Measurement and Signature Intelligence Technologies (MASINT) for clandestine tagging, tracking, and locating (TTL)
Abstract
This effort matures and demonstrates MASINT technologies capable of detecting, tracking, and/or identifying human activities and/or infrastructures. The emphasis is to identify appropriate technical approaches, demonstrate embedded processing, and mature algorithms for multi-mode fusion of sensor data. Candidate technologies include: fiber optic seismic/magnetic technologies (highly sensitive for detection of walking personnel with/without weapons and/or tunneling detection); air deployable (air droppable) networked sensor system for a jungle environment (integration of seismic/acoustic sensor with jungle canopy relay); human infrastructure detection technologies (algorithms, sensors, etc); radio frequency MASINT detector, ultra-light multi-target indicator radar for unattended ground sensors and unmanned air vehicles. Work accomplished under PE 0602120A/project H16 compliments this effort.
