About this award

This is a $374,956.57 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of Southern California (USC) Department of Contracts and Grants Division, doing business as USC. The grant is for research on Distributed Space Missions (DSMS), which can increase measurement samples over multiple, spatio-temporal vantage points. The research aims to enable smaller spacecraft to carry advanced imaging and radar payloads despite power and data downlink constraints. This grant is not associated with a set-aside program. USC is a leading private research university with a long history of federal contract and grant awards across a wide range of disciplines, including space exploration, engineering, computer science, and biomedical research. The university frequently collaborates with other academic institutions, national labs, and industry partners on large federal projects.

Description

Distributed space missions (dsms) can increase measurement samples over multiple, spatio-temporal vantage points. Smaller spacecraft can now carry imager/radar payloads, even if constrained by power and data downlink.
