A Bayesian Network Model for Tracking in Support of Discrimination
SBC: NUMERICA CORPORATION Topic: N/AThe objective of the Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) is todetect, identify, and track targets using sensor observations, andengage the lethal objects using interceptors.To achieve the desired level of effectiveness, the system mustdistinguish between the lethal and non-lethal objects.Object identification is performed by a discrimination systemthat relies on a tracking system to associate ...

ABL (Airborne Laser) Detection Sensor Improvements
SBC: VOXTEL, INC. Topic: MDA06054To provide the Airborne Laser (ABL) precision ranging and 3-D track refinement capability for the next generation active ranging system (NGARS), Voxtel will develop an avalanche photodiode (APD) receiver. Unlike the original ARS, which uses a 10.6 µm CO2 laser, Voxtel’s InGaAs-based ARS receiver is designed for high-speed photon counting between 1.0 – 1.6 µm. Operation in the short-wave infr ...

A Broadband and Compact Dual Comb Spectrometer for Precise Field Detection of Trace Elements and Chemicals
SBC: OPTICSLAH, LLC Topic: DTRA20B003There is a growing need to accurately characterize nuclear materials not only for nuclear safeguards and nonproliferation treaty verification but also for forensics and provenance. At present, nuclear material identification requires samples to be collected and sent to laboratories for analysis using large and expensive equipment, such as inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometers (ICP-MS) or s ...

Accurate Insensitive Munitions Modeling Tool Coupling Detailed Chemical Kinetics and Physical Models
SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION Topic: MDA06041Understanding the response of solid rocket motors under cook-off conditions is important to the safety of the military’s weapon arsenal. In this SBIR, CFDRC, teamed with Merrill Beckstead of Brigham Young University (BYU) and ATK Launch Systems, proposes to develop a software toolkit for simulating the response of solid rocket motors (SRM) to fast cook-off events. The complete software package w ...

A Chemical Sniffer to Detect Nuclear Weapons
SBC: EIC LABORATORIES, INC. Topic: N/AWe will develop a vapor phase detector of the chemicals/explosives associated with nuclear weaponry. Radioactivity detection allows accurate weapons verification, but provides too much information on the weaponry design. An alternative is to detect otherchemicals associated with nuclear weaponry. EIC Laboratories has successfully developed vapor phase Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) ...

A CLOUD FORECASTER FOR RV LAUNCHES
SBC: Ktaadn Inc. Topic: N/ATHE OBJECTIVES WILL BE: (1) AN ASSESSMENT OF EXISTING ANALYTICAL TOOLS FOR PREDICTING CLOUD-FREE FIELDS-OF-VIEWS (CFFOV) AND (2) A SPECIFICATION OF A NEW MODEL FOR IMPROVING CFFOV FORECASTS. A REVIEW OF EXISTING CLOUD MEASUREMENT AND MODELING EFFORTS WILL BE MADE. AN IMPROVED MODEL (\CFFOV PREDICTOR\) BASED ON GENERALIZED, NONLINEAR TEMPORAL PREDICTION BY NEURAL NETWORKS TRAINED ON CFFOV DATA WILL ...

A Compact and Fast Long-Wave Infrared (LWIR) Spectroscopy System for Aerosol Combustion
SBC: OPTICSLAH, LLC Topic: DTRA182003We propose developing new instrumentation based on swept-wavelength external cavity quantum cascade lasers (swept-ECQCLs), to acquire physical/chemical data on chemical weapon agent (CWA) and simulant properties in laboratory-scale explosive testing, and to improve/validate computational fluid dynamics (CFD) codes. In Phase I, we demonstrated laboratory measurements of CWA simulant combustion usin ...

A Compact Cold-Cathode Electron Buncher
SBC: MICROWAVE TECHNOLGIES, INC. Topic: N/AMicrowave Technologies Incorporated proposes the prototype development of a compact cold-cathode electron buncher (CCEB) which is well-suited for applications such as sensor systems for ballistic missile defense. The CCEB will provide high-frequencyelectron bunches by combining the features of novel microscopic vacuum triodes with the he robust and reliable solid-state technology. It should prov ...
