STATEMENT OF WORK

Engineering Technical Services for ENVIRONMENTAL AND SHIP MOTION FORECASTING (ESMF)

SYSTEM, NAVAL SURFACE WARFARE CENTER, CARDEROCK DIVISION

1. BACKGROUND and SCOPE OF WORK.

1.1. BACKGROUND.

The Office of Naval Research (ONR), in cooperation with the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) Program

Executive Office Ships (PEO Ships), and with the Military Sealift Command (MSC), established a Navy program to develop the Environmental and Ship Motion Forecasting (ESMF) system. The ESMF system would provide an operational capability that could measure, predict, and display environmental and ship motion parameters needed for ship operators to safely conduct seabasing operations at sea. The ESMF system threshold requirements were to demonstrate accurate ship motion and wave forecasting for time scales of interest (~5 minutes) in up to sea state 5 and ship speeds of up to 10 knots. The initial research and development (R&D) effort, which concluded in 2017, demonstrated utility for the seabasing application and showed promise for other at-sea operational applications. The secondary R&D effort began in 2018 and will be completed in 2021.

1.1.1. This ESMF system provides sea-based forces with environmental and ship motion forecasting as input to the Common Operation Tactical Picture (COTP), in order to forecast windows of opportunity for inter/intra-ship material and personnel movement. The ESMF system allows for single ship motion modeling and predictions, and for two ship motion modeling and predictions. The ESMF employs a customized X-Band marine radar to measure local wavefields and provides detailed sea-state information and wave timing. The specialized wave-sensing radar and an innovative signal processing method can forecast incident wave energy along the ship’s track and the resultant vessel motion predictions out to 60+ seconds in real-time. It provides queuing information for upcoming quiescent periods or conversely, imminent excessive motions, as well as recommends best courses/speeds to minimize motions based on the measured local wave energy spectrum. The ESMF system uses a reduced-order vessel motion prediction process that relies on a pre-calculated force-response database to allow for real-time computations. It uses Gravity (open-source, open-architecture) middle-ware to integrate sensor feeds, processing subroutines and user displays. This approach allows streamlined implementation of customized operator displays along with physics based models of specific vessels and unique equipment (e.g. cranes).

1.1.2. There are currently two versions of the ESMF system. The first is the User Operational Evaluation System

(UOES) which is a permanently installed system. It is currently installed on the Expeditionary Transfer Dock (ESD) ship United States Naval Ship (USNS) MONTFORD POINT and will be installed on an Expeditionary Fast

Transport (EPF) ship in the near future. The major hardware subsystems of the ESMF UOES system consist of a

User Workstation, a Primary Processing Unit (PPU), Coherent On Receive Radar (CORR), Ship Motion Sensor

(SMS), Meteorological Sensor, and an Ethernet Switch. A system diagram describing the components of the UOES onboard the ESD can be found in Section 2.0 of the document “ESMF UOES for ESD User Manual, 29 November

2019,” as referenced in Section 2.0 Applicable Documents. The second version of the ESMF system is called a Fly

Away Kit (FAK). It is a portable version that is meant to be carried on and off ships for short-term use (i.e. fleet exercises or demonstrations). All equipment is packed into pelican cases and can be installed/demobilized fairly quickly. The FAK consists of specialized sensors, a processing suite, and user workstations. There are currently two types of wave-sensing radars; either a modified Koden CORR 25kW X-band marine radar and Antenna or a

Gamic Wave Sensing Radar and Antenna. There may be instances when a telescoping radar mast is needed if there isn’t existing structure on the ship for radar placement. The other sensors include a Meteorological (MET) Sensor and a Ship Motion Sensor (SMS) with Antenna Tree that includes dual Global Positioning System (GPS) antennas.

The control and processing unit(s) are met by two commercially available ruggedized embedded PCs, the Cincoze

DS-1100. The user workstations that are typically placed on the bridge of a ship is a Dell 5290 laptop or similar system running Window 10 Professional 64-bit operating system. The ESMF User Interface runs on this processor and provides control of the system. Recent demonstrations where the FAK was utilized was onboard a Landing

Platform/Dock (LPD) to support multiple National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Orion Recovery

Tests; onboard USNS Pililaau in support of an exercise to resupply a Guided Missile Destroyer (DDG) from a

Large, Medium-Speed Roll-on/Roll-off (LMSR); and onboard a small ship in support of a Department of Energy

(DOE) test. An example of a FAK system diagram used onboard the USNS Pililaau can be found under “System

Description” on page 3 of the document “ESMF for LMSR/DDG Installation Plan 19 February 2020” as referenced in Section 2.0 Applicable Documents.
