Battlefield Acoustic Sensing, Multimodal Sensing, and Networked Sensing for Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) Applications

Abstract

In an ongoing effort to reduce the size, weight, and power of current acoustic localization systems, the Task Group (SET-189 RTG) on Battlefield Acoustic Sensing, Multimodal Sensing, and Networked Sensing for Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) Applications evaluated the feasibility of replacing the pressure sensor microphone with that of a particle velocity sensor. The particular sensor of interest in this research was that of the Acoustic Multi-Mission Sensor (AMMS) developed by Microflown AVISA. This work addresses sensor capabilities and limitations both in the open field and more complex operational environments as they relate to small-arms fire (SAF).
