Precision Measurement Technology for Contested Environments

Abstract

This effort will develop technologies that will enable precise and assured PNT in GPS-denied environments for extended durations. This research will improve the accuracy while also focusing on size, weight, power, cost (SWAP-C) of current IMUs to advance capability at the tactical edge to include sUAS and dismounts. This effort will address the design, fabrication, and assessment of novel micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) sensor designs and materials and the integration of multiple sensor modalities with the IMUs using sensor fusion and perception techniques to reduce drift and increase positional accuracy. Research will also include the ability to transmit jam-resistant precision position, navigation, and timing signals via electro-optical and/or RF transmission methods.
