A SOF Tactical Repeater will be a small, rugged, lightweight, programmable, easily deployed, software radio repeater that can be awakened via RF, by an authorized user, from a passive sleep mode. One or more antennae should be deployed away from RF shadowing, with line of sight to all users. In Phase I, Lambda Science will develop emplacement / antenna deployment methods, standby / wake-up metho ...

Next Century Corporation and Southwest Research Institute have teamed to design and build the Team Transportable (T2) system proposed herein. Our T2 solution is designed to provide forward-deployed ground forces and commanders with an easy-to-deploy, remote, unmanned signal collection and processing front-end from which real-time updates are supplied to forward-deployed team members and to the ba ...

Special Operation Forces personnel require a rugged, miniature receiver that is capable of monitoring RF energy while deployed on a mission. The RF receiver will give a better picture of the electromagnetic threat environment enabling a heightened situational awareness, yet the device must be small enough that it does not hamper the SOF warfighter during missions requiring stealth and rapid mobil ...

Special Operations Forces (SOF) operators need a suite of lightweight, easily deployed, directional tactical antennas with "low-observables" to supplement or replace the omnidirectional radio antennas currently used during Special Reconnaissance missions. This suite of tactical antennas will enable greater communications ranges and more covert transmissions.In Phase II, Syntonics will design, buil ...

The Phase II contract will develop an innovative, Secure World-wide Communications Interface System, SWCIS, for deployed Special Operations Forces (SOF) Combatant Craft. The SWCIS will function similar to tracking systems that fleet trucking industries use. The NSW RIB 110 will serve as the host platform for this development effort. The SWCIS capability will permit SOF Combatant Craft real time ...

Since the inception of windscreens on aircraft, the effects of erosion on the transparent materials utilized for this application has been problematic. With the development of faster aircraft, Night Vision Goggles and various sensors which utilize electromagnetic waves in the visible and IR ranges this problem has been intensified. The team at United Protective Technologies, propose to provide dat ...
