Publication number: 20260134630Abstract: A system and method of managing a model, such as a digital twin. The method may involve receiving three-dimensional model data representative of a setting, converting the three-dimensional model data into a simplified model using a parallel processing pipeline architecture, rendering the simplified model using a three-dimensional model rendering platform, converting a view of the rendered model from a specific position at a specific angle into a streamable format, and transmitting the streamable format of the view of the rendered model to an end-user terminal over a network connection.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 6, 2026Publication date: May 14, 2026Inventors: Bryan Landsiedel, Topraj Gurung, Tianyu Liang, Sergey Milenkiy, Peter Kammer, Paul Byrne, Lance Engle, James Beattie, Ehsan Barekati, David Bond, David Black, Bryan Woods, Bret Stastny, Benjamin Molyneaux, Jeremy Swanson, Timothy Jones

Patent number: 12352793Abstract: Fractional Fourier Transform (FrFT)-based spectrum analyzers and spectrum analysis techniques are disclosed. Rather than using the standard Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), the FrFT may be used to view the signal content contained in a particular bandwidth. Usage of the FrFT in place of the frequency or time domain allows viewing of the signal in different dimensions, where “spectral” features of interest, or signal content, may appear where they were not visible in these domains before. This may allow signals to be identified and viewed in any domain within the continuous time-frequency plane, and may significantly enhance the ability to detect and extract signals that were previously hidden under interference and/or noise, provide or enhance the ability to extract signals from a congested environment, and enable operation in a signal-dense environment.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2023Date of Patent: July 8, 2025Assignee: THE AEROSPACE CORPORATIONInventors: Seema Sud, Timothy Jones
