| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 7633182 | Bipolar pulse generators with voltage multiplication A bipolar pulse generator includes two, two-conductor transmission lines coupled together with a load positioned between the two transmission lines. Each conductor of a transmission line we define as a segment. Two segments of one transmission line are charged and s... | 12/15/2009 |
| 7590292 | Information-theoretic method for clustering and merging imprecise data An information-theoretic method clusters and merges bi-variate normal data or ‘error ellipses’ lying in a plane. Two or more error ellipses are clustered and then merged into a single error ellipse if the information lost in the merging process is sufficiently s... | 09/15/2009 |
| 7583160 | Broadband transmission line transformer A broadband transmission line impedance transformer performs impedance transformation with improved frequency response and efficiency across a wide operational bandwidth. In particular, the bandwidth of a transmission line 2:1 impedance transformer may be significan... | 09/01/2009 |
| 7305912 | Chemically driven hydrogen gun An electrothermal gun uses an apparatus for generating high gas pressure. The apparatus includes a receiver having a combustion chamber for holding a propellant which produces a gas component and a particle component when the propellant undergoes an exothermic chemi... | 12/11/2007 |
| 7218571 | Magnetically driven underwater pulse generator An apparatus and method for magnetically generating an underwater high pressure pulse of sufficient strength to destroy underwater threats utilizes a pair of electrically conductive elements. The electrically conductive elements are arranged substantially parallel w... | 05/15/2007 |
| 7028807 | Non-explosive acoustic source A non-explosive acoustic source utilizes the combustion of aluminum and water to generate an acoustic pulse. The operation of the non-explosive acoustic source relies on a water/aluminum reaction to generate a burst pressure. The source may be deployed as a single c... | 04/18/2006 |
