Radiation-defect mitigation in InAs/GaSb strained-layer superlattice infrared detectors
SBC: TRUVENTIC LLC Topic: MDA16011This Phase II SBIR project will advance the technical readiness level (TRL) of our Phase-I-demonstrated strategy for mitigating radiation damage in GaSb/InAs Type II Strained-Layer-Superlattice (SLS) long-wave infrared (LWIR) detectors. Our mitigation strategy will be optimized for detectors to be deployed in interceptor seeker systems that will be exposed to radiation in the near-Earth orbital en ...

Prototyping of Transform-Domain INS Mechanization and Algorithmic Correction
SBC: QUNAV LLC Topic: MDA16012QuNav proposes to validate and prototype a TRansform-domain INS Mechanization and Algorithmic Correction (TRIMAC). TRIMAC utilizes joint time/frequency domain processing of inertial sensor data in order to mitigate INS drift in the absence of external navaids (such as GPS). Frequency-domain implementation is particularly designed to improve the inertial performance in high-vibration missile enviro ...

Industrial-quality acceleration of MDA’s missile defense simulation infrastructures —A novel theory of optimal data compression inspired on the OSF
SBC: Accelogic, LLC Topic: MDA17004MDA’s Objective-Simulation-Framework (OSF) is a crucial infrastructure for improving the nation’s BMDS. Albeit successful in enabling high-quality ground tests, OSF’s distributed simulations are hampered by hefty data transmissions that could consume up to 50% of the time in a single run. To address this problem, and with the ultimate goal of substantially accelerating OSF tra ...
