Chemical Detection Systems Modeling, Simulation, and Analysis Environment

Abstract

Accurate modeling and simulation of sensors is necessary to develop, test, and evaluate effective detection systems and decision support systems. The research performed in this Phase II SBlR contract developed a generalized architecture, framework, and methodology for the modeling and simulation of chemical and biological (CB) detectors. The software environment integrates atmospheric models, detector models, uncertainty measures, and a variety of time-synchronization and model composition capabilities. This framework provides distributed access to models and simulations. Simulation components were developed for standoff and point detectors, including the most complete dynamic model of the Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) chemical sensor to date. The data resulting from the simulations enabled analysis of various detector capabilities and tradeoffs using multiple metrics.
