As USSOCOM continues to assess the future operating environment, implementing innovative solutions that promote situational awareness (SA) is of increasing importance. While situational awareness can be tied to a variety of data-types impacting a mission, for the purposes of this effort, situational awareness tied to geospatial intelligence will be the focus. When a warfighter enters an operating ...

A cyber-physical trust anchor is an essential component of a secure additive manufacturing supply chain. Customer discussions show a strong need for low-cost trust anchors as well as high-security, more costly trust anchors. The concept underlying our trust anchor enables implementations that can be described as good, better, best. The two physical-digital components are first embedded digital cod ...

Emrgy, Inc., a pioneer in commercializing hydrokinetic power systems, is teaming with Premier Energy Holdings, Stanford University and University of Tennessee, Knoxville to develop a highly innovative solution to low-cost, riverine and tidal-based clean energy power generation. The project will implement “dynamic tuning” of the hydrokinetic turbine system to optimize performance across variabl ...

Radio Frequency (RF) Fingerprinting is an important capability for the warfighter to identify threats and protect against malicious attacks on the RF spectrum. Most RF Fingerprinting techniques work by identifying small variations in a transmitted signal that are introduced by hardware components (capacitors, inductors, etc) of the transmitter within the non-linear regions of operation. Neural Net ...

Fundamental limitations to Ku-Band planar phased arrays used for the Starlink LEO constellation limit the portability and power efficiency of a man-portable Starlink user terminal. For example, due to these limitations the power output of the array is increased by 500% over the scan angle range for a nearly 24” diameter phased array, with reports of frequent drop outs of signal. Specifically, St ...

Additive manufacturing is steadily advancing towards fulfilling its promise of customized and on-demand production of functional parts. However, performance of as-manufactured parts can differ significantly from the as-designed parts because the as-manufactured geometry differs from the as-designed geometry and the as-manufactured material properties are unknown. Attempts to predict performance of ...

The proposed system will be capable of being weapon mounted on the weapon system, in the Bi-Pod Dovetial mount, for the measuring of the barrel elevation and cant angles in addition to the azimuth pointing reference. The outputs of the device will be transmitted, either wired or wireless (ISW compliant UWB radios) to the Fire Control Unit. The sub-MIL accuracy of the sensors will allow greater res ...
