A sensor system for a structure comprises a sensor node in force transmitting contact with an impact receiving surface of a structure envelope of the structure. The sensor node is configured to generate first sensor data associated with the structure envelope of the structure and perform a first set of operations to filter out unwanted data from the first sensor data to form a first filtered dataset. The sensor system includes a sensor hub in communication with the sensor node. The sensor hub is configured to receive the first filtered dataset from the sensor node and perform a second set of operations on the first filtered dataset to identify an event experienced by the structure envelope that caused the sensor node to produce the first sensor data.

Methods, devices, and systems for impact detection and reporting for structure envelopes

An antenna, multi-band antenna system, and antenna apparatus for radio frequency communications are disclosed. The antenna includes a first antenna core, a multi-band antenna array located on the first antenna core, a second antenna core laminated to the first antenna core, an antenna ground plane located on the second core, and a plurality of feed networks interspersed on the first antenna core and the second antenna core. The first antenna core and the second antenna core form dielectric columns between the multi-band antenna array and the antenna ground plane. The antenna may also include a low noise block feed connection located on the first antenna core.

Creating low cost multi-band and multi-feed passive array feed antennas and low-noise block feeds

A phase locked loop and power amplifier are integrated on a single chip. To eliminate cross-talk between the components, a frequency translation block is introduced to change the output frequency of the PLL. To isolate the components from unwanted feedback, a high isolation buffer is introduced between the components. To further isolate the components, the voltage supply domains for each component are physically separated. Each separate voltage supply domain can include a separate high isolation ring, separate voltage regulator, and separate bandgap reference.

Method and apparatus for integrating power amplifiers with phase locked loop in a single chip transceiver

An integrated transceiver for wireless applications has both a frequency determining means and a power amplifier. A transmission filter suppresses unwanted spurious outputs in an integrated circuit before a power amplifier stage amplifies and transmits the desired signal. A differential to single ended converter is able to be implemented to further enhance efficiency.
