Environmental Impacts on Sensor Performance (Previously titled - Near Surface Effects)

Abstract

This effort investigates, designs, and creates physics-based, multiscale numerical models of the geo-environment and synthetic environments representing geo-environment impacts on various sensor modalities and systems. These enable such things as development of sensors and sensor algorithms for object or target detection, for sensor-target pairing, and for intelligent autonomous navigation and tactical behaviors in unmanned ground systems. This effort further investigates, designs, and creates non-line-of-site and beyond- line-of-sight sensing and communications for sensors and disadvantaged users in remote areas, including optimizing coupling of sensors to soil for understanding surface and subsurface activities. This effort supports persistent surveillance and detection capabilities.
