Two-Phase Ammonia Pump for Mono-Propellant Warm Gas Pressurization
SBC: BUSEK CO., INC. Topic: AF083111ABSTRACT: An integrated warm gas pressurization of the main and ACS propulsion system offers simpler, more efficient propellant management than existing designs. The most operationally versatile system is based on a unique pump that forces liquid through a gasifier thus creating both the pressurant gas and warm gas for ACS thrusters. All components of such a system are COTS with the exception o ...

Tunable LIDAR Receiver
SBC: PHYSICAL SCIENCES INC. Topic: N/APhysical Sciences Inc. (PSI) proposes to develop a novel, hand-held, IR illuminator with the capability of producing beams of variable divergence angles. We offer two complementary approaches that will be thoroughly tested in Phase I. One approach is based upon a novel reflective optic that transforms non-uniform light beams into a highly uniform beam (>90% uniform). This approach is based upon ...

tightly Coupled GPS-INS Laboratory Test Capability
SBC: DBC COMMUNICATIONS, INC. Topic: N/AAn architecture is proposed for testing tightly-integrated GPS-inertial navigation systems in a laboratory enviroment. The architecture takes advantage of existing test equipment and provides for integration with avionics systems test beds such as the Navigation Test and Evaluation Laboratory (NavTEL) at the Air Force Central Inertial Guidance Test Facility (CIGTF). Certain specific sub-systems, ...

Thin, Flexible, Quantum-Structured Solar Cells
SBC: Magnolia Solar Inc. Topic: AF093080ABSTRACT: The epitaxial liftoff of multi-junction structures provides a means to build photovoltaic devices that are flexible, light weight, and highly efficient. However, current approaches to increasing the AM0 efficiency of multi-junction structures are reaching practical limitations due to the complexity of the device design. The objective of this Phase II SBIR program is to develop innovat ...

The Marine Debris and Small Object Mapping (DSOM) Radar System)
SBC: REMOTE SENSING SOLUTIONS, INC. Topic: 824DThe DSOM system realized in a Phase II effort will provide a modular, compact and reconfigurable system with the ability to provide unique and new information about the scene of interest (e.g. temporal and height information) when compared with traditional SAR sensors. When compared with other imaging technologies, DSOM has the important advantages of being operable through cloud cover and at nigh ...

TERMINAL AREA CONFLICT ESTIMATION SYSTEM(TRACES)
SBC: BIHRLE APPLIED RESEARCH INC Topic: AF161065With the sometimes-complex airspace surrounding airports, commonly called the terminal airspace (TA), the dense traffic and dynamic nature of aircraft movements, current sense and avoidance techniques and technologies begin to breakdown.As such unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) then require additional operator workload to navigate through, around and into this TA. Bihrle Applied Research intends to ...

Target Tracking via Deep Learning
SBC: Systems & Technology Research LLC Topic: AF17AT027To address the challenge of long-term tracking, through extended occlusions and significant appearance changes, we propose to develop DC-CAT, a Deep Convolutional neural network (CNN) based Confuser-Aware high value target (HVT) Tracker.The DC-CAT system will combine a state-of-the-art CNN-based adaptive HVT tracker with a CNN-based pre-trained generic target detector, in a deep-feature-aided mult ...

Targeted Electrospray Performance for High Efficiency and Scalability
SBC: BUSEK CO., INC. Topic: AF162009Electrospray thrusters are superior to plasma based electric propulsion with respect to thrust efficiency and thrust to power ratios (T/P), with difficulties predominantly being scaling to high power applications. Specifically, Busek contends that such applications require more conventional propellant delivery mechanisms, which include latching and proportional flow control valves to manage the l ...
