Estimated Total Annual (Non-hour) 

Respondent Cost Burden: $95. There are 

no capital start-up costs, maintenance 

costs or filing fees associated with this 

information collection. There are, 

however, postage costs. 

The public may submit the 

complaints in this collection to the 

USPTO by mail through the United 

States Postal Service. If these documents 

are sent by first-class mail, a certificate 

of mailing for each piece of 

correspondence, stating the date of 

deposit or transmission to the USPTO, 

may also be included. 

The USPTO expects that the 

complaints will be mailed to the USPTO 

with first-class postage, at an average 

cost of 63 cents. The USPTO estimates 

that up to 150 responses may be 

submitted by first-class mail, for a 

postage cost of $95 per year. 

Therefore, this information collection 

has a total of $95 in annual (non-hour) 

respondent cost burden. 

IV. Request for Comments 

Comments are invited on: (a) Whether 

the proposed collection of information 

is necessary for the proper performance

Licensing of U.S. Patent Application 

Concerning a Coherent Radar and 

Ladar Polarimeter 

AGENCY: Department of the Army, DoD. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with 37 CFR 

404.6 and 404.7, announcement is made 

of the availability for licensing of the 

invention set forth in U.S. Patent

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

invention pertains to determining the 

state of polarization of an 

electromagnetic signal. A polarimeter 

includes a receiver that receives a first 

polarization (P1) of the signal and splits 

the first polarization of the signal into 

the in-phase (IP1) and quadrature (QP1) 

components, and receives a second 

poplarization (P2) of the signal and 

splits the second polarization of the 

signal into the in-phase (IP1) and 

quadrature (QP2) components. The 

polarimeter may also include a 

processor that receives each of the inphase and quadrature components ((IP1), 

(QP1), (IP2), and (QP2)) of the first and 

second polarizations and determines the 

Stokes polarization vector components 

(s0, s1, s2, and s3) of the signal.
