coupler, a signal adjuster, and a second signal coupler. The first signal coupler is configured to sample a signal received on one of the input ports of the antenna. The signal adjuster is electrically coupled to the first signal coupler. The second signal coupler is electrically coupled to the signal adjuster and the other one of the input ports of the antenna. The signal adjuster is configured to adjust a phase and an amplitude of the sampled signal based on a leakage power and a leakage phase of a leakage signal from the input port receiving the signal to the other input port. The adjusted sampled signal substantially cancels out the leakage power and leakage phase from the input port receiving the signal to the other input port.

  • Patent number: 4757426
    Abstract: The illumination system has primary and secondary light sources with a lamp current sensor control circuit for automatically switching from the primary lamp to the secondary lamp in the event the primary lamp fails. An illumination directing mirror is positioned between the light sources and directs one or the other of the light sources towards a fiber optic cable. The lamps are mounted on a movable carriage which is remotely controllable by a pneumatic cylinder. The carriage moves to alter the distance from the lamp to the port of the fiber optic cable. This controls the intensity of illumination entering the cable without changing the color temperature of the light.
