Not Available This SBIR project proposes to design an optimal methodology for the control of the twintail buffet problem encountered with modern fighter aircraft such as the F/A-18, F-15, and the new joint strike fighter (JSF). The buffet problem occurs when vortices emanating from the leading-edge extension of a delta wing break down before reaching the vertical tails. The resultant Unsteady unb ...

Not Available The proposed Phase I program targets the development of an integrated measurement system for characterizing advanced propuslion systems. Key to this system will be the use of computational modeling inconjunction with the development of advanced instrumentation. The modeling program will consist of two portions. First, a combustor kinetics code willbe implemented to predict combustor ...

Not Available Dynamics Technology, Inc. (DTI) will develop an improved parametric statistical model of SAR and/or LADAR range image clutter to support development and performance characterization of ATR algorithms. The model will account for both the large-scale occurrence statistics and the local spatial structure of clutter objects. Model development will emphasize correct geometric scaling pro ...

Not Available Standard Object Systems, Inc. (SOS) will use its existing phonetic speech recognition (SPRS) tool kit to develop an advanced audio interface for speech recognition in a high noise military environment. A requirement exists for audio command, control, and communications systems in a noisy environment based on natural interfaces, such as speech recognition, which require no training f ...

Not Available Oroni Inc. Phase I, is a proposal to develop, design, build and demonstrate a prototype of a remote and or Point-of-load configurable multiple input, Dc-dc-converter having a single adjustable output voltage . Recent progress in Silicon Carbide (SiC) and Aluminum Gallium Arsenid (AlGaAs) semiconductor electronics technology demonstrate the ability of these material to function unde ...

Not Available The primary objective of this SBIR will be to design a processing system that will meet the high bandwidth, computationally intensive, requirements of real-time tracking through turbulence and wavefront tilt and scintillation measurement and compensation. The processing system design will consist of central processing unit(s), digital signal processor(s), high speed memory modules, ...

Not Available Advances in microwave sources with high peak and average power depend on continued development of reliable modulators capable of testing high-voltage HPM sources at rep-rates up to 100 Hz. In light of budget limitations, new pulser development must be accomplished cost-effectively. This proposal is for a design study of a new 100Hz modulator which provides 600 kV, l (magnetic moment ...
