US Patent Issued to Board of Regents, The University of Texas System on Aug. 12 for "Conformal frequency selective surfaces for arbitrary curvature" (Texas Inventors)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., Aug. 12 -- United States Patent no. 12,387,288, issued on Aug. 12, was assigned to Board of Regents, The University of Texas System (Austin, Texas).

"Conformal frequency selective surfaces for arbitrary curvature" was invented by Raymond C. Rumpf (El Paso, Texas), Cesar Luis Valle (El Paso, Texas) and Gilbert T. Carranza (El Paso, Texas).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A method of conforming a periodic array to a surface is provided. The method comprises calculating, with a spatially-variant lattice algorithm, a pair of planar gratings across the surface, wherein the planar gratings are generated via reciprocal lattice vectors and summing the pair of planar gratings.
