Title: Airborne geophysical measurements
Inventor: MCCRACKEN KEN G
IPC: G01V/
Filed: 2002-10-11
Abstract: This invention concerns a method of making airborne geophysical measurements.  Such measurements may be made from fixed or moving wing airplanes or dirigibles. The method comprises the following steps: taking first real time measurements from one, or more, geophysical instruments mounted in an aircraft to produce geophysical data related to the ground below that instrument.  Taking second real time measurements from navigation and mapping instruments associated with or carried by the aircraft. Computing a background response of each geophysical instrument using the second real time measurements to take account of its time varying altitude, and the time varying topography of the ground below it. Adjusting an operating or data processing condition of each geophysical instrument using the respective background response and the intrument's attitude to enhance the performance of that instrument. And, adjusting the geophysical data output for that instrument having reduced effects resulting from variations in altitude, attitude and topography.

Filed: 2001-11-16
Abstract: A matt surface (7) of a display screen (2) is converted to an optically flat surface (11), for example, via an epoxy resin coating (10) or the like which has a refractive index equal to that of the matt surface (7). Alternatively, the matt surface (7) may be removed from the screen (2), and replaced with an optically smooth surface. The matt surface may be a diffusive surface (7) formed on a birefringent film (6) of an LCD screen (2). The display screen (2) is the front screen of a multilevel three-dimensional display comprising layered screens (2, 3), and altering the surface from matt to flat reduces the blurring of displayed images.

Title: Microprocessor decoder frequency hopping spread spectrum communications receiver
Inventor: HODGES EUGENE W
IPC: H04B1/713
Filed: 2003-06-25
Abstract: The present invention is directed to a frequency hopping spread spectrum transceiver. The transceiver includes a microcontroller (110); a transmitter (120) having a voltage controlled oscillator (122), a direct digital synthesizer (124), and a power amplifier (126); and a receiver having an amplifier (128), an IF amplifier (132), a demodulator (134), and a data slicer (138).
