| Data communication apparatus | 20100303234 | 20101202 |
| A data communication apparatus wherein the stealthiness has been enhanced by significantly increasing the time required for a wiretapper to decrypt an encrypted text. The data communication apparatus is constituted by connecting a data transmitting apparatus and a data receiving apparatus via a transmission path. The data transmitting apparatus receives a first predetermined initial value (key information) and information data, generates a multi-valued signal the level of which varies substantially like a random number, and converts the multi-valued signal to a modulated signal of a predetermined modulation format for transmission. The data receiving apparatus demodulates the modulated signal to output the multi-valued signal, and then reproduces the information data from the multi-valued signal and a second predetermined initial value (key information) that is received.

| Underwater hunting gun of the crossbow type with effortless string-drawing device and low recoil | 20100288254 | 20101118 |
| An underwater hunting gun of the crossbow type uses push-rods for tensioning elastic links, the push-rods being placed laterally on a moving headpiece activated by a lever-operated arming system. The elastic links run freely around the push-rods such that front ends of the elastic links are permanently and preferably fixed to the base and rear ends are fixed under no tension in a slot of a bolt or arrow. The sliding of the moving headpiece in the forward bolt-support segment intensifies the drawing of the elastic links from the back forwards over and under the push-rods, thus optimizing, at the time of firing, the range of the bolt without recoil of the crossbow through the fact that the bolt is expelled in the manner of a... |

The composite absorbs radar in a frequency range from about 0.10 Megahertz to about 60 Gigahertz. The CNT-infused fiber material forms a first layer that reduces radar reflectance and a second layer that dissipates the energy of the radar. A method of manufacturing this composite includes disposing a CNT-infused fiber material in a portion of a matrix material with a controlled orientation of the CNT-infused fiber material within the matrix material, and curing the matrix material. The composite can be formed into a panel which is adaptable as a structural component of a transport vessel or missile for use in stealth applications.

| Wireless communication method and system for transmission authentication at the physical layer | 20100246825 | 20100930 |
| The subject authentication scheme encompasses a large family of authentication systems which may be built over existing transmission systems. By superimposing a carefully designed secret modulation on the waveforms, authentication is added to the signal without requiring additional bandwidth. The authentication information (tag signal) is sent concurrently with data (message signal). The authentication is designed to be stealthy to the uninformed user, robust to interference, and secure for identity verification. The tradeoffs between these three goals are identified and analyzed. The use of the authentication for channel estimation is also considered, and improved bit errors are demonstrated for time-varying channels. With a long enough authentication code word an authentication system is achieved with very slight data degradation. Additionally, by treating the authentication tag as a sequence... |

| System and method for secure communication of collected amphibious data | 20090257475 | 20091015 |
| system and method for secure communication of collected amphibious data is disclosed, which uses direct-sequence, spread spectrum, ultra wideband (DS-SS UWB) communications to enhance the security of the collected amphibious data during transmission over a wireless communication link. The UWB technique used transmits the collected data using very short pulses with low duty cycles. Thus, the power of the transmitted signals can be distributed evenly over a large bandwidth, and buried within the environmental noise (below the noise floor) to produce “stealth” transmissions. The transmitted signals can also be encrypted, which provides a wireless data communication transmission that is immune from jamming and masked from eavesdropping attempts. As one example, a system for secure communication of collected amphibious data is disclosed, which includes a DS-SS UWB... |

| Adjustable trigger pressure archery release (stealth) | 20060162707 | 20060727 |
| An adjustable trigger pressure archery release including a bayonet mounted trigger utilizing an actuator ramp to reduce trigger travel. The caliper jaws and cam profile combine to create an automatic closing action to close the release, whereby rearward pulling or squeezing movement of the trigger engages the caliper jaws to an open bow string or string loop apparatus receiving condition, and relaxing or releasing movement of the trigger closes the caliper jaws into a string retaining position. The release includes an independent mechanism for permitting adjustment of the trigger pressure force, without affecting trigger travel including frictional means of maintaining selected setting. The release head is universally adjustable or lockable relative to a wrist strap or similar mounting.

| Node discovery involving stealth node enumerators | 20060168180 | 20060727 |
| A network node discovery method allows multiple enumerators to concurrently accept and interpret the same enumeration responses from responder nodes on a network. In this manner, the responder nodes do not have to issue individual responses for each enumerator. Each responder maintains a discovery state and one or more per-enumerator session states to manage when the responder should transmit enumeration responses. The enumeration, therefore, proceeds at a target network load, irrespective of the number of enumerators present, and completes in a short time by making efficient use of the network capacity available. Furthermore, an enumerator can determine that it need only wait for responses solicited by other enumerators, rather than requesting them, thereby reducing network traffic in the presence of many concurrently enumerating nodes.

| Heeling apparatus and method | 20060108752 | 20060525 |
| A heeling apparatus includes a shoe with a unique feature in the heel that allows one to walk, run, or roll seamlessly. The appearance is that of normal footwear because of the covert wheel assembly. The stealth wheel in the heel gives one the ability to roll or slide in areas you could only walk. Heeling is a new activity that employs a unique method of rolling and requires a newly learned skill set of balance, positioning, and coordination.

| Push to view system for telephone communications | 20060105794 | 20060518 |
| Provided is a system for providing a “push-to-view” (P2V) capability in conjunction with telecommunication devices. When a key, button or switch on a telecommunication device is pressed or switched, a camera at a remote site is activated. An image is then transmitted from the remote camera and displayed on the communication device. A P2V button enables the function. A separate button enables a user to toggle the P2V button back and forth between the P2V functionality and a push-to-talk functionality. A remote site can either be predefined or selected from a number of possibilities displayed in an address book. A remote device can be configured to automatically accept the view request or may determine whether or not to accept the request based upon the identity of... |
