Space-Flight Assessment of a Small-Scale Collins Type Cryocooler Concept
SBC: Advanced Mechanical Technology, Inc. Topic: N/AA compact, reliable, efficient and inexpensive cryocooler requiring less than 1 kW of power for 2W of cooling at 10 Kelvin is being developed and will be demonstrated. This performance is at least twice as efficient as the best current state-of-the-artfor small low-temperature cryocoolers. The proposed technical approach, whose technical feasibility and suitability for space-based applications h ...

An Efficient Computational Approach to Target Discrimination
SBC: ALPHATECH, INC. Topic: N/ATarget discrimination is one of the critical components of the midcourse phase processing in providing effective missile defense. Currently, detailed models that use an elaborate discrete Bayesian network predict the sensor phenomenology for each possibletarget type and sensor. The predicted sensor phenomenology is compared to the observed phenomenology, and the target type estimate is updated. ...

Physical Model-Based Target Discrimination in Clutter using Surface-Based Radar
SBC: ALPHATECH, INC. Topic: N/AWith the appropriate processing algorithms, surface-based radar has the potential to discriminate reentry vehicles from other threat objects in the presence of clutter, which is a critical part of the BMD problem. Discrimination is based on resolving theobjects in range, and characterizing each object's shape and motion. The algorithm we propose is the model-based approach, which applies a hypot ...

Optical Quantum Information Processing in Photonic Crystals
SBC: Altair Center, Llc. Topic: N/AQuantum mechanics predicts that quantum two-level systems - qubits - can provide fundamentally new modes of information processing due to possible existing in an arbitrary coherent superposition of quantum states. A practical realization of quantuminformation processing requires obviously isolated quantum systems that act as qubits.ALTAIR Center proposed a novel practically realizable physical sy ...
