INFORMATION BRIEFING TO INDUSTRY ON ADVANCED CONCEPTS FOR SURVEILLANCE POC M. Sheehan, 315-330-4484. The Directorate of Surveillance and Photonics in the Air Force Rome Laboratory is presenting a briefing to industry at 1000 hours on 27 April 95 in the Main Auditorium at 26 Electronic Parkway, Griffiss AFB New York, on concepts for enhancing long range detection of advance targets. In one approach to accomplishing modern wide area surveillance mission requirements, a concept in which a high flying unmanned airborne platform incorporating a large receive only array, signal/data processing and telecommunications equipment, is deployed over the battle area. This sensor utilizes the illumination from ground based and airborne wide area surveillance and tracks radars deployed over friendly territory in the vicinity of the (potential) battle area, to detect and track hostile and friendly targets throughout the field of view. The presentation will include a detailed description of this and other advanced concepts, technical requirements, potential programs, theoretical analysis and experimental results to date. Rome Laboratory is also interested in alternative approaches for achieving affordable enhanced long range detection of advance targets. A secret clearance is required to attend this briefing. Interested parties should send a visit request to RL/OC-1 SECURITY (RE: 27 April 95 BASS Briefing), 26 Electronic Pky., Griffiss AFB NY 13441-4514, FAX: (315) 330-7899, VOICE: (315) 330-4517.
