Methods and apparatus for communicating geolocated data
Geolocated information is communicated to a user based upon a position of smart device in a building as determined by optical recognition of a first visual identifier, a second visual identifier and a third visual identifier. A distance determined from each of the visual identifiers, as well as a direction of interest indicated by a user. A user interface is generated for display on a Smart Device based upon the position of the Smart Device and direction of interest.
THREE-DIMENSIONAL CO-PRIME CUBIC ARRAY DIRECTION-OF-ARRIVAL ESTIMATION METHOD BASED ON A CROSS-CORRELATION TENSOR
The present disclosure discloses a three-dimensional co-prime cubic array direction-of-arrival estimation method based on a cross-correlation tensor, mainly solving the problems of multi-dimensional signal structured information loss and Nyquist mismatch in existing methods and comprising the following implementing steps: constructing a three-dimensional co-prime cubic array; carrying out tensor modeling on a receiving signal of the three-dimensional co-prime cubic array; calculating six-dimensional second-order cross-correlation tensor statistics; deducing a three-dimensional virtual uniform cubic array equivalent signal tensor based on cross-correlation tensor dimension merging transformation; constructing a four-dimensional virtual domain signal tensor based on mirror image augmentation of the three-dimensional virtual uniform cubic array; constructing a signal and noise subspace in a Kronecker product form through virtual domain signal tensor decomposition; and acquiring a direction-of-arrival estimation result based on three-dimensional spatial spectrum search.

Antenna switching control for AOA capturing in phone-as-a-key systems with de-whitened tone transmission, CRC based validation and event timing
A reader includes a transceiver and a control module. The transceiver is configured to, during a current connection event, monitor notification messages transmitted from a portable access device to a phone-as-a-key (PaaK) system of a vehicle, where the notification messages are transmitted to establish a communication link between the portable access device and the PaaK system. The control module is configured to: perform an in-phase and quadrature phase capture of the notification messages based on fields in one or more of the notification messages, where the fields include a mobile de-whitened section including two or more series of consecutive bits, where the consecutive bits in each of the one or more series are all zeros or all ones; based on the in-phase and quadrature phase capture, determine an angle-of-arrival of the notification messages, and indicate the angle-of-arrival to the PaaK system for permitted access determined by the PaaK system.

LOW SWAP APERTURE FOR DIRECTION FINDING ACROSS EXTREME WIDE BAND
A wideband direction finding (WBDF) aperture employs a limited number of extreme wideband end-fire antenna elements capable of covering a wide frequency bandwidth. Arranging variable sized antenna elements in a specific pattern, the WBDF aperture enables direction finding capability covering an extreme wide frequency band. The pattern arrangement of variable sized elements offers the signal discernment to limit ambiguities in signal angle of arrival. This small form factor design enables the WBDF aperture to be mounted on the surface of a missile, munition, or small UAS wing or fuselage. The WBDF aperture offers a combination of differing sized antenna elements arranged in a specific pattern, combined with direction finding and signal tracking to provide an unambiguous relative azimuth and elevation angle of the target.
