Ft. Hood iScout to Persistent Ground Surveillance System (PGSS) Cueing Demonstration

Abstract

The 504th Battlefield Surveillance Brigade (BfSB) certification exercise (CERTEX) was held at Ft. Hood, TX, February 28 to March 11, 2011, in preparation for their deployment to theater. At the request of Don Nibblett and the Army G-2 office, the U.S. Army Research Laboratory (ARL) was asked to conduct training classes for Soldiers using iScout sensors, as well as demonstrate the "slew to cue" capability of the Persistent Ground Surveillance System (PGSS) using iScout sensors as detection triggers. This memorandum report chronicles the technical aspects and challenges of the successful exercise at Ft. Hood and provides recommendations for future testing.
