- Description
- Last year, the first Large Tactical Sensor Networks (LTSN) BAA 06-015 was issued with seven product areas. To continue the development of new technologies under this program, this second BAA having five product areas will highlight specific technologies for development. The goal of the Large Tactical Sensor Networks program is to develop and demonstrate measurable advances to enable sensor networks of unmanned vehicles and unattended ground sensors to rapidly respond to small unit intelligence requirements, automatically sense the tactical environment and perform automated translation, fusion, and dissemination of sensor data into actionable intelligence. This will be accomplished through technology development and algorithms that can directly support expeditionary warfighting forces in the Global War on Terrorism (GWOT). Large Tactical Sensor Networks are envisioned to operate in a net centric environment providing support to expeditionary forces to carry out the warfighting philosophies of the Marine Corps , Special Operations, and the Naval Expeditionary Combat Command (NECC). ONR seeks both to automate processes that provide small tactical units with an automated understanding of relationships among battlespace objects and events and to automate management of multiple hypotheses about the intent of these objects and groupings. Data analysis and fusion algorithms resulting from this research will be integrated into emerging net-centric Navy and Marine Corps Command & Control and Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C2 and ISR) acquisition programs and Distributed Common Ground System (DCGS) through a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). Sensor network management and human interface technologies will also be designed to be integrated with relevant naval unmanned vehicle systems such as the Marine Corps Tier II UAV.
