Abstract: A non-linear FM pulse compression system includes a non-linear FM transmitter adapted to receive an input signal and transmit an output signal. The non-linear FM transmitter is adapted to modulate the frequency of the output signal by at least one of the following: increasing the frequency of the output signal as a logarithmic function of the frequency of samples in the input signal; modulating the frequency of the output signal in inversely proportional relationship to the frequency of samples in the input signal; and modulating the frequency of the output signal according to a random permutation of the frequency of the input signal. At least one antenna interfaces with the non-linear FM transmitter. A non-linear FM receiver interfacing with the at least one antenna. The non-linear FM receiver is adapted to auto-correlate the output signal with a return signal.

Abstract: A windmill generator includes a windmill hub; at least one windmill blade carried by the windmill hub; a rotor carried by at least one of the windmill hub and the windmill blade and having a plurality of rotor magnets with dominant north poles and dominant south poles, respectively; and a stator having a plurality of stator coils disposed adjacent to the rotor magnets of the rotor, with the rotor rotatable with respect to the stator.

Abstract: There are disclosed processes and systems for establishing secure, communication channels between computing devices. The computing devices include respective agents which verify the relative identity of one another and thereby authenticate the communication channel. The agents continue to play a role in the communications to ensure that the communication channel is secure.

Abstract: The embodiments of the invention generally relate to a novel magnet arrangement to further enhance the performance of the array. The new arrangement of magnets (for example, five configurations) can result in significantly much higher percentage gain in magnetic flux with respect to the largest magnetic flux of a component magnet, as compared to Halbach array configurations.

Abstract: There are disclosed a method, computing device, and storage medium for establishing relative identity between a first agent on a first computing device and a second agent on a second computing device. An absolute key and a partial relative key may be generated for the first agent, wherein the absolute key and the partial relative key define a relative identity of the first agent, wherein the relative identity is unique for a relationship between the first agent and the second agent.
