Wideband, high efficiency optical modulator requires less than 10 watts drive power

Wideband optical modulation system operates with less than 10-watts drive power. It consists of an optical modulator and transistorized driver that combines small cross-section potassium dideuterium phosphate crystals with laser beam-condensing optics. Optical modulation systems may serve importantly in future space wideband communication systems.

High-efficiency step-up regulator

Single-ended step-up regulator-chopper power supply /employing conventional chopper circuitry/ combines the advantages of the chopper and switching regulator circuits. Schematic of the power supply incorporating the step-up regulator is shown.

High efficiency telemetry method

Analog and digital mechanizations contain new combinations of known circuits that generate coefficients of Fourier series terms in accordance with harmonic content of waveform to be transmitted. Technique represents information signal more accurately that previous methods and requires fewer information bits.

High efficiency collector for microwave tubes

Depressed collector has basic configuration of a dish with a central cone and protruding spike. This geometry velocity sorts and slows the electrons down to minimum velocity at collection, and prevents backstreaming of secondaries and reflected primaries into interaction region of the tube.

High efficiency ground data transmission

It is demonstrated that state-of-the-art communications technology can be implemented and reliably operated on a global basis to increase the transmission rates and efficiencies on circuits with bandwidths greater than the typical speech channel. Optimization is affected by optimum clock recovery procedures, multilevel pulse amplitude modulation, single sideband amplitude modulation, transversal filter equalizers, data scrambling, and active compensation for phase instability.

The calculation of efficient high precision orbits by optimum matching of the formulation and numerical integrator

The development of improved computer algorithms is considered for calculating earth satellite orbital trajectories by optimum selection of the analytical method that minimizes the number of perturbative acceleration computations for a given accuracy. A variation of parameter algorithm considering the equation of motion for a satellite proved superior for the geosynchronous orbit.

Investigation of highly efficient satellite solution methods

Methods for analyzing the stability of satellites are discussed. The subjects considered are: (1) time elements, (2) stabilization by external energy corrections, and (3) long term global solutions for the synchronous satellite. A set of canonical two-body elements referred to as Delaunay-similar elements is presented. In contrast to the classical Delaunay theory which has time as the independent variable, the D-S theory uses an independent variable which is a generalized true anomaly. The numerical integration of the canonical perturbation equations of these elements is developed.
