    摘要: A system for detection and orbit determination of Earth orbiting objects includes a first plurality of sensors including at least one first antenna. The at least one first antenna is configured to point in a stare mode to broadcast a first detection signal at an angular region centered on an equatorial plane to maximize detection of orbiting objects regardless of altitude, grade, or inclination. The first antenna may be configured to stare at a low inclination angle, and may be configured to stare at one of due east and due west along the equator.

    摘要: A Time Transfer Time Reverse Mirror (TT TRM) method and system includes a radio transceiver for transmitting a series of short pulses repeatedly at a period T and for receiving from a remote node a return signal that is a retransmission of the original signal at the same period T: a clock circuit for inputting a clock signal to the transceiver: and a computer for (i) computing and generating an imaginary time-reversed signal version of the original signal, (ii) comparing the return signal with the imaginary version. (iii) computing a delay between the return signal and the imaginary version that is substantially equal to twice the time difference between the two nodes, and (iv) applying the computed delay to a clock input calibration for a desired signal. The system includes time transfer using the ionospheric reflection (refraction), producing precise synchronization among remote nodes beyond the line-of-sight and thus without necessitating GPS or communication satellites.

    摘要: To reduce emission power, the sounding of a channel comprises a space-of-change transformation of M columns with N initial samples having equal time ranks in the last N impulse responses of a sounding signal received via the channel to produce a transformed matrix, an association with the transformed matrix a matrix of binary elements depending on respective moduli of the samples in the transformed matrix in comparison with a threshold, a spatial filtering of the matrix of binary elements to produce a filtered matrix in which each binary element represents the presence or the absence of the sounding signal in the associated initial sample, and a calculation of an impulse response on the basis only of transformed samples associated with binary elements from the filtered matrix having states representative of the presence of the sounding signal.
