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. X-Band and Ka Band Low Noise Block Downconverter

    SBC: Custom Mmic Design Services, Inc.            Topic: AF103178

    Custom MMIC Design Services has significant experience in the design, characterization and destruction testing of MMW LNAs. We have successfully designed X-band LNAs on GaAs with sub 1dB noise figures. These designs have been shown to survive up to 1W of RF power with no input protection. CMDS has also designed diode based limiter circuits to extend that protection to 6W. Our innovative design tec ...

  2. X-Band and Ka Band Low Noise Block Downconverter

    SBC: Auriga Measurement Systems LLC            Topic: AF103178

    Phase I tasks will determine the integration plan for the block downconverters used in satellite communication systems. The anticipated advantage of using GaN HFETs for limiter/LNA combination will be quantified. The concept will be verified by device characterization, modeling and a prototype amplifier demonstration. MMIC amplifiers will be designed for the final goals, to be completed and fabric ...

  3. Wireless, Time-synchronized, Event Control System

    SBC: McQ Inc.            Topic: AF103236

    ABSTRACT: The objective of this proposal is to demonstrate the feasibility of producing a wide-area, wireless, time-synchronized event controller system (WTECS). The proposed solution will provide a reliable, low cost, non-intrusive system that can record sensor data, control events, and display data in real time by employing a distributed network of wireless event controllers. BENEFIT: There i ...

  4. Wireless Sensor Network powered by Energy Harvesting Solution Network

    SBC: Prime Photonics, LC            Topic: AF103201

    ABSTRACT: Turbine engine performance, efficiency, and reliability can be greatly improved if additional and evolving instrumentation can be added for input to the FADEC and PHM systems. As this additional instrumentation becomes a larger percentage of the engine"s total life cycle cost; the need to reduce maintenance and installation overhead for new instrumentation becomes increasingly importan ...

  5. Wide Area Infrared Chemical Imager

    SBC: FOSTER-MILLER, INC.            Topic: N/A

    Autonomous standoff detection of lethal or narcotic chemical agents and chemical emissions has long been a major concern. While significant advances have recently been accomplished in remote spectral sensing using regged FTIRs with point detectors, efforts towards spatial chemical discrimination and low-cost portable devices have been lacking.Foster-Miller, Inc. (FMI) together with Boeing/Rockwel ...

  6. Weapon Systems Integration Cost Model (WS-ICM)

    SBC: HJ FORD            Topic: N/A

    The Air Force Research Laboratory Materials and Manufacturing Directorate (AFRL/MLMS) has initiated a multi-phase project to produce a Weapon System Integrated Cost Model (WS-ICM). To support the requirements presented by rapidly changing weapons acquisition environments, WS_ICM's methodology is based on cost as an independent variable through the total life cycle. The model comprises three modu ...

  7. Wavefront Detection with a Wide Dynamic Range

    SBC: LSA            Topic: N/A

    We propose to design and build a tunable, non-contact optical figure-measurement system to measure surface aberrations on a large membrane or segmented mirror. Our approach uses novel electro-optic devices to vary the resolution of the system over four orders of magnitude. Our concept also incorporates algorithms to interface with the mirror-actuator system so that the aberrations in the mirror' ...

  8. Warfighter Portable Power Generation using Heat Pipes

    SBC: Prime Photonics, LC            Topic: OSD10EP7

    The energy harvesting potential of thermoelectric materials has been significantly increased over the last several years. However, while research efforts have demonstrated new thermoelectrics with significantly improved material conversion efficiencies, little work has been done to develop commercially viable thermoelectric energy harvesting systems with both high system-level efficiencies and po ...

  9. Video Analysis Using Perceptual Organization and Machine Learning

    SBC: SCIENTIFIC SYSTEMS CO INC            Topic: AF05309

    ABSTRACT: The goal of this project is to develop, demonstrate, and implement at EAFB the EVASE:"Extensible Video Analysis of Symbology Events"Matlab toolkit. This system is based on the premise that it will learn symbology events during training by an expert operator, and then autonomously detect this symbology in long video sequences, resulting in a list of key events to assist the operator in f ...

  10. Veracity Evaluation of non-Redundant Information in Flight sYstems (VERIFY)

    SBC: SCIENTIFIC SYSTEMS CO INC            Topic: AF103008

    Advanced Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAVs) are composed of complex systems and payloads, whose components can be generally classified as flight critical systems, mission critical systems, and auxiliary systems. Flight critical systems are often designed with redundancy, since failure could prove catastrophic. However, the size, weight, and power constraints preclude all systems from being redundant. Mi ...
