Title: Jan Weinbeer and His Contributions to Vehicle Protection
Introduction
Jan Weinbeer is an inventor associated with Bad Reichenhall, Germany. His patent work focuses on protective methods and systems for vehicles facing radar-guided missiles and other threats. He is associated with Rheinmetall Waffe Munition GmbH and has 2 patents listed in the information provided.
Latest Patents
One of Weinbeer’s patents, “Method for Protecting an Object from a Radar-Guided Missile,” describes using multiple flying drones equipped with active offboard reflectors. Positioned together, the drones act as separate radar-scattering centers. Their returned signals collectively create a radar pattern intended to simulate the protected object, potentially diverting the missile’s guidance.
His other listed patent, “Method and Device for Protecting a Vehicle Against a Threat,” concerns recognizing and preferably classifying a threat before implementing a countermeasure. The method calculates changes in the surrounding situation, including wind direction and speed, threat direction, and threat distance, as a vehicle changes course or travels. It displays calculated course and journey changes that may allow a countermeasure to be implemented successfully. The calculation also considers the threat type and relevant data about the vehicle.
Career Highlights
The two listed inventions address different aspects of vehicle protection: one uses coordinated airborne reflectors to influence radar guidance, while the other supports threat assessment and countermeasure planning. Both emphasize adapting protective measures to changing conditions.
Collaborations
The supplied information identifies Christian Lichtmannegger as Weinbeer’s coworker. It does not specify their particular collaboration or respective contributions to the listed patents.
Conclusion
Jan Weinbeer’s listed patent work centers on practical approaches to protecting vehicles, combining radar deception with situational threat assessment and countermeasure planning.
