Dual S&C-Band Telemetry Transmitter System for Missile Testing
SBC: Quasonix, LLC Topic: MDA11T004Reductions and reallocations of telemetry wireless bandwidth have prompted the need for DoD agencies to adapt to operation in more restricted and less desirable frequency spectrum. Telemetering systems must evolve to address these frequency allocation changes, while retaining operational characteristics that are vital to MDA mission success. The design and implementation of high performance transm ...

Accurate Scene Generation Including Atmospheric Effects
SBC: MZA ASSOCIATES CORP Topic: MDA11001Accurate synthetic scene generation is a critical capability required to support sensor development, software and hardware in-the-loop testing and pre-flight test analysis. Current \acIR scene generation codes such as \acFLITES and its predecessor \acCHAMP are excellent tools for creating radiometrically accurate IR scenes including targets of various types. These tools, however, do not currentl ...

Methodologies for Developing Extremely Large IR Scene Projectors
SBC: Imaging Systems Technology, Inc. Topic: MDA11003Under this SBIR Imaging Systems Technology will develop a large area IR scene generation system based on its Plasma-shell technology. Plasma-shells are tiny glass bubbles filled with gas. When energy is applied across the Plasma-shell the gas ionizes to form plasma. The Plasma-shells are applied to substrates to form large area arrays. The arrays are very rugged, and can be made very large. Plasma ...

Multi-Functional Nano-Composite Materials and Manufacturing Processes for Interceptor
SBC: Vector Composites, Inc. Topic: MDA11020The Missile Defense Agency is planning to develop a Next Generation AEGIS Missile (NGAM) as a Ballistic Missile Defense system for deployment in 2020 for defense against threat reentry vehicles. The NGAM system requirements for longer range intercepts and higher velocity leads to the NGAM requirements for lightweight subsystem components including the guidance section (GS) electronic components. T ...

Single Cell Carbide Fueled Thermionic Fuel Element
SBC: Applied Sciences Inc. Topic: N/AIf you can't beat them, join them. Such is the philosophy of Space Exploration Associates, who hired the top talent in Russian and the new Republic of Georgia to develop advanced thermionic converters for SDIO. Unlike other highly publicized exchanged with the Russians, this work will be done in the US and no hardware will cross international lines. The metallurgical wizards from the East have con ...

Joining Carbon Composite Fins to Titanium Heat Pipes
SBC: Applied Sciences Inc. Topic: N/AEverybody knows that composites have high strength, low density, and great thermal properties. They would be great for a number of applications such as fins for spacecraft radiators. So why aren't they used more on spacecraft thermal systems? One reason is joining technology. Although many methods such as brazing and adhesives have been developed for joining composites to metals, these methods are ...
