Antenna and Hardware Technologies
Abstract
This effort investigates low cost, power efficient, conformal and directional antenna technologies for terrestrial, airborne, and tactical SATCOM ground terminals to enable them to operate OTM over multiple frequency bands, and further investigates armor embedded antenna and distributed array technologies. Together these efforts will improve ground forces electronic protection, increase signal power and range and provide greater connectivity for both mounted and dismounted forces. This effort also provides new technology capabilities to lower the SWAP and cost of networking systems deployed on Army platforms through hardware and software convergence. Work being accomplished under PE 0602270A/project 906, PE 0603008A/project TR1, PE 0603270A/project K15 and PE 0603794A/project EL4 complements this effort.
