Integrated retroreflective electronic display
TLDR
In this article, an integrated retroreflective data communication display for visual and electromagnetic communication is described, where an antenna network is integrated within the license plate for electromagnetic communication and may be connected to external electronic modules.Abstract:
An integrated retroreflective data communication display (2) for visual and electromagnetic communication is described. The display (2) may be configured as an integrated retroreflective electronic license plate, with printed visual information (4), similar to the information printed on traditional license plates, on retroreflective sheeting (6). An antenna network (8) is integrated within the license plate for electromagnetic communication and may be connected to external electronic modules. The display may also be configured as an integrated retroreflective electronic road sign (140), also providing visual and electromagnetic information in a unitary structure.read more

Microstrip antenna aperture-coupled to a microstripline
TL;DR: A new technique for feeding printed antennas is described in this paper, where a microstrip antenna on one substrate is coupled to a microstripline feed on another parallel substrate through an aperture in the ground plane which separates the two substrates.
Patent
Cellular retroreflective sheeting
TL;DR: In this article, a cellular retroreflective sheeting, which consists of a base layer of retro reflective elements and a transparent cover film supported in spaced relation away from the base layer by a network of narrow intersecting bonds, is given greater durability by use of bonds that are cured in situ after they have been thermoformed into sealing contact between the cover film and base layer.

Cube-corner retroreflective articles having wide angularity in multiple viewing planes
TL;DR: In this article, a set of cube-corner retroreflective articles having improved angularity along multiple viewing planes are provided. The articles are rotated 180° with respect to one another, the three lateral mutually perpendicular faces of the elements being defined at their bases by linear edges that lie in a common plane, and the optical axes being tilted toward one another.
