Abstract: In an apparatus for time-compression video recording and time-expansion reproduction, first and second memory address counters are initialized in response to there being a simultaneous presence of vertical and horizontal sync pulses. Until the next vertical blanking period the counters are continuously incremented at different rates during mutually exclusive times for successively writing and reading the luminance component of a composite color television signal. A third memory address counter operable in recyclically variable count modes is provided for writing and reading the color-difference components at sequentially varying rates during a count cycle and generating an output pulse at the end of the count cycle. A phase comparator detects the phase difference between the horizontal sync pulse and the output pulse of the third address counter. A variable frequency oscillator is responsive to the phase difference for incrementing the third address counter at a rate corresponding to the phase difference.

Abstract: A dual band, phased array antenna especially adaptable for tactical radar capable of performing search, track and identification in a hostile jamming environment. The dual band array antenna is essentially two antennas sharing a common antenna aperture. The two antennas possess separate feed system and beam steering control. Thus, the beams for each frequency band can be steered independently and simultaneously. This design utilizes an ultra-wide band radiating element (300) which can operate over approximately an octave bandwidth encompassing two adjacent microwave bands. In particular, the dual band signals can be received efficiently by the radiating element. A dual band coaxial-to-waveguide transition (301) can be used to carry the signals to a diplexer (302). The dual band signals are separated at the diplexer (302) and can be processed in separate feed networks (104, 105). The advantages of this dual band phased array technique include not only good impedance characteristics but also the absence of grating lobe formation and cross coupling problems.

Abstract: An anti-fog liquid coating composition comprises: a polymer which is polyvinylpyrrolidone, polydimethylacrylamide or a polyvinylpyrrolidone copolymer with a polymerizable alpha olefin free of functional groups reactive with isocyanates; a polyisocyanate prepolymer; a surfactant which will chemically bond to a reaction product of the polymer and prepolymer, and an organic solvent to form a solution of the foregoing ingredients. The invention includes a substrate having an anti-fog transparent coating comprising the reaction product of polyvinylpyrrolidione, a polyvinylpyrrolidone copolymer with a polymerizable alpha olefin free of functional groups reactive with isocyanates or polydimethylacrylamide with a polyisocyanate prepolymer, said reaction product being chemically bound to a surfactant. On curing, the surfactant is chemically combined with the hydrophilic polymer/isocyanate prepolymer composition and is not subject to extraction in any significant amount while still conferring improved fog resistance to the coated substrate.

Abstract: A decoder is provided for decoding variable word length (VWL) encoded serial data in which non-zero word comprises a start bit and an end bit of one state and a number of intervening bits of a different state, the number of such bits representing the magnitude of a word. The decoder comprises a binary counter 36 and means 32 responsive to a start bit of an input word for clearing the counter; responsive to any intervening bits present to enable the counter to count such intervening bits; and responsive to an end bit of said variable word to output the contents of the counter as a parallel binary word. Where the number of intervening bits is one less than the actual magnitude the decoder may include means 40 for adding one to the counter output. The decoder 42 may also detect an additional bit in the input word, representing, for example, its polarity, and provide a corresponding bit in the fixed-length output word.

Abstract: A heavy support weapon, for example, of 30 mm caliber, designed for firing from conventional machine gun mounts without undue recoil loads transferred to the gun mount. The weapon is designed for first round accuracy whether in the automatic open bolt or semi-automatic closed bolt mode. The weapon 10 includes a barrel 13 joined to a barrel yoke 21 in a receiver 14 aft of a front housing assembly 15. The recoil system includes a main recoil spring 30, a secondary spring 23, a buffer group including rods 60, springs 61 and plate 63. A slide bolt assembly 40 includes a slide 41, a bolt 42, a face 43, bolt face levers 44 and actuating pins 45, all within the receiver 14. The bolt face 43 is driven vertically by the bolt face levers 44 to receive a new round, load it and remove and discharge a spent casing. The slide bolt assembly 40 travels forward and aft during the firing cycle. On rearward travel it is accelerated rearward by accelerator 70 until reaching the buffer group and transfers its kinetic energy to the buffer group which in turn transfers that energy to the barrel 13 and the recoil spring 30 where it is absorbed without transferring the impact loading to the weapon mount.
