Noncooperative Identification Subsystems
Abstract
Non-cooperative CID employs a number of sensing technologies and signal processing techniques. The observations are compared to a database to identify battlespace entities. 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, fusion to counter camouflage, concealment and deception (CCD), and multi-phenomenology features for sustainable databases; (3) Compact Aided Target Recognition (AiTR) and Sustainable Environments (CASE), a CID approach that focuses on tailoring algorithms to use smaller, more efficient databases that are faster and less expensive to generate and maintain; (4) Passive Radio Frequency (RF) ID Environment (PRIDE), a program to develop passive RF target ID capability for denied access environment using passive RF and electronic warfare (EW) information; (5) Radio ID (RID). a program to develop methods for using advances in digital radio technologies such as software defined radios to provide low cost ID solutions to enhance CID, improve aircrew situational awareness and assist in fratricide prevention with military and civil air platforms, potentially fusing non-cooperative techniques and cooperative technologies; (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; and (7) Kill-chain Weapon Integrated CID (KWIC), a program that seeks to modify Air to Ground sensors to provide better situational and combat identification of target area. In FY21 our non-cooperative goals will be to complete the first transition of a feature-level fusion ATR capability for air targets onto F-16 AESA aircraft under Air to Air Hydravision, providing a substantial improvement in CID performance at long range. This effort will lead the way for other platforms to integrate this capability. AAHV will also transition a major improvement in air target CID to the F-15E AESA aircraft. CASE will be in the final demonstration phase of a significant ground target CID capability that will transition to F-15E AESA and F/A-18 AESA the following year. VAMP and 3DTO will both be preparing to transition CID capability to Litening in FY21. FY21 will see the initiation of three major programs, to include Integrated Determination of ID (ID2) - using advances associated with Joint Multisensor Advanced CID (JMAC) to provide feature-level fusion to ground target ID; Integrated Combat ID with EW (ICE), pulling EW-specific features into feature-level fusion; and Kill Chain Weapons Integrated CID (KWIC), using information from launched weapons through a back link to provide CID from within the hot battlespace. Activities also include studies and analysis to support both current program planning and execution and future program planning. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver Combat Identification technologies. The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program elements 0605826F, 0605827F, 0605828F, 0605829F, 0605830F, 0605831F, 0605832F, and 0605898F.
