MPL's Research Program in Navy Related Technologies
Abstract
Under these contracts, MPL was engaged in a wide variety of Navy related activities which are grouped/categorized as follows: (1) Augmented Exploratory Research and Development: Expansion or acceleration of ongoing efforts, principally in underwater acoustics, signal processing, hydrophone arrays. Also, in optics with the folding of Visibility Laboratory, activities within MPL, enhanced Deep Tow capabilities. (2) Support of Research and Development: FLIP/ORB support and stable platform related issues. (3) Support of MPL Sponsor related needs: Operating CNR tower, Equipping of USS DOLPHIN with research gear, Surface Effect Ship (SES), SUBDEVGRPONE, modifications of existing equipment or equipment orders for MPL or MPL sponsor related needs (i. e., NAVOCEANO, NAVAIR). (4) Special Projects: Quick response MPL support of NAVY mission related needs. This would be utilizing MPL assets such as Deep Tow to meet unforseen requirements, and (5) Exploratory and Advisory: Directly funded participation of MPL scientific, engineering, and other personnel in various Navy panels and committees, etc. This is for participation beyond the normal Exploratory and Advisory in connection with the overall MPL program.
