Noncooperative Identification Subsystems

Abstract

Non-cooperative CID employs a number of sensing technologies and signal processing techniques. The observations may be compared to a database of known objects to identify surface or air threats from air platforms. These technologies include: (1) Laser Vision, an Electro-Optical/Infrared (EO/IR) imaging system that significantly increases ID ranges; (2) Hydra Vision, a balanced (robust) amalgamation of sensor data from multiple sources to provide warfighters with higher confidence CID results on surface or air targets potentially including fusion with intelligence sources, identification of non-traditional targets, fusion to counter camouflage, concealment and deception (CCD), and multi-phenomenology features for sustainable databases; (3) Compact AiTR (Aided Target Recognition) and Sustainable Environments (CASE), a CID approach that focuses on tailoring algorithms to utilize smaller, more efficient databases that are faster and less expensive to generate and maintain; (4) Passive RF ID Environment (PRIDE), a program to develop passive RF target ID capability for denied access environment utilizing passive RF and EW information with potential non-traditional ISR capabilities; (5) Radio ID (RID) will develop methods for utilizing advances in digital radio technologies such as software defined radios, to provide low cost ID solutions to enhance Combat ID, improve aircrew situational awareness and assist in fratricide prevention with military and civil air platforms, potentially fusing non-cooperative techniques and cooperative technologies; and (6) Enhanced Combat ID (ECID), a program under Studies to develop a robust ability to quantitatively evaluate promising CID technologies using enhanced modeling and simulation (M&S) capabilities. Activities also include studies and analysis to support both current program planning and execution and future program planning. In FY19 project 642599 (Cooperative ID) was erroneously zeroed out. A correction will be made during the execution year to reflect the following: project 642599 (Cooperative ID) - $1.53M; project 642597 (Non-Cooperative ID) - $16.664M.
