    Abstract: Techniques are provided for a dynamically reconfigurable two times (2×) oversampled channelizer. A channelizer implementing the techniques according to an embodiment includes a polyphase filter, a two phase reorder circuit, a fast Fourier transform (FFT) circuit, and a two phase merge circuit. The polyphase filter is configured to filter time domain input data to control spectral shaping of frequency bins of the channelizer output. The two phase reorder circuit is configured to split a 2× oversampled data stream into two parallel, critically sampled data streams. The FFT circuit is configured to transform each stream into the frequency domain. The two phase merge circuit is configured to merge the two streams of frequency domain data into a single stream of 2× oversampled frequency domain data for distribution onto frames of frequency bins. Reconfigurable parameters for the channelizer include filter coefficients, number of filter folds, and number of frequency bins.

    Abstract: Techniques are provided for a multi-frequency sampling system. A system implementing the techniques according to an embodiment includes a first bandpass filter to filter a radio frequency (RF) signal to generate a first filtered signal in a first frequency band, and a second bandpass filter to filter the RF signal to generate a second filtered signal in a second frequency band. The system also includes a first analog to digital converter (ADC) operating at a first sampling frequency to convert the first filtered signal to a first digital signal and a second ADC operating at a second sampling frequency to convert the second filtered signal to a second digital signal. The first frequency band is selected to avoid a first Nyquist boundary zone associated with the first sampling frequency and the second frequency band is selected to avoid a second Nyquist boundary zone associated with the second sampling frequency.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a system and method for determining a range to an object in a fluid. The system includes a polarized light source directed to the object in the fluid, a first imaging sensor, a second imaging sensor, and at least one processor. The at least one processor characterizes a depolarization rate of the fluid and determines the range to the object. The method includes generating polarized light via a polarized light source, polarizing an imager relative to the polarized light, transmitting the polarized light from the polarized light source into the fluid, receiving reflected light from the object, characterizing a depolarization rate of the fluid, based, at least in part, on the reflected light, and determining the range to the object, based, at least in part, on the depolarization rate of the fluid.

    Abstract: Nosecone and tailfin designs for aerodynamic systems are disclosed. The designs increase the usable volume within the fuselage of the aerodynamic system while still maintaining the same length for the aerodynamic system. In an example, the nosecone is truncated and includes a blunted tip compared to standard nosecone designs, which allows for more useable space along the length of the aerodynamic system. A tailfin structure is fabricated as a separate piece (separate from the fuselage of the aerodynamic system) and slips over a portion of one end of the fuselage, thus allowing useable volume within the fuselage beneath the tailfin structure. The tailfin structure also includes a hollow cavity for holding componentry (e.g., an RF transmitter, receiver, or transceiver device) with wires that feed through the tailfin structure and into the fuselage of the aerodynamic system.
