The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY24 is not expected to be complete until March, 2025.

Download all SBIR.gov award data either with award abstracts (290MB) or without award abstracts (65MB). A data dictionary and additional information is located on the Data Resource Page. Files are refreshed monthly.

The SBIR.gov award data files now contain the required fields to calculate award timeliness for individual awards or for an agency or branch. Additional information on calculating award timeliness is available on the Data Resource Page.

  1. Heat Flux-Based Calorimeter for Active Thermal Coatings

    SBC: ATEC, Inc.            Topic: AF04147

    We propose to develop a calorimeter for accurately measuring the performance of active thermal control materials that can be easily deployed on spacecraft and satellites. Our calorimeter will be based on thin film heat flux gauges, which measure heat flux by determining the temperature difference across a thermally insulating film. The temperature on each side of the film is measured via an arra ...

  2. High Bandwidth Optoelectronic Data Interfaces for Satellites

    SBC: ALPHION CORP.            Topic: AF04043

    This SBIR Phase I project proposes the feasibility study of integrated all-optical 2R regeneration and 3R optical signal regeneration devices for use as high-speed interfaces in satellite applications (solicitation AF04-043). Currently available products achieve regeneration of signals by resorting to Optical to Electrical and then Electrical to optical conversion (OEO), which results in costly, ...

  3. Achieving Ubiquity: Technologies to Make Intelligence Available Everywhere on Demand

    SBC: COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY ASSOCIATES, INC.            Topic: AF04100

    This research proposal is directed at the development of intelligent agent software infrastructure designed to support the near real-time situational awareness information requirements of warfighters anywhere on the globe. Our focus is on the development and ubiquitous delivery of user-focused "actionable intelligence" (as opposed to the dissemination/publication of large volumes of raw ISR data ...

  4. Technologies for Injecting Targeting and Re-targeting Data in Precision-Guided Weapons in Flight

    SBC: COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY ASSOCIATES, INC.            Topic: AF04120

    This research effort will investigate the feasibility of an automated end-to-end sensor-to-weapon environment, within which user-specified rules of engagement can evolve from today's manual targeting and weapon-target pairing processes to highly automated real/near real time `kill chain' operations, thus enabling automated generation and delivery of targeting and retargeting data from an operator/ ...

  5. Bio-Inspired Delayed Stall Fan/Compressor for Increased Performance

    SBC: CONTINUUM DYNAMICS INC            Topic: AF04188

    Current turbomachinery designs have been optimized, for the most part, using "average flow" design concepts and tools. Future advances in engine performance, especially with regard to increasing per stage pressure ratio, stall margins, and reduced sensitivity to inlet distortion in fans/compressors, must come from innovative technologies which move beyond the current "steady flow" design space. ...

  6. A high-performance phase shifter for phased array antenna

    SBC: Dymas Research Incorporated            Topic: AF04026

    Recently, expanding wireless communication systems have presented new challenges to design and produce high quality miniature tunable phase shifters with low cost. Dymas Research proposes a novel RF phase shifter fabricated on high-performance ferreelectric films to provide tunability for adaptive microwave devices. This tunable microwave device has the advantage of achieving frequency or phase tu ...

  7. An active polarization imaging system

    SBC: Dymas Research Incorporated            Topic: AF04210

    Polarization imaging system has been explored as a method to improve target detection capabilities in remote sensing and other applications. Polarization imaging can improve target contrast, reduce clutter, aid in the defeat of intervening scatterers, and provide orientation information about various target features. The feasibility of polarization technology application in separation of a boost ...

  8. Efficient High Power Amplification Technology for Munitions

    SBC: F&H APPLIED SCIENCE ASSOC., INC.            Topic: AF04169

    Recent advent, and a significant progress made in the wide band gap semiconductor technology offer today a promise for a superior power amplifier. More specifically, emerging Gallium Nitrate (GaN) HEMT devices are shown to operate in extreme temperatures (~600C), exhibiting high breakdown voltages (~100V) and high current densities (~1.5A/mm). In order to meet these challenging technical requireme ...

  9. CFD Design Tool for Fuel Injectors in Turbine Engines

    SBC: Flow Parametrics, LLC            Topic: AF04293

    The objectives of the proposed effort are to demonstrate the use of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) as a design tool for reducing engine development time and cost, to reduce fuel nozzle-combustor test requirements, and to demonstrate the capability of CFD to accelerate the incorporation of promising, actively controlled fuel nozzles and combustors into aircraft engines. These overall objectives ...

  10. Luminescent Coating for Indicating Composite Impact Damage

    SBC: GMA INDUSTRIES, INC.            Topic: AF04133

    This proposal describes work in developing a luminescent coating for the passive monitoring of impact sites on composite airframe structures. Despite high strength to weight ratios, graphite fiber composite materials are susceptible to significant internal damage due to impact from runway debris, human carelessness, and bird strikes. Identification of these impact sites is vital to aircraft perfor ...
