  • Patent number: 10554451
    Abstract: Embodiments of the inventive concepts disclosed herein are directed to systems and methods for signal processing. An antenna array can receive signal information. A signal processing device can perform a time-domain-to-transform-domain transform with N transform domain bins, on the signal information. The signal processing device can determine N covariance matrices each corresponding to a respective one of the N transform domain bins. The signal processing device can group covariance matrices from the N covariance matrices into groups of M covariance matrices. Each group can correspond to a respective group of M adjacent bins from the N bins. The signal processing device can produce a combined spatial covariance matrix for each group of M covariance matrices, by performing a weighted combination of covariance matrices within the respective group of M covariance matrices. The signal processing device can calculate spatial weights from each of the spatial covariance matrices, for anti-jamming processing.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8079434
    Abstract: A motorcycle including a frame and an engine and transmission assembly coupled to the frame. The engine and transmission assembly includes at least one cylinder head assembly having a cooling port and defining a cooling passageway in fluid communication with the cooling port and passing through at least a portion of the cylinder head assembly. The motorcycle also includes a conduit coupled to the cooling port and a fan in fluid communication with the conduit and operable at an operating speed to draw air from the cooling passageway, and move air through the cooling port and through the conduit.
