The objective of this Phase I SBIR effort is to develop and demonstrate an advanced, space antenna with a steerable, formable beam for Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites. GPS satellites currently use fixed beam L-band antennas to provide hemispherical coverage of the earth. There is a need to be able to focus the GPS broadcast on a specific area of interest, steer it to maintain the beam o ...

The Phase II program has two broad technical objectives. The first objective involves developing a new class of very high-energy density reactive multiphase blast explosives (RMBX). The second objective involves testing these new RMBX compositions with innovative warhead concepts designed to produce different damage mechanisms, such as: a well-defined lethality radius with no or minimal fragments; ...

The main objective of Knowledge Based Systems, Inc. (KBSI) for this project is to develop the Avionics Systems Susceptibility and Risk Analysis Toolkit (ASSURANT) and supporting method to enable avionics and systems engineers and cyber defense experts to comprehensively perform susceptibility assessments of avionics and platform systems as well as information and communications technology (ICT) su ...

Surface-to-air missiles represent a serious threat to both military and civilian aviation. However, development of more effective countermeasures requires realistic simulation of the missile plume over a wide range of observation distances to improve recognition capability. Accordingly, the purpose of this program is to design and build a next generation, extended range pyrophoric fluid valve (ERP ...

ABSTRACT: Ascendant Engineering Solutions (AES) proposes to build upon the modeling and analysis and conceptual design effort from the execution of its Phase I and II MSGLPS contracts to develop a 3" flight-worthy form-fit-function Key Technology Demonstrator system during a Phase II contract. The primary objectives are to: 1) Precisely point and hold a laser spot on a target; 2) Safely control th ...

ABSTRACT:In the Phase I effort, IFT proposed a Holistic networking Infrastructure for tactical Satellite Communication Networks (HISCoN). It supports optimal network resource management and cross-layer cooperation that allow satellite communication networks to intelligently accommodate the communication needs of various missions/tasks with diverse traffic characteristics and drastically different ...

The warfighter has a specific need to enhance anti-jam (AJ) performance of satellite communications in the presence of RF interference environments. This STMP effort will provide the warfighter with the capability to employ RF interference mitigation and...

Based upon existing low-cost, high-performance seeker technology, and our successful Phase I program, Mustang Technology Group offers to deliver a multi-channel Ka-band seeker in Phase II. BENEFIT: Affordable high performance RF seeker technology for applications in today''s lower-cost submunitions.

The Phase II program objective is to design, fabricate and test a linear 70 Watt power amplifier that is consistent with QPSK and 12/4 QAM and has 35% power added efficiency across the 30 to 31 GHz band.ENGIN-IC will develop a two stage power amplifier MMIC that has an output power near 15 W and has > 45% power added efficiency.ENGIN-IC will integrate these MMICs through planar In / Outphasing com ...

The objective of the proposed effort is to demonstrate the feasibility of the scalable 3D display technology by Zebra Imaging to produce realistic auto-viewable 3D images for Air Force mission applications related to air, space and cyberspace. A display producing such holographic images provides intuitive visualization of three-dimensional (3D) data and scene information from a wide range of data ...
