A terrestrial acoustic sensor array for detecting and preventing airspace collision with an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) includes a plurality of ground-based acoustic sensor installations, each of the acoustic sensor installations including a sub-array of microphones. The terrestrial acoustic sensor array may further include a processor for detecting an aircraft based on sensor data collected from the microphones of at least one of the plurality of acoustic sensor installations and a network link for transmitting a signal based on the detection of the aircraft to a control system of the UAV.

A steerable, high-power microwave antenna includes: a forward-traveling, leaky-wave feed antenna; a trans-reflecting conical-sectional reflector disposed spaced-apart and above said leaky-wave feed antenna and having a conical surface facing said leaky-wave feed antenna and formed of a plurality of electrical conductors held in parallel order in a grill; and a twist-reflector pivotally mounted opposite and spaced-apart from said conical surface of said trans-reflecting conical-sectional reflector. The twist-reflector is adapted to receive microwave energy reflected to it from said conical surface of said trans-reflecting conical-sectional reflector and to rotate the polarization of said microwave energy and reflect said microwave energy back to said trans-reflecting conical-sectional reflector for passing through said trans-reflecting conical-sectional reflector and forming a narrow, pencil-like beam of high energy radiation in polarized form extending outward from said conical surface of said trans-reflecting conical-sectional reflector.

A novel metallized film capacitor is contemplated. The capacitor includes a first film and a second film. Each of the first film and second film have a metallized layer added. Each of the metallized layers includes alternating metallized sections and margin sections. The outermost sections on one film are metallized sections, while the outermost sections on the other film are margin sections. This pattern and proper sizing of the sections creates overlap regions where a metallized section from one film overlaps a metallized section from the other film. These overlap regions create sub-capacitors that give the capacitor low inductance while allowing for high current and high voltage.

A device includes a semiconductor substrate having a plurality of doped layers forming first and second junctions. The semiconductor substrate includes a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. The device includes a plurality of waveguides defined by a plurality of glass inlaid channels defined within the first surface. Each of the plurality of glass inlaid channels extends through the second junction. The device includes a pattern of reflective elements associated with sidewalls of the plurality of glass inlaid channels to reflect light into the plurality of waveguides. A first electrically-conductive layer is disposed on the first surface and covers the plurality of glass inlaid channels.

A method of detecting and preventing airspace collision with an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) includes dividing an airspace into a plurality of sectors, positioning a plurality of sensor installations to detect presence of an aircraft at respective boundaries between the sectors, detecting presence of the aircraft at a first of the boundaries based on sensor data collected from a first one of the sensor installations that is positioned to detect presence of the aircraft at the first boundary, and transmitting a signal based on the detection of the presence of the aircraft at the first boundary to a control system of the UAV.
