Title: Innovations by Jens Seidensticker in Projectile Trajectory Correction
Introduction
Jens Seidensticker is a notable inventor based in Radolfzell, Germany. He has made significant contributions to the field of projectile technology, particularly in methods for correcting the trajectory of projectiles. With a total of two patents to his name, Seidensticker's work showcases innovative approaches to enhancing the accuracy of guided munitions.
Latest Patents
Seidensticker's latest patents include a method for correcting the trajectory of a projectile, specifically for terminal phase-guided projectiles. This method involves guiding or rotating a laser beam around the center of the projectile's target course. The projectile detects any divergence from this course and performs a self-correction. A first laser beam is emitted over a designated region around the target course, initiating a timing process. Simultaneously, a rotating laser beam with a fixed frequency is positioned around this region. The projectile uses the second laser beam to recognize any divergence and initiates a correction based on the determined divergence, effectively implementing delays in the release of the projectile.
Another patent focuses on correcting the trajectory of terminally guided ammunition. This method aims to achieve a high probability of hits, especially during rapid firing scenarios. Each individual piece of ammunition is addressed separately, utilizing the beam rider guidance principle. This allows each ammunition to read its specific guidance beam and determine its roll attitude in space, ensuring the proper triggering of the correcting propulsion unit.
