High Energy Laser Beam Director System And Method
US Patent:
8203109, Jun 19, 2012
Filed:

Assignee:
Raytheon Company - Waltham MA
International Classification:
G01C 21/02
US Classification:
2502032, 2502019, 356512, 356513
Abstract:
A beam director subsystem and method for use in a weapons system. The beam director subsystem includes a source of electromagnetic radiation for generating a high energy laser (HEL) beam. The electromagnetic radiation is directed to a secondary mirror that reflects the electromagnetic radiation to a primary mirror for output of the HEL beam. The secondary mirror is generally curved and expands the electromagnetic radiation received from the source prior to outputting the HEL beam from the primary mirror. The subsystem further includes a track telescope coupled to the housing. The track telescope has a track detector configured to receive electromagnetic radiation originating from the HEL and electromagnetic radiation emitted from an illuminator and reflected from an airborne target.
Method And System Of Aligning A Track Beam And A High Energy Laser Beam
US Patent:
7952691, May 31, 2011
Filed:
May 8, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/437872
Inventors:
Daniel J. Mosier - Tucson AZ, US
David J. Park - Tucson AZ, US
David J. Park - Tucson AZ, US
Assignee:
Raytheon Company - Waltham MA
International Classification:
G01P 3/36, G01B 11/26
US Classification:
356 29, 35613904
Abstract:
A method and system for aligning a tracking beam and a high energy laser (HEL) beam includes a tracking beam and a HEL beam. A detector receives at least a portion of the tracking beam, wherein the tracking beam received at the detector has been reflected from the airborne target. The detector also receives a first portion and a second portion of the HEL beam prior to output through a housing. A processor processes the signals to determine a relationship between the tracking beam and the HEL beam; and generates a control signal to steer the HEL beam to the airborne target based upon the determined relationship.
Semi-Active Optical Tracking System
US Patent:

Assignee:
Raytheon Company - Waltham MA
International Classification:
G01P 3/36, G01B 11/26
US Classification:
356 29, 35613904
Abstract:
A system and method for tracking an airborne target including an illumination source (e. g. , a diode laser array) is used to enhance a target signature and a detector (e. g. , a passive high-speed camera) is used to detect to electromagnetic radiation (e. g. , infrared radiation) reflected off the target. The received electromagnetic radiation may be processed by a digital computer and passed through a spatial filter that implements a band limited edge detection operation in the frequency domain. The filter may remove low spatial frequencies that attenuate soft edged clutter such as clouds and smoke as well as filter out artifacts and attenuated medium to high spatial frequencies to inhibit speckle noise from the detector as well as speckle from the laser return off the target.
Discrete State-Space Filter And Method For Processing Asynchronously Sampled Data
US Patent:
7697646, Apr 13, 2010
Filed:
Sep 6, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/470438
Inventors:
Daniel J. Mosier - Tucson AZ, US
Assignee:
Raytheon Company - Waltham MA
International Classification:
H04B 1/10, H03K 9/00
US Classification:
375350, 375346, 375316
Abstract:
A discrete state-space filter directly applies a linear transfer function that describes the frequency-domain representation of an IIR filter or control plant to asynchronously sampled data. The discrete state-space technique maps a continuous time transfer function into the discrete state-space filter and stores the states of the filter in a sample-time independent fashion in a discrete state-space vector. The filter states are propagated with the asynchronous time measurements provided with the input data to generate the filtered output.
