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. Continuous Apertures

    SBC: ASTRON WIRELESS TECHNOLIGIES, INC.            Topic: N/A

    The program objective is to develop novel designs, techniques, and structures to synthesize apertures capable of efficient operation over broad frequency ranges and functions. Conventional apertures are narrowly focused, application specific, and basically single point design. To decrease the cost of antennas, a more universal building block design is required. It would provide a significantly ...

  2. Numerical Design of New RF Photonic Devices

    SBC: Autometric Inc.            Topic: N/A

    Controlling millimeter radio frequency waves with optical signals is a requirement for military communications and radar systems. The advances in the past decade have led to photonic sensors and switches that utilize light beams interacting with RF devices. New capabilities extending to higher frequencies and working over multiple frequency bands are possible using a combination of nonlinear op ...

  3. Shaped Virtual Reflector Antenna Synthesis

    SBC: Autometric Inc.            Topic: N/A

    In spite of the fact that powerful desktop computers are readily available, the mechanics of antenna design has changed very little as a result. Computers are being used, but only as high speed calculators to solve models that were developed 30 years ago. Two new developments in electromagnetics have been recently published. The first is a general antenna pattern synthesis algorithm developed by ...

  4. Reinforcement Learning for Avionics Applications

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

    Simulation-based optimization techniques that enlist reinforcement learning controllers are ideally suited for complex and multi-objective optimization problems that cannot be solved easily using traditional techniques, especially when the stochastic natures or the environment, resources, and external interactive entities are taken into account. Reinforcement learning based on incremental value i ...

  5. Digital Wideband Electromagnetic Sensor

    SBC: CENTER FOR REMOTE SENSING, INC.            Topic: N/A

    Improved magnetic and electromagnetic sensors covering a wide range of frequencies, 0 to 10kHz, and with extremely high sensitivity are proposed for broad area detection and characterization of underground targets. The sensors can be used for a variety of applications and for different e.m. sources. They can be configured as gradiometers, as vector or scaler sensors and can be used as internette ...

  6. Innovative Large Caliber Gun for Naval Gun Fire Support

    SBC: Central Technology, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    The objective of this project is to design a new large caliber naval gun to fit in a relatively small volume within a ship and yet be capable of firing ranges considerably greater than are presently available from equal caliber guns and ammunition. This gun will have a very short recoil whose greater recoil forces will be passed directly to major load bearing structure near the ship's ke ...

  7. A Hybrid Analysis of Task and Team Performance in the CIC

    SBC: COGNITIVE TECHNOLOGIES, INC.            Topic: N/A

    CTI and its subcontractors, BDM's Defense Enterprise Integration Team and Sonalysts, Inc., propose to apply a hybrid task analysis methodology to model critical functions in the CIC and derive measures of performance by individuals and teams. The approach is a hybrid in that it joins cognitive analysis techniques with methods typically used to in business re-engineering studies. In addition, it in ...

  8. Staff Training in Information Management for Force XXI

    SBC: COGNITIVE TECHNOLOGIES, INC.            Topic: N/A

    Recent cognitive research indicates that military teams operate effectively in high-stress, information-rich environments when they 1) share mental models of the battlefield situation and the team; 2) critique their situation model to develop clear goals for information retrieval; 3) effectively communicate information needs to others; and 4) anticipate and counteract information overload. We pro ...

  9. Interactions of Training and Decision Support: Measuring the Benefits in Trust, Situation Awareness, and Workload

    SBC: COGNITIVE TECHNOLOGIES, INC.            Topic: N/A

    Inappropriate trust of automation can lead to suboptimal performance, in which the respective capabilities of humans and computers are not effectively exploited. In some cases, over- or under-reliance can lead to catastrophe. The primary objectives of the proposed Phase I work are (1) to develop a systematic general framework for training users of decision aids, with particular attention to the ...

  10. Retrieval Algorithms for Atmospheric Data Assimilation

    SBC: COMPUTATIONAL PHYSICS, INC.            Topic: N/A

    We propose to develop algorithms which can be used to assimilate separate satellite data sets of important geophysical parameters into global, gridded data sets. The data assimilation program will be cast as a retrieval problem in which the true, instrument independent global distribution is retrieved from the combined satellite data set. This problem will be solved using the method of optima ...
