Secure Wireless Communication Using Coherent Distributed Transmission and Spatial Signal Decomposition
Anton Schlegel, Jason M/ Merlo, Samuel Wagner +2
We present a new approach to secure wireless communications using coherent distributed transmission of signals that are spatially decomposed between a two-element distributed anten…
Three-Dimensional Millimeter-Wave Imaging Using Active Incoherent Fourier Processing and Pulse Compression
Jorge R. Colon-Berrios, Jason M. Merlo, Jeffrey A. Nanzer
We present a novel three-dimensional (3D) imaging approach that combines two-dimensional spatial Fourier-domain imaging techniques with traditional radar pulse compression to recov…
Collaborative Beamforming for Communication Applications Using a Two-Element Fully-Wireless Open-Loop Coherent Distributed Array
Jason M. Merlo, Jeffrey A. Nanzer
In this work we demonstrate a proof of concept of a fully-wireless two-node open-loop coherent distributed communication system and evaluate its performance by transmitting QPSK ,…
Real-Time High-Accuracy Digital Wireless Time, Frequency, and Phase Calibration For Coherent Distributed Antenna Arrays
Jason M. Merlo, Samuel Wagner, John Lancaster +1
This work presents a fully-digital high-accuracy real-time calibration procedure for frequency and time alignment of open-loop wirelessly coordinated coherent distributed antenna a…
Distributed Beamforming Using Decentralized Time Synchronization in a Six-Element Array
Naim Shandi, Jason M. Merlo, Jeffrey A. Nanzer
We demonstrate a distributed beamforming and beamsteering from a six-node distributed phased array using fully wireless coordination with decentralized time synchronization. In wir…
