Abstract: This spectrum protection system enables spectrum sharing that protects Earth Exploration-Satellite Services (EESS) observations, which allows for uninterrupted weather forecasting, from terrestrial operations that operate near or within EESS frequency bands without cumbersome restrictions on telecommunications (telecom) providers. The system calculates the satellite observation times using a device's location recognizing that these satellites are only observing a particular location on Earth for a very small amount of time because of their orbital dynamics and scanning characteristics. Using this calculated list of observation times and comparing it to the current time input, the system then enacts a mechanism for action when EESS observations are occurring. Two simple embodiments for the mechanism for action include momentarily changing frequencies or reducing transmission power levels to prevent erroneous EESS measurements.

Abstract: The Situational Atmospheric Vectoring Equipment (abbreviated in this document as equipment) provides a system to disperse an aqueous liquid in a solid or gaseous form. In accordance with an embodiment of the invention, the equipment comprises: a pressure vessel or external source for the aqueous liquid, a mechanical pump if required, a pressure vessel for the cryogen, mechanical lines connecting the aqueous liquid and cryogen allowing for flow control, a nozzle for fluid acceleration and, optionally, a mechanical fan for dispersal. Previous inventions of this category require the proper environmental conditions are present whereas the equipment, as described in this text, does not have this limitation.
