Estimator - design optimization of coherent mimo radar networks enabled by photonics

The Department of the Navy Secretary of the Navy Office of Naval Research awarded a $108,000 Project Grant to Consorzio Nazionale Interuniversitario Per LE Telecomunicazioni under the Basic and Applied Scientific Research program. The grant supports research from January 11, 2021 to February 28, 2022 to design optimization of coherent MIMO radar networks enabled by photonics. The Basic and Applied Scientific Research program aims to support and stimulate basic and applied research and technology at educational institutions, non-profits and other research organizations, with potential to improve naval operations and train and motivate future scientists and engineers. The grant funding will allow Consorzio Nazionale Interuniversitario Per LE Telecomunicazioni to conduct research that could lead to superior radar network design using photonics to enhance naval capabilities.
