摘要： An antenna array for use with a mobile subscriber unit in a wireless network communications system. The invention utilizes a multiplicity of resonant strips provided within the ground plane. These strips couple to an equal multiplicity of monopole array elements located on top of the ground plane. This approach increases antenna gain by more efficiently utilizing the available ground plane area. Additionally, since the active element is on top of the ground plane, the antenna array sensitivity is decreased because the direct coupling between the antenna and external environmental factors is minimized. The multiplicity of antenna elements are electrically isolated from the ground plane. Each antenna element has a bottom end located proximal to the ground plane, and is aligned along a respective antenna axis that is substantially perpendicular to the top side. Each resonant strip has a top end electrically connected to the ground plane and a bottom end spaced apart from a bottom side of the ground plane, and is aligned along the antenna axis of a corresponding antenna element. The multiplicity of antenna elements and the multiplicity of resonant strips are equally spaced about the perimeter of the ground plane, and the combination of each antenna element with a respective resonant strip provides a unbalanced dipole antenna element so that the multiplicity of dipole antenna elements form a composite beam which may be positionally directed along a horizon that is substantially parallel to the ground plane.

摘要： A foldable antenna includes a plurality of passive elements radially spaced apart from a center active element. The radial passive elements are joined to the active element to create a deformable union. In this way, the surrounding passive elements can be folded toward the midplane of the antenna array to create a relatively compact stored configuration.

摘要： An antenna array formed on a deformable dielectric material or substrate includes a center element and plurality of radial elements extending from a center hub. In the operative mode, the radial elements are folded upwardly into an approximately vertical position, with the center element at the center of the hub and the radial elements circumferentially surrounding the center element. In one embodiment the center element serves an active element of the antenna array and the radial elements are controllable in a directive or reflective state to effect a directive beam pattern from the antenna array. When not in use, the antenna elements are deformed into a plane and can therefore be integrated into a housing for compact storage. In a phased array embodiment, the center element is absent and the plurality of radial elements, are controllable to steer the antenna beam.

摘要： Work is produced from heat in a continuous cycle. A flow of first working fluid is provided to a high pressure boiler to produce a flow of first working fluid vapor. A second working fluid in vaporous form is compressed, after which a third working fluid is formed by mixing the first working fluid vapor and the second working fluid. Thermal energy is transferred directly between the first and second working fluids in the mixing chamber exclusive of any intervening structure. A refrigeration loop containing a fourth working fluid extracts thermal energy from a low grade thermal energy source and moves the thermal energy to the first working fluid and/or the second working fluid.
