Combat ID Database Development

Abstract

The Database Initiative (DBI) is a project, under the Combat Identification (CID) portfolio, designed to remove the "hard-coded” static ID parameters from the host platform's sensor and replace them with parameterized values that are dynamic. The DBI project primarily consists of four efforts: a.) determining the requisite ID parameters for CID, b) designing and developing a database to contain the CID parameters identified in Task a, c) developing techniques to generate the requisite parameters, and d) provide CID parameters developed from measured or modeled data. This project is projected to begin in early FY-20 therefore no funds have been required/requested previously. The FY-20 objectives are: a.) determine the requisite CID features for HRR and NCTR and b) specify the requirements for initial database design, and finally c) collect initial sample data to populate the database for developmental test/debug. The benefit of using Mission Definable parameters is that they are dynamically developed and can be added, edited, or removed by preflight Mission Planning software such as the Joint Mission Planning System (JMPS). Current CID parameters for existing techniques, i.e. NCTR, are being developed faster than host platform OFPs. This leads to implementation lags as great as four years. By removing the "hard-coded” parameters from the sensors and enabling loading dynamic values via mission planning, the lag time could be reduced to days.
