An ad-hoc networking method is proposed for use over existing power lines in large commercial buildings. The network is minimally sensitive to lossy elements such as distribution transformers and tripped or OFF circuit breakers and hardware may be made interoperable with existing power line communication systems. Adaption performance of the network is programmable so that various sensor requirem ...

Cellular automata are computer-theoretical models originally developed by computing pioneer John von Neumann in 1950s to study self-reproduction computing machines. Cellular automata are massively parallel, regularly connected and allow only local data exchanges between cells. Cellular automata computation models map perfectly to modern many-core computing hardware. Opportunities have arrived to ...

There is a DoD need for an interface of nonlinear micromagnetic computation engines with standard RF circuit design tools. Such an interface will allow RF design engineers to easily and intuitively simulate circuits containing certain nonlinear micromagnetic self-adaptive components such as frequency selective limiters (FSL) and signal-to-noise enhancers (SNE) at the fundamental materials level, a ...

Softronics proposes a telemetry collection sonobuoy system based on several of its prior products: DSP sonobuoy radios, a radio relay sonobuoy (recent SBIR), and a miniature digital radio recorder that captures a whole radio band to memory. Through our existing partnership with the worlds largest sonobuoy manufacturer, we will design the TM system to directly fit the production Type A sonobuoy ma ...
