    摘要: An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) navigation system includes a portable, ground-based landing pad comprising having a first antenna configured to transmit a data packet; a UAV comprising a second antenna configured to receive the data packet; and second processing circuitry configured to determine a signal strength between the first antenna and the second antenna; determine, based on the signal strength, an orientation of the vehicle relative to the landing pad; and determine, based on a time of flight of the data packet, a distance between the vehicle and the landing pad.

    摘要: A method of calibrating a radar-based vibration sensor that includes a radar head coupled to a vibration device includes disposing the vibration sensor at a fixed distance from a target, and transmitting radio frequency (RF) signals toward, and receiving RF signals reflected by, the target. An excitation voltage is supplied, at a plurality of different excitation frequencies, to the vibration device to cause the vibration sensor to vibrate. Vibration sensor acceleration is determined at each of the different excitation frequencies. A calibration curve is generated based on the determined vibration sensor acceleration at each of the different excitation frequencies, and on the reflected RF signals at each of the different excitation frequencies.

    摘要: In some examples, a system includes at least three receivers configured to receive a surveillance packet from another vehicle at respective arrival times. The system includes a first receiver configured to receive a surveillance packet from the other vehicle at a first time. The system also includes a second receiver configured to receive the surveillance packet from the other vehicle at a second time. The system further include a third receiver configured to receive the surveillance packet from the other vehicle at a third time. In addition, the system includes processing circuitry configured to determine a location of the ownship vehicle based on the received surveillance packet and the respective arrival times.

    摘要: A fall detection/fall indicator device (20) that automatically senses when a user (14) of fall protection equipment, such as a fall harness (10), has experienced an arrested fall, the fall harness (10) having an electrical circuit (45) that is a closed circuit (46) in a first state and an open circuit (48) in a second state after an arrested fall, and an alert device (62) that is automatically responsive to the open circuit (48) to emit an alert/alarm to other personnel that an arrested fall has been experienced.
