Integrated Multi-Domain Radar Demonstration

Abstract

The objective of the IMRD program is to apply artificial intelligence techniques to the adaptive control of a state-of-the-art radar environment. The radar operates in the C-Band and is located within the Rome Laboratory Surveillance Facility (RLSF), Building 106, Griffiss Air Force Base (GAFB). The artificial intelligence is embedded in an adaptive control expert system which is written in Prolog. This system identifies sources of interference in each antenna beam position of the surveillance region and responds with the appropriate adaptive controls to maximize the probability of target detection consistent with operator-specified tactical objectives. In addition, the system has the following features: (1) Radar inputs provided by a real, as opposed to a simulated, radar. (2) Real-time operation with one scan response time of ten seconds or less. (3) Modular design for rulebase and system evolution. (4) Extensive parameterization for different radar configurations and operational specifications. (5) Control of a large number of radar parameters. The report includes IMRD organization, parameterization options for configuring it to different environments, the expert system software development, and results.
