Collapsible corrugated horn antenna

A horn antenna that is readily collapsible while not in use is described. A number of different sized annular metal rings are arranged in a sequence such that each ring is larger than the one that precedes it in the sequence. A number of thin flexible electrically conductive members attach successive metal rings together physically and connect them together electrically. Each flexible conductive member is attached to make electrical contact between the outside surface of a metal ring and the inside surface of an adjacent metal ring in the sequence.

A unique concept for automatically controlling the braking action of wheeled vehicles during minimum distance stops

Test results of a unique automatic brake control system are outlined and a comparison is made of its mode of operation to that of an existing skid control system. The purpose of the test system is to provide automatic control of braking action such that hydraulic brake pressure is maintained at a near constant, optimum value during minimum distance stops.
