Hybrid NLC Modulator
Not Available DSR proposes to develop and validate innovative techniques for effectively performing emitter contact tracking and correlation. The proposed approach will provide the capability to track intermittent emitters effectively, reduce emitter history loss, and mitigate subsequent re-correlation requirements. DSR has identified two primary approaches for Enhanced Multi-emitter tracking in an intermittent environment: (1) Data Synchronization; and (2) Tracker Interval Modification with associated enhanced inputs. The proposed research will test the algorithms using simulated data to establish baseline performance and real data to validate the algorithm against a realistic environment. DSR has developed an Engagement Defense Tracking Model (EDTM) that will be used to provide a realistic simulation of the track association process; realistic simulation is essential to the development of enhanced tracker concepts. It is a passive tracking model based on EW signals received on spatially separated AIEWS arrays and consisting of time series of estimated (and platform stabilized) azimuth and elevation angles for emitter (source) detections (threshold crossings).
