We propose the continued design, development and testing of spherical piezocrystal transducers and supporting technology including our gyroid transducer. The Phase II effort covers the modeling and demonstration of the gyroid transducer and comparison of performance with several piezocrystal and piezoceramic materials and testing in realistic environment. The electroacoustic performance will be es ...

Yardney is proposing to take the technology we have previously developed in Phase 1 and move toward thinner cell designs to meet the extreme temperature and power requirements of the next generation of high power Naval Aircraft. Just as the optimum Hybrid Electric Vehicle batteries were a step towards more power and thus thinner design, the optimum battery for high power, high energy Naval aviatio ...

Propel will research, investigate, evaluate and rank fiber, yarn and textile technologies with the potential to be embedded into uniform items in order to design and develop a sailor garment system that enables linkage of ship systems to the human in the near, mid and long term.

The opportunity of interest is the introduction and application of a bistatic tool set for both surface and submarine Mid-Frequency (MF) active sonar systems to enhance anti-submarine warfare (ASW) capability in strike group or coordinated surface and submarine ASW operations. The ability to localize threat submarine forces in a battlefield scenario by judicious application of bistatic capability ...

TAC PROPOSES TO CONDUCT A STUDY TO EVALUATE THE COMPARATIVE EFFECTIVENESS OF VARIOUS FORWARD-LOOKING AUTONOMOUS SENSORS AND ALGORITHMS FOR TLAM-C. THE CURRENT TLAM-C USES A TERRAIN MAPPING RADAR ALTIMETER AND CORRELATES THE SENSED AREA AT KEY WAYPOINTS WITH A STORED DIGITAL REPRESENTATION OF THE TERRAIN AREA AT THE WAYPOINTS TO PROVIDE MID-COURSE AND TERMINAL GUIDANCE CORRECTION TO THE INERTIAL NA ...

BTech proposes the design and development of a low-profile, broadband, shear-mode piezocrystal acoustic transducer for deep submergence applications. The Phase I effort considers evaluation of design variants of shear mode transducers with increased pressure operation/tolerance and tradeoffs associated with the same. Design feasibility is supported with calculations of expected performance and whe ...

We propose to develop an acoustic and vibration noise monitoring system for investigating navy ship noise. BTech will explore the different vector sensor technologies, packaging, data recording, mounting, and noise software analysis.

The design and development of compact, low frequency, broadband acoustic source technology is considered for the Mobile ASW Training Targets. The Phase I effort considers evaluation of several novel low frequency transducer designs and exploration of the associated trade space, including performance, size and cost. Design feasibility is supported with calculations of expected performance and by pr ...

A multi-band dual-aperture SATCOM antenna is proposed to support rotary-wing aircraft thru-rotor performance at X, Ku and Ka-bands including Ku-band TCDL as an option. Our proposed effort focuses on a low-cost design with reduced height and leverages existing aperture and radome technology from our prime contractor partner Lockheed-Martin. It also leverages existing digital modem technology develo ...

Electronic Warfare (EW) systems Human Machine Interface (HMI) is used to classify and correlate electronic emissions. The HMI must maximize operator efficiency and support effective decision making and must create a workspace that reduces the operator?s manual interaction with the system. In order to capture the HMI requirements, SEA CORP will follow a structured process to study the AN/BLQ-10 ope ...
