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. High Performance Actuators for Solid Propulsion Control Systems

    SBC: ELECTRIC DRIVETRAIN TECHNOLOGIES LLC            Topic: MDA16010

    The US Missile Defense Agency is seeking to develop innovative architectures and/or high temperature electronics for increasing the temperature capability of actuators used with proportionally controlled valves/thrusters. Solid propellant exhaust gases are commonly 2,000-4,000F while the actuator to valve/thruster interface commonly must be limited to less than 200-300F. This relatively low temp ...

  2. Reduction in Variability in Liquid Locking Compound Applications.

    SBC: Systems & Materials Research Corporation            Topic: MDA16014

    Liquid locking compounds (LLCs) are often applied to fasteners in missile applications to augment preload in resistance to vibration-induced loosening. The amount of LLC needed to reach a specified locking torque varies greatly depending on the fastening system. There is a need to apply LLCs to fastening systems consistently and with known adhesion characteristics to provide OEMs with a repeatable ...

  3. Aft Looking Spectrometer for Plume Characterization and Waking on Re-entry

    SBC: NANOHMICS INC            Topic: MDA16016

    We propose a hyperspectral imager for aft-looking wake and plume characterization. The payload is designed to operate with existing COTS components and has no moving parts. The high spectral resolution will provide atomic and molecular emission lines, and the spatial resolution will produce a spatial map of these excitations.

  4. Programmable Signal Generator Module

    SBC: ELECTRIC DRIVETRAIN TECHNOLOGIES LLC            Topic: MDA16023

    The Department of Defenses (DoD) need for smaller and more efficient electronic beacon systems is growing due to smaller platforms that may not have the space or power delivery systems for all electronic items. There is also a need for beacons to operate in specific frequencies with the added flexibility to have each beacon generate a unique signal. The proposed Programmable Signal Generator Mod ...

  5. Intuitive User Interface Technology Evaluation for Optimal BMDS Performance

    SBC: KNOWLEDGE BASED SYSTEMS INC            Topic: MDA15006

    The adoption of Human-Machine Interface (HMI) technologies for BMDS planning, test and evaluation, operations, and mission control must be undertaken in a carefully planned manner. Lacking are methods to test the effectiveness of user interface technologies for improved situation awareness and decision-making ability. Knowledge Based Systems, Inc.’s (KBSI) Intuitive User Interface Technolog ...

  6. Solid State High Power Amplifier for Communications

    SBC: ENGIN-IC INC            Topic: MDA15023

    In the Phase 1 program, ENGIN-IC studied the key technologies to develop a Solid State Power Amplifier (SSPA) to replace the Klystron Tube currently used for the Ground-based Midcourse Defense Element of the Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS). ENGIN-IC demonstrated a GaN Power amplifier MMIC design offering greater than 40-W saturated power with more than 45% efficiency, a 160-W sub module w ...

  7. Multi-Object Deployment System (MODS)

    SBC: LOADPATH, LLC            Topic: MDA15018

    Ballistic missile threats include the potential for complex target scenes including countermeasures and debris in addition to lethal objects. In order to defend against this threat, the Ballistics Missile Defense System (BMDS) has been developed to intercept the targets. The construct of using multiple interceptors on a single target is both costly and taxing on the BMDS command control. However, ...

  8. Novel nanostructure anode and cathode for new class of high energy and power thermal batteries

    SBC: BINERGY SCIENTIFIC, INC.            Topic: MDA15021

    Thermal batteries are single discharge reserve batteries that provide very long shelf life, minimal self-discharge, wide storage temperature range, fast thermal activation under power demand, and wide range of operating and storage temperature conditions. We are proposing development and optimization of novel anode and cathode materials and demonstration of advanced thermal batteries (TB) that sig ...

  9. Fully Integrated Millimeter RF Array Using a Carbon Nanotube Cathode

    SBC: APPLIED NANOTECH, INC.            Topic: N/A

    The innovation proposed here is the use of carbon nanotube (CNT) field emission cathodes incorporated into a fully integrated array of RF sources. The goal is to design, fabricate and demonstrate an integrated array of sources for RF generation in theregion of 10 GHz. By integrating the sources together in one device, we can achieve higher levels of redundancy and durability, lower the manufactu ...

  10. A Compact, Battery-Powered RF Generator for UAV Payloads

    SBC: Applied Physical Electronics, L.C.            Topic: N/A

    Applied Physical Electronics, L. C. (APELC) offers a portable, battery-powered RF generator well suited for UAV payloads, laboratory or field use. This proposed system would build on the current success of APELC's current Phase II efforts, in which largerimpulse generators are being developed. This proposed system will incorporate those successes to generate an impulse of microwave energy, at ver ...
