In this STTP project, AVIRTEK will leverage the tools and algorithms developed in the AMAP Phase II SBIR to develop an AMAP-based Autonomic Security Operations Center (ASoC) system that continuously monitors the cyber resources and services 24 by 7, performs anomaly behavior analysis to detect malicious activities and proactively recommends actions to stop attacks and minimize their impacts. AMAP- ...

The EPA has established health advisory levels at 70 parts per trillion (ppt) for combined PFAS concentration. Water resources are susceptible to contamination by PFAS release from industry and landfill sites. Consequently, there is a need for on-site pretreatment technologies for PFASs in industrial wastewater. Electrochemical treatment has been shown to be effective for the mineralization of PFA ...

Aging infrastructure is a major challenge faced by the water utilities in the USA and across the globe, and with an overall rating of D by the ASCE, water distribution systems are no exception. Approximately 240,000 water main breaks occur in US systems every year with a cost of at least $3.6 billion. As such, innovative, economical, and sustainable solutions are needed in renewing the water trans ...

Today’s modern command and control centers are critical to the operation of the USAF and the successful implementation of US military doctrine. The control center is staffed by dedicated warfighters who are responsible for critical support operations including: mission planning, airspace management, combat assessment, integrated air and missile defense planning, and satellite orbit analysis ...

Alphacore, Inc. proposes to design, simulate, and verify a radiation-hard fully-integrated gallium nitride (GaN) based V-band power amplifier (PA). As detailed in Air Force’s Phase I solicitation subtopic AF182-111 the designed power amplifier will exhibit greater than 30 W of saturated output power (Psat) at power added efficiency (PAE) level of >30%. The amplifier will maintain this outpu ...

In this SBIR, we will leverage our long experience in ARAIM and in spoofing detection techniques to develop ARAIM+: an improved ARAIM system that also detects GNSS-wide intentional simultaneous faults and spoofing attacks. The main objective of the proposed Phase-I effort is to design, simulate, and prototype ARAIM+ to meet stringent performance requirements with limited computer resources. ARAIM+ ...

The Air Force is seeking the development of an Antenna Electronics (AE) for a Controlled Reception Pattern Antenna (CRPA) system that provides an anti-jam (AJ) capability covering four GNSS frequency bands. Existing AEs can provide simultaneous protection of L1 and L2 – but a navigation system utilizing L5 and E6 as well would improve satellite visibility, be more resistant to spoofing, and ...

NoMo Diagnostics is developing the first embedded brainwave sensor system for real-time concussion detection addressing a significant unmet medical need for contact sport athletes and military personnel. Sport-related concussion is a common mild traumatic brain injury affecting roughly 1,200,000 Americans annually yet only 300,000 are diagnosed. Depending on the sport, it is estimated for every 1 ...

Our ability to respond to new chemical and biological threats is limited by a lack of facilities, personnel, and equipment able to rapidly conduct precision molecular analysis. We can remove this bottleneck by deploying a protective network of new automated, high performance surveillance equipment around ordinary warfighters and civilians for the first time. Sensitive enough to detect all manner o ...

Identify technical feasibility, financial sustainability and defense need for applying 300 Below's commercialized cryogenic treatment process to Air Force weapons platforms, including aircraft and ground vehicles, to increase accuracy of firearms 50%, double the life of gun barrels, help sustain high cyclic rates on weapons, and ensure easier cleaning and maintenance of firearms while reducing cor ...
