Abstract: A flash memory process and device for encrypting and storing data in a non-volatile flash memory associated with a host system. The device includes a flash memory, an encryption engine, a key store, a SRAM to interface with the host system, and associated control circuitry. When powered on, the device first determines if a valid encryption key is held in the key store. If a valid key is held in the store, a program flag is set when encrypted data in the flash memory is ready to be decrypted by the engine and stored in the SRAM for use by the host system, or when data originating from the host system and stored in the SRAM is ready to be encrypted by the engine and programmed into the flash memory. The device can be embedded in any host system wherein data must be encrypted while at rest in a memory.

Abstract: A method for reducing self-interference in a wireless network, such as a Link 16 network, while maintaining simultaneous multiple access takes advantage of the physical proximity of nodes in a localized subnetwork, such as a fighter-to-fighter subnetwork in a flight wing, by actively reducing the transmit powers used for subnet messages between the nodes. Calibration messages such as Precise Participant Location and Identification (PPLI) messages are exchanged between all of the nodes of the localized subnetwork, from which each node determines the identities, transmit powers, noise levels, and SNRs of all of the other nodes. The node then determines a link margin for other nodes, and sets its transmit power to a “safe” level for the subnetwork according to the lowest link margin.

Abstract: A system and method for covert targeting and communication that uses Laser Range Finder (LRF) and Digital Light Processing (DLP) technology. By modulating the pulses of the laser in a LRF according to a predetermined library and by using a “divide-by-two” shutter pattern scheme applied to the DLP mirror's field of view, a covert communication and targeting system can be utilized in the field as part of a lightweight, low cost system.

Abstract: A multifunctional rangefinder capable of functioning as a rangefinder and at least one additional function. The multifunctional rangefinder comprises a laser transmitter for transmitting a laser pulse and an object lens, located at an inlet of the multifunctional rangefinder, for capturing light reflected by a target and focusing the reflected light at a first digital micro-mirror device. The first digital micro-mirror device has a plurality of micro-mirrors, and each of the plurality of micro-mirrors has an “on” position and an “off” position. A single detector element receives light reflected by the plurality of micro-mirrors of the first digital micro-mirror device. An optical condenser arrangement is located between the digital micro-mirror device and the detector element. An analog/digital converter is coupled to the single detector element for processing signals detected by the single detector element. A grating, a second digital micro-mirror device, first and second collimating lens are also provided.

Abstract: A system and method are presented for generating shearograms from raw specklegram images which may, for example, be collected from airborne or other mobile shearography equipment. The system and method is used to detect and characterize buried mines, improvised explosive devices (IEDs), and underground tunnels, bunkers, and other structures. Amongst other purposes, the system and method may also be used for rapid scanning of ship hulls and aircraft for hidden structural defects, rapid pipeline inspection, and non-contact acoustic sensing for in-water and underground sources.

Abstract: A fiber laser having a thermal controller operatively connected to one or more fiber Bragg gratings is provided. The thermal controller does not impart much or imparts very little mechanical stress or strain to the optical fiber in which the FBGs reside because such forces can alter the FBG performance. Rather, the thermal controller utilizes a thermally conductive semi-solid or non-Newtonian fluid to submerge/suspend a portion of the optical fiber in which FBG resides. Temperature control logic controls whether a thermoelectric heater and cooler should be directed to increase or decrease its temperature. The thermoelectric heater and cooler imparts or removes thermal energy from the FBG to efficiently control its performance without the application of mechanical stress. The fiber laser having a thermal controller generally is able to increase laser output power greater than two times the amount of output power of a similarly fabricated fiber laser free of the thermal controller(s).

Abstract: The system and method for protecting multiple networked enclaves each having one or more insecure machines. The system may include an attack detector as part of a secure node (e.g., SAFE node) proxy. The system may include an attack detector external to the proxy. The proxy may support multiple detectors and its actions may include isolating an insecure machine, cleansing an insecure machine, or tattling on (impugning the reputation of) an insecure machine.

Abstract: What is provided is recording capability for each of the modules utilized by the first responders and other personnel within the area of the incident, with the stored information at each of the first responders' modules being read out through the ad hoc network, where it can be uploaded to storage. The stored information can be displayed at an incident commander work station in real time to give the incident commander a realistic view of the timeline and the severity of the incident, as well as the response. The use of the ad hoc network permits offloading stored information from each of the first responders' modules so as to free up storage within the modules. By providing storage at every node of the ad hoc network, one has access to a timeline of the actions at the incident as well as redundancy, which enhances the memories and observational skills of the first responders. Incident reporting is made complete due to the fact of all recordings being made available at one node on the temporary ad hoc network from which information reports and analysis can proceed, as well as subsequent training.
