  • Radio frequency scanner
    Patent number: 10879608
    Abstract: A radio frequency (RF) scanner system provided with a multi-axis articulated robot and a sensor suite positioned on a first end of the multi-axis articulated robot. The sensor suite is provided with a shield, an antenna array probe, and a surface sensor. The shield has a first side and a second side opposite the first side. The first side is configured for positioning towards an active phased array antenna. The surface sensor is configured to determine X, Y, and Z positions of the active phased array antenna.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 13, 2017
    Date of Patent: December 29, 2020
    Assignee: The Board of Regents of the University of Oklahoma
    Inventors: Jorge L. Salazar-Cerreno, Damon Andrew Schmidt, Caleb Fulton, Robert D. Palmer, Rodrigo Manuel Lebron Garcia, Alessio Mancini, Simon Thierry Pierre Duthoit, Matthew Stephen McCord, John Brent Meier, Redmond Clay Kelley

  • Radar system and methods for making and using same
    Patent number: 9417315
    Abstract: A transmitter front end circuit is described. The transmitter front end circuit is provided with a radar transmitter port, a radar receiver port, a radar amplifier, a coupler, a radar antenna input and a signal director. The radar amplifier has a low power side receiving a transmit signal having a transmit waveform modulated onto a carrier frequency from the radar transmitter port, and a high power side outputting an amplified transmit waveform suitable for transmission to a radar antenna. The coupler is coupled to the high power side of the radar amplifier to sample the amplified transmit waveform. The radar antenna input is configured to receive return signals from a radar antenna. And, the signal director selectively directs the sample of the amplified transmit waveform and the return signals to the radar receiver port.
