Comformal Phased Array Antenna And Method For Repair

US Patent:
6768471, Jul 27, 2004
Filed:
Jul 25, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/205411
Inventors:
Richard N. Bostwick - Snoqualmie WA
Gary E. Miller - Auburn WA
David N. Rasmussen - Edmonds WA
Assignee:
The Boeing Company - Seattle WA
International Classification:
H01Q 1300
US Classification:
343853, 343776, 343778
Abstract:
A conformal phased array antenna and associated method of repairing the antenna are provided. The antenna has individual subassemblies or line replaceable units such that the antenna can be repaired without completely removing the entire antenna. The antenna generally includes a planar antenna subassembly including an array of RF modules disposed in a reference plane. The antenna also typically has a contoured waveguide subassembly including a contoured aperture honeycomb structure. The contoured aperture honeycomb structure defines a number of passages that are in communication with respective RF modules. The exterior surface of the contoured aperture honeycomb structure that faces away from the planar antenna subassembly is contoured such that at least portions of this surface are at an oblique angle with respect to the reference plane. This contoured surface may advantageously be shaped to match the contour of the surface of the structure to which the antenna is mounted.

Method Of Testing Dielectric Materials

US Patent:
4581574, Apr 8, 1986
Filed:
Feb 21, 1984
Appl. No.:
6/581888
Inventors:
Sperry H. Goodman - Kent WA
Gary E. Miller - Auburn WA
James P. Grady - Seattle WA
Assignee:
The Boeing Company - Seattle WA
International Classification:
G01R 2704
US Classification:
324 58A
Abstract:
A method for determining the phase delay of microwave energy passing through a dielectric material, and for determining values related to the dielectric constant for microwave circuit boards. Phase delay is determined by positioning a pair of transducers adjacent different surfaces of the dielectric material, and injecting microwave energy at a certain frequency along a path through the material from the first transducer to the second transducer. The frequency of microwave radiation is that frequency at which S. sub. 11 and S. sub. 22 for the transducers are both less than a selected amount. Where the dielectric material is a conductively surfaced microwave circuit board, the path through the material is from one edge of the board to another edge through the plane of the board. Microwave circuit boards may be tested by determining values related to the dielectric constant for a plurality of such paths through the board, the paths consisting of a first group of mutually parallel paths and a second group of mutually parallel paths oriented to intersect the paths of the first group. For each path, measurements are made at the frequency or frequencies determined as described above.

Submarine Qualified Antenna Aperture

US Patent:
7580003, Aug 25, 2009
Filed:
Nov 7, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/557227
Inventors:
Mark R. Davis - Bellevue WA, US
Richard N. Bostwick - North Bend WA, US
David N. Rasmussen - Renton WA, US
Gary E. Miller - Auburn WA, US
Assignee:
The Boeing Company - Chicago IL
International Classification:
H01Q 13/00
US Classification:
343872, 343719
Abstract:
An antenna aperture for mounting on the outside mast structure of a submarine is disclosed. The antenna aperture is designed to withstand hydrostatic pressure cycles as would be experienced by a submarine. The antenna is constructed of a highly corrosion resistant housing upon which a wide angle impedance (WAIM) cover designed to meet antenna RF requirements is integrated.

Handheld Coordinate Reference System

US Patent:
7287701, Oct 30, 2007
Filed:
Feb 17, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/059779
Inventors:
Gary E. Miller - Auburn WA, US
William O. Price - Sammamish WA, US
Kirk D. Skaggs - Federal Way WA, US
Assignee:
The Boeing Company - Chicago IL
International Classification:
G06K 7/10
US Classification:
23547201, 382284
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for determining a spatial position of interest in an assembly is disclosed. In one embodiment, the method comprises the steps of determining a reference position of reference unit; moving the reference unit from the reference position to the first spatial position; inertially measuring a displacement of the reference unit while the reference unit is unilluminated by an illuminator; and determining the first position from the reference position, illuminator energy reflected from the reference unit, and the inertially measured displacement of the reference unit.

High Power, Low Profile, Broadband Antenna

US Patent:
8274439, Sep 25, 2012
Filed:
Sep 29, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/569470
Inventors:
Gary E. Miller - Auburn WA, US
William O. Price - Kent WA, US
Assignee:
The Boeing Company - Chicago IL
International Classification:
H01Q 1/02
US Classification:
343705
Abstract:
An antenna may include an enclosure formed by a front wall and a back wall opposite to the front wall, and a front face and a back face opposite to the front face. Both the front face and the back face extend between the front wall and the back wall to form a cavity within the enclosure. The enclosure further includes a slot formed in the front face to form a cavity backed slot. A radio frequency (RF) connector is mounted in the front wall. A shaped feed line is mounted within the cavity and is electrically connected to the RF connector to transmit and receive RF energy. The shaped feed line extends across the slot to couple the RF energy between the slot and the shaped feed line. The shaped feed line has a predetermined structure to substantially reduce an electric field strength to improve power handing of the antenna.
