Abstract: A projectile propulsion system includes a launch tube, multiphase material, and a pressure barrier member. The launch tube has an interior cavity, the multiphase material disposed therein. The launch tube also has an opening to receive the multiphase material. The pressure barrier member seals the opening while the multiphase material is disposed in the interior cavity of the launch tube so as to allow the launch tube to be pressurized. When the pressure barrier member is broken, a shock wave allows the contents of the interior cavity, such as a projectile, to be expelled from the tube with a high velocity and force.

Abstract: A sensor system and method for detecting the presence of one or more target substances reacting with one or more target recognition element types for producing an electrical charge detectable by a differential pair of field effect transistors that provide increased sensitivity by minimizing common mode effects on the differential pair. The differential pair is controlled by optimization algorithms in a digital signal processor that reads and store electrical characteristics of the differential pair and maintains the differential pair at optimal operating points based on continuously monitoring the differential pair. One or more target recognition element types are disbursed over a sensor gate area of the differential pair that detects one or more signature signals created by the binding of one or more target substances and the target recognition element types. The detected signature signals are compared with a library of stored signature signals for determining the identity of the target substances.

The deployment of a set of sensor units as a group results in a distributed detecting, discriminating, and alerting network. Distribution of the sensor units facilitates the on-the-spot detection of different biological substances such as viruses, bacteria, spores, allergens, and other toxins that can be suspended in multiple media (air, liquid, blood, etc.). Besides detection/sensing, the individual sensor units perform: data acquisition, data development, data storage, statistical analysis, and data transmission.

Abstract: A quadrature phase modulation receiver for a spread spectrum communications system includes a mixer for mixing a received spread spectrum signal with a heterodyne signal to convert the frequency of the received signal to an intermediate frequency. A regulated oscillators module is coupled to the receiver for producing the heterodyne signal and signal equal to the intermediate frequency signal. A frequency multiplier circuit is coupled to the mixer for receiving the intermediate frequency signal and multiplying the frequency of the signal by a predetermined multiplication factor. An oscillator control signal is produced based on the frequency multiplied signal to maintain synchronization between the receiver and the transmitter.

Abstract: A method and system for maintaining synchronization and identifying received codewords in a spread spectrum communication system is disclosed. According to the method and system, a spread spectrum transmitter divides information being transmitted into pairs of tetrads. The transmitter then substitutes modulating codes selected from first and second groups of modulating codes for each pair of tetrads. The bit stream consists of codewords alternatingly selected from the first and second code groups. The bit stream does not contain any codes from the first and second groups other than the selected codes in the selected positions. The transmitter modulates a carrier using the modulating codes and transmits the signal to a spread spectrum receiver. The spread spectrum receiver synchronizes itself with the incoming signal and identifies the transmitted information by detecting the alternating sequence of codewords from the first and second code groups.
