*Tactical Remote Sensor System (TRSS): Product Development - Urban Sensor Systems (USS)
Abstract
Tactical Remote Sensor Systems (TRSS) will provide all weather direction, location determination, targeting, and tactical indications and warning of enemy activity in the Marine Air-Ground Task Force (MAGTF) Commander's Area of Interest. The TRSS is an equipment suite consisting of three primary sub-systems: Unattended Ground Sensors (UGS); Relay Systems; and monitoring systems. The sensor systems include seismic/acoustic sensors, electro-magnetic sensors, and infrared (passive) sensors. The relay systems include SATCOM retransmission systems. The monitoring system includes the Sensor Monitoring imaging sensors group and hand-held monitors (HHM). The composition of the three sub-systems are comprised of several individual components. As the Product Improvement Program proceeds, upgrading of individual components will occur on an as needed basis. Overseas Contingency Operations (OCO) funding of $650K for FY12 is required for developing critical upgrades to TRSS systems; the software development improves the TRSS sensor management software to integrate TRSS sensor systems with the theater-provided-equipment/sensor systems being used in OEF. The modifications developed, and integrated into systems used in theater, with the OCO funds will directly support the Marine Forces operations and maintain the fast-paced technology evolution.
