BONN Corporation (BONN) has chosen to concentrate on a methodology that computes an optimal target search in near-real-time, with the capability of accommodating user-definable optimality based upon time / pathlength, probability of target detection target value, and survivability in a dense threat environment. This methodology will be extensible to address multiple airborne platforms and multipl ...

Bonn Corporation (BONN) has chosen to concentrate on researching a methodology that computes target movement prediction in real-time based on data fusion, data correlation, and learning algorithms, with the inhernt capability to accomodate user-definable inputs. BONN Will determine the required static (e.g., operational limitations and capabilities) and dynamic (e.g., weather and orders of ba ...

BONN has chosen to concentrate on an innovative concept that will lead to the design and development of a single, integrated flight performance model for various aircraft platforms. This flight performance model, to be known as the Common Flight Performance System CFLIPS), also features an easy-to-use interface that will enable TAMPS Mission Planning Module (MPM) developers to quickly and eas ...

Chrome replacement and corrosion protection coatings in thermal environments is needed. Combustion chemical vapor deposition (CCVDsm), a process invented by the principal investigator, is the only open atmosphere CVD technique for ceramics and metals. The CCVD method has been shown to inexpensively and quickly apply dense, adherent thin films in a continuous manner. This technology can be use ...

This advanced development programis devoted to the development of computer models for analyzing 1) antenna patttern performance, 2) antenna coupling, and 3) RADHAZ for antennas that are enclosed or embedded in composite structures, and 4) the resultant RCS of the integrated antenna/composite structures. The computer models will be based on the Spherical Angular Function (SAF) analysis technique fo ...

A roadmap for affordability will be developed in Phase I based on Robust Design Simulaton(RDS) which will be applied in Phase II to address affordability design tradeoffs for propulsion system technologies in V/STOL aircraft. The V-22 tilt rotor aircraft with the T-406 engine will be used as the baseline V/STOL aircraft for affordability measurement verification and validation of the RDS. The pr ...

It is proposed that the wide range of nonmilitary applications for DoD UAVs be identified and assimilated into a representative set of mission profiles and vehicle specifications, to identify the DoD UAVs that could be used to conduct such missions and to meet such specifications, and to identify opportunities to significantly leverage DoD development and acquisition resources by eliminating ident ...

Survival of present day microelectronic circuits depends on their protection from self generated and external electromagnetic interference. This proposal is oriented toward the class of interference generally referred to as overvoltage transients. Means for mitigating these transients include gas discharge tubes, and various solid state devices. Each of these has their own advantages in particu ...

The U.S. Navy has already achieved dramatic cost savings using teleconferencing technology in its Chief Electronic Schoolhouse Network (CESN) project. Even greater cost savings could be achieved if teleconferencing technology were portable and reliable enough to be used from any geographic location (ship or shore), in the world. At the same time, experiments like the Defense Information Services ...
