Directed Energy Bioeffects Parameters

Abstract

This project develops, demonstrates, and transitions technologies to predict, evaluate, and mitigate the effects of directed energy on personnel and mission performance, and exploits the offensive capabilities of directed energy systems. This project also develops the human components of the guidelines for testing, deployment, and protection from high power microwave and high energy laser systems and uses this information to enhance the effectiveness of these weapon systems in air, space, and cyber operations. The optical radiation bioeffects thrust develops and demonstrates technologies that counter optical threats, while exploiting optical systems for non-lethal applications. The radio frequency (RF) radiation bioeffects thrust develops and demonstrates technologies to assess RF bioeffects and collateral hazards from high power RF directed energy systems.
