EW Enterprise Exploration and Innovation

Abstract

This four-year project, which begins in FY 2016, accelerates the development of innovative technologies to provide countermeasures to new classes of Electronic Warfare (EW) threats enabled by the global proliferation of advanced electronics technologies. New countermeasure capabilities are needed to address threats characterized by significantly expanded spectral and temporal coverage and resolution, increasingly complex and diverse waveforms, and have great agility. Countermeasures are needed for both emitting (e.g., radars and communications) and non-emitting (e.g., passive radars and sensors and weapon seekers) threat systems. Countermeasures are also needed to guarantee assured command and control and robust battle management capabilities in the face of advanced persistent electronic attacks by technologically advanced adversaries. Five efforts will be initiated in FY 2016 to address EW Enterprise Exploration and Innovation: Advanced Airborne Countermeasures Development, Advanced Defensive Countermeasures Development, Non-Kinetic Battle Management and Visualization Technology Development, Advanced EW and EW/Cyber Exploration/Development, and Ultra Wideband Receiver Development.
