TACTICAL SPACE RESEARCH

Abstract

This project researches and evaluates technologies for space-based, high altitude, and cyberspace applications for Army tactical ground forces. Applied research efforts include the design and development of sensors and electronic components, communications, signal and information processing, target acquisition, position/navigation, and threat warning within space and high altitude environments as well as the design and development of technologies and analytical tools for cyber risk assessment and mitigation in acquisition systems. The applied research and technology evaluations conducted under this Project leverage other DoD space science and technology applications to support Army space force enhancement and cooperative satellite payload development. This project supports Army science and technology efforts in the Command, Control, and Communications (C3) portfolio. Work in this project complements and is fully coordinated with PE 0603006A (Space Applications Technology). The cited work is consistent with the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering science and technology priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Work in this project is performed by the US Army Space and Missile Defense Command (SMDC) in Huntsville, AL.
