The objective of this Phase I program is to demonstrate the technical feasibility of functional materials that can be applied by a simple print-and-heat process at temperatures below 400 C to create electronic components on a variety of substrates. The technology to be demonstrated is an extension of the existing PARMOD process from metallic conductors to resistors, capacitors and inductors based ...

A lightweight, low-cost radar for detecting low-altitude airborne targets from a lighter-than-air airborne platform is proposed. The sensor offers an all-weather, all-visibility-conditions MTI and tracking capability for situation awareness and the possible activation and guidance of counter measures. A special proprietary microstrip phased array antenna concept coupled with a novel radar config ...

Princeton Electronic systems (PES) proposes to develop a high performance telemaintenance system for DoD logistics needs. The proposed system can be used for collaborative troubleshooting and maintenance of the fielded equipment by using internet as the primary communication medium. It will enable instant access of experts anywhere in the world for solving difficult field maintenance problems. ...

We propose to deliver a near infrared focal plane array (NIR-FPA) with spectral discrimination optics over each pixel. The innovation is a 16-element 1.0 - 2.5 um InGaAs FPA mated with a 16-wavelength dielectric stack filter array and silicon readout multiplexer. The hybrid assembly will be mounted on a thermoelectric cooler into a small TO-8 package for high sensitivity (D*>10 12cm(Hz)1/2 /W) o ...
