Ouija

Abstract

The goal of the Ouija program is to quantify the High Frequency (HF) noise environment in space and improve the characterization of the ionosphere in support of warfighter capabilities. Building upon technologies developed in the Small Satellite Sensors program, previously budgeted in PE 0603767E/Project SEN-02, Ouija intends to make ionospheric measurements of unprecedented granularity using ground equipment and satellites in very low earth orbit (VLEO) to improve ionospheric models and better predict long-range HF propagation. Ouija technology will result in improved performance and characterization of radars and communication systems that operate in the HF band. Technology developed under this program will transition to the Services.
