About this award
The Air Force Research Laboratory awarded an STTR Phase II contract valued at $749,980 to Enig Associates, Inc. (doing business as Bethesda Press) on August 4, 2021, for the development of a compact plasma VLF antenna designed to enable two-way communication in RF-denied environments. This award supports the Air Force's Assured Communications Program and represents a small business set-aside contract. The work is being performed in Potomac, Maryland, with an ultimate completion date of May 8, 2024. As a firm fixed-price purchase order, the contract tasks Enig Associates with advancing its plasma antenna technology through research, design, integration, and testing activities to transition this capability into larger defense systems.
Enig Associates is a small scientific and engineering firm with significant expertise in plasma physics and antenna design, having previously received multiple SBIR and STTR awards from the Air Force Research Laboratory, Army Research Laboratory, and DARPA. The company specializes in providing research, prototype development, and engineering services focused on compact plasma antennas for communications applications, among other defense-relevant technologies. This Phase II effort builds upon earlier Phase I research and represents the continuation of Enig's work to mature plasma-based antenna solutions that would enable critical communications capabilities in contested electromagnetic environments where traditional RF systems may be degraded or jammed.
