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 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. This project develops tools and plug-ins that enhance mission and engagement models, provide predictive risk analysis for deployment of Directed Energy systems, and analyzes systems for use in the Department of Defense. This project develops tools and analysis techniques to model and demonstrate the use of fielded protection on Airman performance, and informs developers of design specifications to optimize design of novel weapon systems. In FY 2021, the entirety of Project 635323, Directed Energy Bioeffects Parameters, will be transferred to PE 0603030F, AF Foundational Development/Demos, Project 635323, Directed Energy Bioeffects Parameters, as part of the Air Force RDT&E BA 03 PE consolidation in order to realign technology areas to better support the National Defense Strategy, Air Force Future Operating Concept and Air Force Science and Technology Strategy, April 2019. The Project and associated efforts will continue to be executed by the Air Force Research Laboratory Airman Systems Technology Directorate located in Joint Base San Antonio - Fort Sam Houston, Texas. This is an administrative realignment for consolidation, and not a new start.
