Wireless Technology leaps the last mile
Computer, 2006Co-Authors: L D PaulsonAbstract:A US company has released a fast wireless Technology that can be used to send data over the last mile - the final leg between communications service providers' facilities and their customers. GigaBeam's millimeter-Wave Technology could address the challenges found in accelerating last-mile communications. GigaBeam's millimeter-Wave Technology could enable a building on an optical wide area network to wirelessly provide high-speed communications to other buildings that don't have access to such services because they don't have their own optical fiber connections. All buildings would need roof-mounted millimeter-Wave transceivers and antennas that are in direct line-of-sight with one another.

Millimeter-Wave Technology advances since 1985 and future trends
IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques, 1991Co-Authors: H.h. MeinelAbstract:The author focuses on finline or E-plane Technology. Several examples, including AVES, a 61.5-GHz radar sensor for traffic data acquisition, are included. Monolithic integrated 60- and 94-GHz receiver circuits composed of a mixer and IF amplifier in compatible FET Technology on GaAs are presented to show the state of the art in this area. A promising approach to the use of silicon Technology for monolithic millimeter-Wave integrated circuits, called SIMMWIC, is described as well. As millimeter-Wave Technology has matured, increased interest has been generated for very specific applications: (1) commercial automotive applications such as intelligent cruise control and enhanced vision have attracted great interest, calling for a low-cost design approach; and (2) an almost classical application of millimeter-Wave techniques is the field of radar seekers, e.g. for intelligent ammunitions, calling for high performance under extreme environmental conditions. Two examples fulfilling these requirements are described.

Ultrasonic Guided Wave Technology for Non-invasive Assessment of Corrosion-induced Damage in Piping for Pollution Prevention in DOD Fuel Storage Facilities. Cost and Performance Report. Version 2
2011Co-Authors: Carrie E Davis, Terri M ReginAbstract:Abstract : Corrosion-induced defects in long and inaccessible pipelines are a concern for the DOD because of the potential for leaks and oil spills on land and underwater caused by metal corrosion. Current practices of inspection techniques allow seriously deficient items to be repaired or removed from service, sometimes at inconvenient times and high cost as a result of emergencies. However, none of these techniques provides sufficient information to predict the growth rate of small defects. This report summarizes the work performed in a two-phase ESTCP project to demonstrate the capabilities of commercially available ultrasonic guided Wave Technology for the detection, sizing, and growth monitoring of corrosion-induced defects in fuel piping.

Ultrasonic Guided Wave Technology for Non-Invasive Assessment of Corrosion-Induced Damage in Piping for Pollution Prevention in DOD Fuel Storage Facilities
2011Co-Authors: Carrie E Davis, Terri M ReginAbstract:Abstract : This report summarizes the work performed in a two-phase ESTCP project to demonstrate the capabilities of commercially available ultrasonic guided Wave Technology for the detection, sizing, and growth monitoring of corrosion-induced defects in fuel piping. Corrosion-induced defects in long and inaccessible pipelines are a concern for the DOD because of the potential for leaks and oil spills on land and underwater. In Phase I, a pipeline was established in the facilities at the NSWCCD, incorporating welds, elbows, and hidden corrosion-induced defects to serve as a test bed for ultrasonic guided Wave Technology. In Phase II the Technology was used to monitor a steel pipeline at the Naval Station, Norfolk, VA. using above and below ground transducers for a period of 20 months. Several locations suspected of having corrosion have not yet produced consistently increasing ultrasonic signals to warrant excavation and physical examination, an indirect indication of the efficacy of the cathodic protection system for the pipeline. It is recommended that monitoring be continued to further demonstrate this Technology for future DOD and commercial use.

Exploiting High Millimeter Wave Bands for Military Communications, Applications, and Design
IEEE Access, 2019Co-Authors: James F. Harvey, Michael B. Steer, Theodore S. RappaportAbstract:Military communications networks can leverage much of the millimeter-Wave (mm-Wave) Technology being investigated and developed for 5G cellular but require special attention to the unique military requirements. This paper highlights the special communications' requirements of specific military local area networks and discusses how higher band mm-Wave Technology can contribute to high data rates and simultaneously achieve covertness. Adaptive tuning for varying atmospheric absorption meets the military requirements for quickly adjusting covert communication zones to accommodate potentially rapid movements of network nodes, dynamic output power constraints, and changing environmental conditions.
