System and method for a digitally beamformed phased array feed
Systems and methods are provided for a digital beamformed phased array feed. The system may include a radome configured to allow electromagnetic waves to propagate; a multi-band software defined antenna array tile; a power and clock management subsystem configured to manage power and time of operation; a thermal management subsystem configured to dissipate heat generated by the multi-band software defined antenna array tile; and an enclosure assembly. The multi-band software defined antenna array tile may include a plurality of coupled dipole array antenna elements; a plurality of frequency converters; and a plurality of digital beamformers.
LINE-OF-SIGHT DETECTOR AND COMMUNICATION SYSTEM IN SUB-THZ AND THZ RANGES
One embodiment provides a line of sight detector. The line of sight detector includes a first TeraFET (field effect transistor) including a first source, a first drain, a first gate, and a first channel having a first end and a second end. The line of sight detector further includes a first source antenna coupled to the first source; a first drain antenna coupled to the first drain; and a third antenna. Each antenna is configured to receive an incident radiation signal having a frequency in a sub terahertz or a terahertz frequency range. Each antenna is positioned a respective distance from each other antenna. Each distance is less than one wavelength of the incident radiation signal.

Systems and methods for multiantenna orientation and direction detection
Systems and methods are provided to simultaneously determine both angle of arrival (AoA) and angle of departure (AoD) of a signal transmitted between two or more radio frequency (RF)-enabled wireless devices (e.g., such as BLE modules). The disclosed systems and methods may be so implemented in one embodiment to determine AoD even in the case where the transmitting wireless device is at the same time operating in a departure (or AoD) transmitting mode by transmitting a RF signal from multiple antenna elements of at least one switched antenna array using a given switching pattern or sequence implemented by an array switch.
