Title: Robert C. Gellner and His Automotive Radar Invention.
Introduction
Robert C. Gellner is an inventor based in Santee, California. His patent work includes a radar system designed to track targets around an automotive vehicle.
Latest Patents
Gellner’s listed patent is “Monopulse Azimuth Radar System for Automotive Vehicle Tracking.” The invention uses a two-lobe monopulse antenna to receive signals reflected from a target at two locations. It derives sum and difference signals, then compares them to determine the target’s deviation from a reference azimuth.
The system uses a Gunn diode as its signal source and mixers to produce Doppler frequency signals. The comparison can be performed digitally with a digital signal processor or through an analog phase/quotient detector. By shifting the source frequency between two frequencies and applying corresponding shifts to the received signals, the system can also determine the target’s range. The supplied information lists 1 patent for Gellner.
Career Highlights
Gellner is associated with Vorad Safety Systems, Inc. His patent reflects work on applying radar sensing and signal processing to automotive vehicle tracking.
Collaborations
The supplied information identifies John W. Davis and Bryan D. Woll as Gellner’s coworkers. Their names are provided as professional associations, but no specific roles in the patent are stated.
Conclusion
Robert C. Gellner’s listed patent combines monopulse radar, Doppler signal processing, and frequency shifting to support target tracking and range determination around an automotive vehicle.
