MULTIPLE COHERENT BEAM COMBINATION SYSTEMS SHARING A COMMON RECEIVER
A targeting receiver operates with beam emitters. Each emitter generates coherent beams directed towards a target as a composite beam having an associated signature. For each composite beam, the target reflects a proportion of radiation intensity as a reflected radiation component. A receiver telescope collects target-reflected radiation and directs the radiation to a spatial filter. The reflected radiation includes radiation components, at least some of which are combined as a combined radiation composed of the reflected radiation components. Intensity of the combined radiation indicates the intensity of the composite beams impinging on the target. The spatial filter filters the reflected radiation by selectively passing the combined radiation. Each component of the combined radiation is identifiable by the signature associated with the composite beam corresponding to the component of the combined radiation. In certain embodiments, a distinguishing module is associated with the receiver and distinguishes the components based on the signature.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ALIGNMENT OF BEAMS OF COHERENT BEAM ARRAY
A CBC system includes an array of beam sources generating coherent beams directed towards a target. The beam sources have associated adjustable phase modulators and beam steering arrangements. For each of the beams in a subset of the beams, the corresponding beam steering arrangement is actuated to steer the beam, and the corresponding phase modulator is actuated to modulate a current phase of the beam between at least three phase states. A detector monitors an intensity parameter that varies as a function of an intensity of radiation impinging on the target. A controller calculates, for each of the beams in the subset, a current value that is representative of a relative intensity of the beam based at least in part on the monitored intensity parameter at each of the at least three phase states. The calculated value is indicative of a current position of the beam relative to the target.

MULTIPLE COHERENT BEAM COMBINATION SYSTEMS SHARING A COMMON RECEIVER
A targeting receiver operates with beam emitters. Each emitter generates coherent beams directed towards a target as a composite beam having an associated signature. For each composite beam, the target reflects a proportion of radiation intensity as a reflected radiation component. A receiver telescope collects target-reflected radiation and directs the radiation to a spatial filter. The reflected radiation includes radiation components, at least some of which are combined as a combined radiation composed of the reflected radiation components. Intensity of the combined radiation indicates the intensity of the composite beams impinging on the target. The spatial filter filters the reflected radiation by selectively passing the combined radiation. Each component of the combined radiation is identifiable by the signature associated with the composite beam corresponding to the component of the combined radiation. In certain embodiments, a distinguishing module is associated with the receiver and distinguishes the components based on the signature.

Coherent Beam Combination (CBC) Systems and Methods
A coherent beam combination (CBC) system (10) includes an array of beam sources (12a, 12b and 12c) generating coherent beams directed towards a target (T). The phase modulators (14a, 14b and 14c) allow adjustment of relative phase offsets of the beams. A detector (16) monitors an intensity of the radiation impinging on an area of the target (T). A controller (18) receives the intensity parameter and controls a phase adjustment of the beams according to a deterministic (i.e., quantitative) measurement of a phase offset of each beam relative to a representative phase of the sum of all the other beams. This is achieved by using interferometric techniques, referred to herein as Target In-the-Loop Interferometry (TILI).

abcc) generating coherent beams directed towards a target (T). The phase modulators (14a, 14b and 14c) allow adjustment of relative phase offsets of the beams. A detector (16) monitors an intensity of the radiation impinging on an area of the target (T). A controller (18) receives the intensity parameter and controls a phase adjustment of the beams according to a deterministic (i.e., quantitative) measurement of a phase offset of each beam relative to a representative phase of the sum of all the other beams. This is achieved by using interferometric techniques, referred to herein as Target In-the-Loop Interferometry (TILI).
An explosive system and corresponding method employ a number of explosive portions, each of sub-critical dimensions so that initiation of the portion would result in incomplete detonation.

APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR OPERATING A HEATERLESS HOLLOW CATHODE, AND AN ELECTRIC SPACE PROPULSION SYSTEM EMPLOYING SUCH A CATHODE
A heaterless hollow cathode provides electron emission current in an electric space propulsion system. A mechanical, thermal, and electromagnetic design of the cathode apparatus is presented, and a method of operation for rapid ignition and stabilization of the cathode is provided. The keeper of the cathode apparatus has a thickness change which reduces the flow of heat away from the cathode's emitter assembly. The method for heating the emitter assembly includes controlling applied voltages so that the current flowing from the emitter assembly to the keeper is maintained at a predetermined fixed value. By this method, damage to the electron emitting surfaces of the emitter assembly by electric arcing and/or by depletion of dopant materials is avoided.
