Abstract

Irvine Sensors Corporation (ISC) together with the University of Southern California (USC) propose to build a prototype sensor environment (Figure 1) using multiple SCOUT modules. A SCOUT Module is a very compact miniature hardware platform consisting of a reconfigurable processing support for multi-antenna structure (Multiple input multiple output - MIMO) using multi-carrier schemes (Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing - OFDM) as the physical layer (RF). SCOUT’s kernel design methodology allows for energy efficient real-time reconfiguration. A variety of operational scenarios can be supportive in a robust and covert sensitive environment. SCOUT modules can be used by AFRL on programs such as CITE and ICG. SCOUT modules can be tailored into commercial products for applications such as environmental monitoring and vehicle communications.
