Methods and Apparatus for Reducing Multipath Signal Error Using Deconvolution

A deconvolution approach to adaptive signal processing has been applied to the elimination of signal multipath errors as embodied in one preferred embodiment in a global positioning system receiver. The method and receiver of the present invention estimates then compensates for multipath effects in a comprehensive manner. Application of deconvolution, along with other adaptive identification and estimation techniques, results in completely novel GPS (Global Positioning System) receiver architecture.

Laser Metrology System For A Segmented Telescope Reflector

Report describes proposed laser metrology system in far-infrared telescope with segmented primary reflector. Telescope to be flown in outer space and used to observe celestial objects. Laser metrology system mounted on structure that supported secondary telescope reflector and measures relative positions and alignments of segments of primary reflector. System used in pointing as well as in maintaining surface figure.
