Precision Location and Identification (PLAID)
Abstract
The AN/ALR-69A Radar Warning Receiver (RWR) is an evolutionary development program consisting of a core digital receiver/processor with growth increments. The core ALR-69A program objectives are to improve identification of threat type, detect threat signals while outside of the threat envelope, and operate in a dense signal environment. Evolutionary growth spirals include single and multi-ship Precision Geolocation (PG) as well as Specific Emitter Identification (SEI). The underlying technologies and algorithms enabling PG and SEI are often collectively referred to as Precision Location and Identification (PLAID). ALR-69A development is currently focused on a replacement RWR for AFSOC and AMC C-130 aircraft. The ALR-69A is also under consideration by AFSOC, AMC and ACC for integration and installation in other mission design series aircraft. This program is in budget activity 5 - System Development and Demonstration of common EW systems to meet user requirements.
