| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 7209660 | Optical communications using heterodyne detection An optical communications system includes a receiver subsystem with at least two heterodyne receivers. The receiver subsystem receives a composite optical signal having two or more subbands of information and corresponding tones. An optical splitter splits the compo... | 04/24/2007 |
| 7054664 | Method and apparatus for providing user specific downlink beamforming in a fixed beam network The disclosed embodiments relate to a system and method for providing user specific beams in a fixed beam network, the fixed beam network comprising a plurality of fixed beams, each of the plurality of fixed beams being defined by a plurality of fixed beam correlati... | 05/30/2006 |
| 5045859 | Phase reference navigation system and method A phase reference navigation system and method employs a plurality of fixed narrow beamwidth antennas arranged to cover a predetermined angular sector and such that the patterns of adjacent antennas crossover one another at their half-power points. Each a... | 09/03/1991 |
| 4586049 | Apparatus and method for use in instrument landing system localizer and glide-slope receivers for deriving course deviation information Apparatus and method for use in instrument landing system (ILS) localizer and/or glide-slope receivers for deriving course deviation information are described. Specifically, a detected incoming ILS (localizer or glide-slope) signal is first filtered in or... | 04/29/1986 |
| 4414632 | Automatic monitoring system for radio signal The radiated signal of an instrument landing system (ILS) has several monitor probes for the radiation. For each probe the RF signal is demodulated to obtain a composite signal, from which information is extracted by sampling at specific points of one cyc... | 11/08/1983 |
| 4195300 | Device for simulating the locating signals of an ILS beacon The present invention relates to a device for simulating the locating signals of an I L S beacon, said device comprising on the one hand two chains in parallel respectively intended for generating sinusoidal modulation I L S signals, each comprising a dig... | 03/25/1980 |
| 3971026 | Multiple beam glide slope radio navigation method with two classes of beams Microwave carrier frequency energy is switched from one beam to another to provide a switched scanning beam for the glide slope function for an instrument landing system. The beams comprise a plurality of upper beams of uniform angular width in elevation ... | 07/20/1976 |
| 3946387 | Method and apparatus for adjustment of modulation course patterns in a navigational system A method and apparatus for adjusting the modulation signal levels of overlapping beams which define along points of equal signal levels within the overlap a directional axis which in turn defines a desired navigation course for an airplane or similar mane... | 03/23/1976 |
