Publication number: 20050233765Abstract: A wireless communication terminal includes a broadcast signal frequency converter that is communicatively coupled to the terminal's communication signal receiver and is configured to use its communication receiver to process received broadcast signals. In an exemplary embodiment, the converter includes a frequency shifting circuit, e.g., a block frequency converter, that shifts broadcast signal bands into communication signal bands, such that received broadcast signals are shifted into a frequency range compatible with the communication receiver's signal path. Moreover, the significant digital domain signal processing capability of the communication receiver can be used to receive broadcast television and/or radio signals, provide signal enhancements, and extract other types of information such as RDBS, IBOC, etc.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 18, 2004Publication date: October 20, 2005Inventors: Stuart Sanders, Allen East

Publication number: 20040222790Abstract: This invention improves the quality of detection and speeds up the search for threats that might be hidden in shoes worn by airport passengers and people in other environments as well as threats hidden in objects like packages, by automatically scanning for these threats when the people walk by or objects are placed in sensors capable of detecting the threats. These sensors are based primarily on an adequate implementation of the quadrupole resonance effect for threat material detection, complemented with sensors that detect the presence of conducting materials and auxiliary elements that provide the location of the threats, control the operation of the sensors and improve their effectiveness.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 17, 2004Publication date: November 11, 2004Applicant: NTZO Inc.Inventors: Yair Karmi, Ilan Zorman, Stuart Sanders Jeffery

Patent number: 6427544Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for inspecting a part to detect defects in the part. The process comprises the steps of placing a part to be inspected in an immersion tank, introducing a mixture of a penetrant dye and a supercritical carbon dioxide solvent into the immersion tank, maintaining the part immersed in the mixture for a time sufficient for the penetrant dye to penetrate any defects in the part, removing the part from the immersion tank, and inspecting the part for the presence of any defects. A system for carrying out the process is also described.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2001Date of Patent: August 6, 2002Assignee: United Technologies CorporationInventor: Stuart A. Sanders

Patent number: 5893024Abstract: A method and apparatus for reducing ingress noise (304) in the upstream frequency band and reducing power consumption in a cable communication system (200) by not allowing signals generated in the customer premise (104) to enter the upstream frequency band on the cable network (110) unless a customer premise device (102) is attempting to establish a communication link. An RF detector (206) monitors the signals on the coaxial cable for an RF signal. The comparator (208) indicates to the logic circuit (210) when the RF signal has exceeded a minimum threshold. The logic circuit (210) determines if the subscriber premise device (102) is attempting to establish a communication link. If the subscriber premise device (102) is transmitting the logic circuit (210) closes the ingress switch (212) to connect the subscriber premise device (102) to the network.Type: GrantFiled: August 13, 1996Date of Patent: April 6, 1999Assignee: Motorola, Inc.Inventors: Stuart Sanders, Dennis Michael Allen, Gary E.

Patent number: 5506027Abstract: A method for preparing a metal matrix composite (MMC) monotape from a monofilament, is provided. The monofilament is first coated with a primary coating having metal particles uniformly distributed therein to form a primary monofilament. The primary monofilament is then clad with a secondary coating of a resin binder that does not resolvate the primary coating and thus interrupt the distribution of the metal particles therein, to form a doubly coated monofilament. The doubly coated monofilament is then wound in adjacent coils on a mandrel while the secondary coating is still wet so that the coils are bound together by the secondary coating. The end of the monofilament is then cut on the mandrel and secured to a coil adjacent thereto and the so-wound monofilament is then dried on the mandrel. Then the so-wound secondary monofilament is cut across its coils on the mandrel and removed to obtain the resulting MMC monotape.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 1994Date of Patent: April 9, 1996Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Air ForceInventors: Stuart A. Sanders, Penny D. Wooton, Robert J. Surace
