Patent
Angle-of-arrival measurement via spectral estimation of radar time-of-arrival periodicities
TL;DR: In this article, a spectral estimation technique was used to estimate the angle-of-arrival (AOA) of radar pulses with respect to a ground or airborne based platform.
Patent
Frequency measurement receiver with bandwidth improvement through synchronized phase shifted sampling
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a phase shifted sampling approach to calculate the phase difference between the original and delayed signals, and an approximation to the true frequency for each peak observed in the amplitude spectrum is estimated.

TL;DR: In this paper, an onboard system includes one or more radar modules, detects aerial vehicles within a threat range of the aerial platform, and determines if any of the plurality of aerial vehicles are an aerial threat.
Patent
Spectral estimation of radar time-of-arrival periodicities
TL;DR: In this paper, a method to extract the periodic properties (or Pulse Repetition Intervals (PRIs)) of radar signals whose time-of-arrival at an airborne platform have been time tagged by an Electronic Warfare (EW) receiver is presented.
Patent
Methods and appratuses for engagement management of arial threats
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an approach for managing engagement with aerial threats using multiple engagement management systems and coordinated control of multiple intercept vehicles, including radar modules and control flight paths and detonation capabilities of intercept vehicles.
