Tag, Track, and Locate Small Satellites

Abstract

This effort matures and demonstrates technologies required for smaller, warfighter-responsive sensor and communication Low Earth Orbit small satellite constellations. Work will augment, improve, exploit and optimize existing commercial and DoD technologies and networks. Work supports the Army Modernization Priorities. This effort will fund research and validate software, hardware, and algorithms used to enable space-based capabilities in support of the Army?s Modernization Priorities. This effort will also investigate the maturity and feasibility of commercial advances and opportunities in small satellite constellation and payload management for apply to future Army concepts. The work cited is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering Science and Technology (S&T) priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. This work is performed by the Army Space and Missile Defense Command/Army Forces Strategic Command (SMDC/ARSTRAT) in Huntsville, AL.
