Abstract: Radar intercept hardware is capable of receiving and storing multiple radar signals in any context including air, land, sea or space domains as radar pulse data. However, without a priori knowledge of all of the radar emitters captured by such radar interceptors, the information or intelligence that has been gathered is of little use until such radar signals are separated or deinterleaved from the radar pulse data. The present invention is directed to model-based radar signal deinterleaver systems and methods. The characteristics of known radar models, particularly pulse repetition intervals, pulse width, time of arrival and radio frequency are used by the various embodiments of the system and method of the present invention to extract out the known signals and leave the unknown or residue signals for adjudication by a subject matter expert.

Abstract: A work machine, such as an excavator or a backhoe, has a linkage of articulating arms for maneuvering a changeable work tool. Position and motion sensors and force sensors within the linkage provide data for a controller to determine a location of the work tool and down force applied from the linkage onto the work tool during a job. Based on characteristics of the work tool, an acceptable range of down force applied by the linkage may be assigned. If down force reaches an outer bound of the acceptable range during the job, the controller may generate an alert for the operator or adjust action by the work tool to maintain the down force within the acceptable range. Depending on the work tool and job, the down-force control can help improve work quality and guard against tool damage from dry-fire or overload conditions.

Abstract: A work machine, such as an excavator or a backhoe, has a linkage of articulating arms for maneuvering a changeable work tool. Position and motion sensors and force sensors within the linkage provide data for a controller to determine a location of the work tool and down force applied from the linkage onto the work tool during a job. Before performing a grading operation, an operator may request level control for the work tool at a benchmark orientation and down-force control at a target down force. After a controller applies the target down force with the work tool at the benchmark orientation, an operator may traverse the work tool along a path radial to the work machine. While maintaining the benchmark orientation for the work tool, the controller may adjust one or more forces on the linkage to also maintain the target down force during the traversal of the work tool, leading to simpler functionality for the operator and higher quality work product.
