Federal regulations require that USAF supersonic, subsonic and launch vehicle flight operations be assessed as to possible effects to the near-shore environment. Current modeling capability for this topic is lacking in key areas: reliability of results, environmental assessment requirements, field validation, biological nature of the receiver, and accounting for the key interface boundary condit ...

SAR/GMTI payloads are required for advanced weapons. Applied Radar has developed a SAR/GMTI capability through its commercially-developed Attritable Lightweight Sensing & Targeting Radar (ALSTR) for Air Force SAR and GMTI applications. The ALSTR was recently demonstrated as an airborne SAR for the US Army at Eglin AFB, FL in July 2020. Under the proposed funding, the radar will be upgraded to meet ...

This project will develop additional sensing capabilities for the monitoring of corrosive atmospheres. One important parameter in the corrosion prediction is the presence of chlorides in the air surrounding the assets to be protected. Classical methods to

THERE IS A NEED TO IMPROVE RECEPTION OF AND SYNCHRONIZATION OF WIDEBAND SIGNALS OF UNKNOWN PARAMETERS. FURTHER DEVELOPMENT OF THE MATHEMATICAL THEORY OF THE ESTIMATION OF GENERATOR CONFIGURATIONS FROM THEIR OUTPUTS WILL HELP TO ACCOMPLISH THIS GOAL. A PROMISING APPROACH IS TO APPLY SHIFT-AND-ADD AND OTHER PROPERTIES OF LINEAR SEQUENCES TO THE DETERMINATION OF THE GENERATOR CONFIGURATION. A PROPOSE ...

Polymer Bridge Systems, with over 8 years of research composite bridges, found that success hinges on being dollar-for-dollar cost competitive with steel and concrete. We founded the four "golden rules" that are required: the bridge must be: 1) factory build; 2) road transportable; 3) installed in 1 eight-hour day; and 4) be cost-competitive on an installed cost basis. This bridge will be buil ...

A W-band digital communications transceiver will be developed with 5 GHz instantaneous bandwidth utilizing the 71 - 76 and 81 - 86 GHz frequency spectrum recently allocated by the FCC. This project has both military and commercial applications for SATCOM and Point-to-Point digital communications using formats such as 1.25 Gbps and 10 Gbps Ethernet for extremely wideband data and video transmission ...

A networked avian radar system is proposed for bird strike mitigation. A team consisting of Applied Radar as well as partners AscentXYZ and and Elsis will work with the 6th Air Mobility command U.S. Bird/Wildlife Aircraft Strike Hazard Team (BASH) stakeholders to customize the Avian Radar solution and provide a demonstration to prove its versatility and improvements over current AF equipment.

THIS PROJECT OUTLINES A RELIABILITY AND MAINTAINABILITY KNOWLEDGE BASE AND THE HYPERTEXT INTERFACE REQUIRED TO TRANSPORT THIS DATA INTO COMPUTER-AIDED DESIGN (CAD) ENVIRONMENTS. THE PRIMARY FOCUS OF THE PROPOSAL IS THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE FOUNDATION FOR AN ENGINEERING RELIABILITY AND MAINTAINABILITY INFORMATION PRESENTATION SYSTEM TO SUPPORT ELECTRONIC CIRCUIT AND SYSTEMS DESIGN ENGINEERS IN A CAD ...

THR PRIORITIZATION OF THREATS AND THE PRIORITIZATION OF TARGETS REPRESENT A CRUCIAL ASPECT OF CURRENT AIR FORCE PLANNING. IN A WORLD WHERE THE POTENTIAL THREATS ARE INCREASING WHILE THE AVAILABLE RESOURCES ARE DECREASING , A MODES IS REQUIRED WHICH WILL INABLE THE QUANTITATIVE COMPARISON OF ALL LEVELS OF POSSIBLE TACTICAL AND STATEGIC DECISIONS. WE WILL BEGIN THE DEVELOPMENT OF SUCH A MODEL DURING ...
