Extensions to the ONBU Algorithm for Increased Operational Relevance
SBC: NUMERICA CORPORATION Topic: MDA14003We propose maturation and extension of an innovative batch algorithm for track scene history reconstruction, and track refinement conditioned on this history, given input source track data from one or more sensors. The envisioned method is designed to process both kinematic data (e.g., track reports) and feature/discrimination data (e.g., useful to distinguish objects seen by multiple sensors to s ...

High-Speed Weapon Radomes
SBC: FIRST RF CORPORATION Topic: AF121092As more and more advanced hypersonic weapons are developed, vehicle temperatures are expected to near 1250°K (977°C); as flight times increase, these temperatures are expected to saturate the entire vehicle. Typically, forward-looking RF and IR sensors are collocated in the same protective radome, which degrades the performance of both systems. FIRST RF proposes a significantly different app ...

Multi-functional Membrane Deorbit Module and Deployable High Gain Reflectarray
SBC: M.M.A. DESIGN LLC Topic: AF083198As Department of Defense (DoD) needs and requirements change, there is a developing need for Radio Frequency (RF) antenna systems that can support higher performance missions. These missions require increased apertures to be available from the same satellite platform, and will additionally require that this capability be delivered at a lower mission cost. MMA Design has developed a concept for a n ...

Innovative and Modular Open System Radar Algorithm Test Environment
SBC: NUMERICA CORPORATION Topic: MDA14005MDA invests millions annually on new radar technologies. However, because it is often difficult to relate theoretical advances to warfighter advantages, MDA is challenged to determine the value of certain investments. A critical need is an evaluation tool that can assess early-development radar algorithms, using consistent metrics, so that promising investments can be quickly differentiated from l ...
