The objectives of the Distributed RF Sensing (DRS) are to conduct cutting edge R&D of RF system and sub-system technology concepts to provide next-gen radio frequency (RF) sensing technologies to external customers and the warfighter with the technology required for enduring success. These objectives include:


Development and demonstration of advanced sensor models, concepts, and technologies in existing and emerging RF intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) sensor systems


Improvement of active and passive RF sensor operation in stressing interference environments and against advanced and non-conventional targets and threats


Development of target and environment RF scattering theory, computational electromagnetics, and radar measurements for efficient and accurate simulations of advanced radar operations in complex interference environments


Perform extensive modeling and simulation, algorithm development, data analysis, experimentation, and validation to assess promising technologies, evaluate advanced concepts and ensure appropriate system-level trades are balanced as technology is matured


Conduct radar measurements and experiments for validation and verification purposes


A key-enabling component is the use of sub and full-scale experimental assets in the form of the AFRL/RY Indoor Range, Outdoor Radar Range, Modeling Experimentation Sensor Analysis (MESA Grande) Laboratory, and mobile test resources associated with these. These assets will be provided as Government Furnished Services/Base Support.
