Successful platform-integration of high power microwave (HPM) directed energy weapons (DEW) poses very demanding challenges.  Unwanted radiation (near-field and far-field) and surface currents locall ...

The system-level design of a geolocation system for detecting and locating RF emitters on a small, unmanned aerial vehicle (SUAV) will be competed. The design will include system-level design, sensor ...

Autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) participation in controlled airspace requires that the UAV behave just as a human-piloted aircraft. Forward airbases with Air Traffic Control (ATC) can be com ...

This effort is focussed toward improvements in efficiency-bandwidth performance of electrically small antennas derived from innovative electromagnetic meta-material designs. Optimizations are sought ...

Measurements of Total Hemispherical Reflectance under high temperature conditions are needed for accurate assessment of lethality functions of the ABL program. During engagement by high power lasers, ...

In recent years, military engagements have moved from the traditional battlefield to urban or suburban settings. In this environment, security patrols are much more likely to encounter an IED or hidd ...

We propose to generate electricity for data buoys in a whole new way, leveraging SARA’s laboratory-demonstrated and patented liquid-metal magnetohydrodynamic (LMMHD) technology. Phase I will prove ...

The Phase I effort demonstrated the ability of a ground-insertable probe to extend the reach of LIBS technology to buried targets and that all the components can be made completely portable. Phase II ...

The Navy is currently developing an Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) program. Currently operating systems require human operators for each USV. Manual operation of USVs results in an inefficient use o ...

Present Blue-Green lasers are inefficient (0.5 – 2.0 %) owing to the losses incurred by using multiple/cascaded solid-state and two or more nonlinear optical frequency conversion stages. We propose ...
