Micro-Particle Debris Characterization from Hyper-Velocity Impacts
SBC: Torch Technologies, Inc. Topic: MDA13T002Leveraging the results of our Phase I work, the Torch Team proposes to execute laboratory-based experiments to elucidate fundamental micro-debris formation mechanisms to improve optical modeling of impacts. Optical signatures from impacts collected over the last decade have identified definitive micro-debris parameter trends. However, current theories have difficulty reproducing these optical ob ...

RF/EO Track Correlation and Characterization (RETC2)
SBC: EXOANALYTIC SOLUTIONS INC Topic: MDA12T002In order to counter emerging threats from the Middle East and Southeast Asia, the Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) is acquiring new sensor (e.g. AN/TPY-2 and PTSS type) and weapon technology (SM-3). As these new technologies are fielded, the BMDS's Command, Control, Battle Management and Communication (C2BMC) component must be able to correlate objects between multiple sensors. Inher ...
