Abstract: A hard-target penetrating warhead (10) adapted for use with length constrained warhead payload bays. The warhead (10) includes a warhead case (12) for containing warhead explosives (22, 27). A tungsten ballast (16) is disposed within the case (12) for providing a high warhead sectional pressure upon impact of the warhead (10) on a target. A fuse (19) detonates the warhead explosives (22, 27) upon penetration of the target. The fuse (19) is housed by a fuse well (18) that is attached to the case (12) at one end. A slip fit section of the fuse well (18) provides structural support to the case (12) and prevents dislodging of the fuse well (18) and the fuse (19) from the case (12) upon warhead target impact. Explosives blowout ports (24) included in the fuse well (18) inhibit undesirable explosion or detonation of the warhead explosives (22, 27) by accidental exposure to high heat or fire. In a specific embodiment, the case (12) has a 6 caliber radius head nose (14). The explosives blowout ports (24) include main explosives blowout ports (24) for allowing the heat to burn the warhead explosives (22) and vent gases resulting from the burning. The main explosive blowout ports (24, 25) are placed around a circumference of the fuse well (18) and include nine ports having a surface area designed to minimize danger of explosion and/or detonation in the event of an accidental fire. The blowout ports (24, 25) also include booster blowout ports (25) for allowing safe burning of booster charge explosives (27) included in the fuse (19). Additionally, a special polyethelene/polyalphaolefin liner (20) lines the inside of the case (12) and improves fast cook-off safety performance. In the illustrative embodiment, the warhead explosives (22) include PBXN-109. The case (12) includes a textured or grooved surface that facilitates bonding of the ballast (16) to the case (12).

Abstract: A method of mitigating errors in a distributed speech recognition process. The method comprises the steps of identifying a group comprising one or more vectors which have undergone a transmission error, and replacing one or more speech recognition parameters in the identified group of vectors. In one embodiment all the speech recognition parameters of each vector of the group are replaced by replacing the whole vectors, and each respective replaced whole vector is replaced by a copy of whichever of the preceding or following vector without error is closest in receipt order to the vector being replaced. In another embodiment determination of which speech recognition parameter or parameters are to be replaced is performed by predicting, from vectors received without error, a predicted value for each speech recognition parameter within said identified group of vectors, and replacing those speech recognition parameters within the identified group of vectors which are outside of a predetermined threshold relative to their respective predicted value. Also described is an apparatus for mitigating errors in a distributed speech recognition process.

Abstract: Shape memory polymer compositions, articles of manufacture thereof, and methods of preparation and use thereof are described. The shape memory polymer compositions can hold more than one shape in memory. Suitable compositions include at least one hard segment and at least one soft segment. The Ttrans of the hard segment is preferably between -30 and 270° C. At least one of the hard or soft segments can contain a crosslinkable group, and the segments can be linked by formation of an interpenetrating network or a semi-interpenetrating network, or by physical interactions of the blocks. Objects can be formed into a given shape at a temperature above the Ttrans of the hard segment, and cooled to a temperature below the Ttrans of the soft segment. If the object is subsequently formed into a second shape, the object can return to its original shape by heating the object above the Ttrans of the soft segment and below the Ttrans of the hard segment. The compositions can also include two soft segments which are linked via functional groups which are cleaved in response to application of light, electric field, magnetic field or ultrasound. The cleavage of these groups causes the object to return to its original shape.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for minimizing disruption during a frequency search excursion to a target frequency. The method may be preformed as part of inter-frequency hard-handoff between cells on different RF CDMA channels. The method minimizes search times by tuning a selected mobile station (102) to a target frequency and collecting chip samples which are then stored in a buffer (207). Pilot searches and pilot strength measurements are not performed while on the target frequency. The selected mobile station (102) is tuned back to the original frequency and simultaneously resumes reception of forward link and transmission of reverse link communications. The chip samples collected on the target frequency are processed to calculate pilot strength. In another embodiment, the method minimizes disruption of service on the current frequency during the frequency search by increasing the amount of power allocated to other symbols contained in a data frame impacted by the search excursion. This power increase is a function of search excursion time.
