UxS Autonomy, C2

Abstract

The Autonomy and Command and Control (C2) portion of this project funds efforts to develop common standards, interfaces, and systems to support cross-domain (Surface and Sub-Surface, Aviation and Ground) applications. These efforts include advanced development, prototyping and demonstrations to accelerate the design and development of system commonality and interoperability for the cross-domain requirements of the Navy. Autonomy development efforts will demonstrate scalable, adaptable and interoperable warfighting capabilities across various unmanned systems. The advanced development emphasis will encourage innovation and enable rapid integration of UxS capabilities across domains while common standards, interfaces, and systems development occurs in parallel. Autonomy and C2 architectures and interface definitions will be incorporated into near-term and future UUV requests for proposals (RFP) to drive contractor development efforts. The Precision Navigation portion of this project seeks to study and develop innovative undersea navigation capabilities for UUVs. In summary, coordinated autonomy and C2 efforts, coupled with precision navigation solutions, will define, develop and demonstrate capability that advances new technology, and the hardware and software of control systems that will be used to operate multiple and dissimilar Naval UxSs.
