The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY24 is not expected to be complete until March, 2025.

Download all SBIR.gov award data either with award abstracts (290MB) or without award abstracts (65MB). A data dictionary and additional information is located on the Data Resource Page. Files are refreshed monthly.

The SBIR.gov award data files now contain the required fields to calculate award timeliness for individual awards or for an agency or branch. Additional information on calculating award timeliness is available on the Data Resource Page.

  1. ACCELERATED LIFE TESTING DEVELOPMENT FOR DETERMINING THE RELIABILITY OF SSN-21 HULL COATINGS

    SBC: TEXAS RESEARCH INSTITUTE , AUSTIN, INC.            Topic: N/A

    The integrity of rubber-to-metal bonds is an area of reliability concern, particularly in systems that are exposed to the harsh conditions of the marine environment. Accelerated life testing (ALT) is a technique used to obtain reliability data in a compressed time frame, allowing lifetime performance predictions and failure mode analyses to be made prior to equipment installation. By performing ac ...

  2. ACOUSTIC PROPAGATION PATH DETERMINATION

    SBC: PLANNING SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: N/A

    THIS PROPOSAL PRESENTS AN INNOVATIVE APPROACH TO DETERMINING THE PROPAGATION PATH OF ACOUSTIC DATA RECEIVED BY A THIN LINE TOWED ARRAY. WE MAKE USE OF THE LATEST DEVELOPMENTS IN SEAFLOOR ACOUSTIC MODELING CAPABILITY AS WELL AS EMPLOYING THE EMERGING AND POWERFUL TECHNIQUES ASSOCIATED WITH ARTIFICAL NEURAL NETWORKS. THE PROPOSED NEURAL NETWORKS WILL BE DESIGNED TO IDENTIFY THE PATH OF PROPAGATION F ...

  3. Acoustic Towed Array Position Measurement System for Nuclear Submarines

    SBC: DDL Omni Engineering, LLC            Topic: N/A

    DDL OMNI Engineering proposes to design a secure system for the continuous, real time acoustic measurement of towed array position relative to the host submarine. By using focused transmit and receive assemblies, pseudo- random spread broadband signals, and relatively high carrier frequency, the transmission level will be minimized so as to be virtually undetectable by a non-dedicated system ...

  4. Active Suppression of Shipborne Noise in Hull-Mounted Sonar Sensors

    SBC: BARRON ASSOCIATES, INC.            Topic: N/A

    1Hull-mounted sonar sensors are subjected to a number of shipborne noise phenomena due to coupling through their mechanical mounts. Such noise is complex, composed primarily of engine noise, wave induced hull vibrations, and other hydrodynamic pressure-induced noise due to propeller cavitation and flow. The proposed project will developadaptive nonlinear polynomial neural network noise prediction ...

  5. Adaptive Optics for Advanced Laser Systems

    SBC: LSA            Topic: N/A

    We have designed an innovative adaptive-optics system to provide correction for laser beam distortion by large atmospheric turbulences such as in an aircraft boundary-layer. The adaptive-optics design is applicable to laser-based infrared countermeasure systems, laser rangefinders, and laser target designators. Our design is a new approach that specifically address large-scale turbulence in t ...

  6. ADVANCED ARMAMENT CARRIAGE FOR THE MARINE CORPS AH-1W ATTACK HELICOPTER

    SBC: GUIDED SYSTEMS TECHNOLOGIES, INC.            Topic: N/A

    THE U.S. MARINE CORPS HAS A CRITICAL NEED FOR A NEW, STATE-OF-THE-ART SYSTEM FOR ARMAMENT CARRIAGE ON ITS AH-1W ATTACK HELICOPTER. THIS PHASE I EFFORT WILL PERFORM A TRADE/CONCEPTUAL DESIGN STUDY TO SYSTEMATICALLY IDENTIFY THE BEST DESIGN SOLUTION. THE MERITS, COSTS, AND RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH AN INNOVATIVE DESIGN SOLUTION (CONFORMAL WEAPONS PODS) WILL BE COMPARED TO MORE CONSERVATIVE DESIGN SOLUTI ...

  7. Advanced Automatic Test Systems (ATS) Resources

    SBC: Computer Systems Development            Topic: N/A

    Significant savings in system life cycle costs can be realized when common Automated Test Systems (ATS) resources are used to meet both system production and field maintenance needs. Additional cost avoidance and quality gains are the result of transferring unit under test (UUT) design data, "lessons learned" gained during manufacturing in-process and system acceptance (sell-off) testing to the ma ...

  8. ADVANCED DAMAGE MODEL DEVELOPMENT

    SBC: Nkf Engineering, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    THE OBJECTIVE OF THE PROPOSED EFFORT IS TO DEVELOP ADVANCED CAPABILITIES FOR COMPUTER CODES IN PREDICTING THE DAMAGE INFLICTED ON NAVAL TARGETS BY UNDERWATER WARHEADS. THE PROPOSED RESEARCH EFFORT WILL TAKE SOME HIGHLY REGARDED, WELL DOCUMENTED, AND VALIDATED GENERAL PURPOSE CODES AND ADD CAPABILITIES TAILORED TO THE UNDERWATER WARHEAD DYNAMICS PROBLEM AND COMBINE ALL REQUIRED CAPABILITIES INTO ON ...

  9. Advanced Low Frequency High Efficiency Spark Gap Sonar Transducer Development Program

    SBC: Tetra Corporation            Topic: N/A

    1The Navy has a need for compact low frequency sonar sources for a wide range of applications. In particular, there is a need for low frequency high level signals generated from relatively small sonar transducers. This proposal is to develop an advanced form of the spark gap or plasma transducer utilizing recent major advances at Tetra Corporation in low frequency high efficiency high power acoust ...

  10. ADVANCED PROPELLER BLADE SECTIONS

    SBC: Hydrodynamics Research Associa            Topic: N/A

    IT IS PROPOSED TO INVESTIGATE AND DEVELOP INNOVATIVE PROPELLER BLADE SECTION GEOMETRY WHICH WILL RESULT IN IMPROVED ACOUSTIC AND POWERING PERFORMANCE OF SURFACE SHIPS THROUGH THE ATTAINMENT OF HIGHER CAVITATION INCEPTION SPEEDS AND REDUCE BLADE DRAG. THESE SECTIONS ARE CHARACTERIZED BY A BLUNT TRAILING EDGE WITH A SEPARATED, NONCAVITATING WAKE. THE EFFECT OF THE BLUNT TRAILING EDGE, WHEN COUPLED W ...
