Update #2 · Latest ·

Added: Mar 03, 2017 2:00 pm PRISM will develop an Illumination Selection Manager (ISM) algorithm which will allow dynamic illuminator selection for a passive radar. The algorithm will be implemented in real time and demonstrated by controlling an AFRL-developed end-to-end Passive MultiMode (PMM) system. The ISM will ingest emitter descriptions from a front-end Electronic Support subsystem and control a back-end surveillance RF collection subsystem. The three objectives are to (1) Build, integrate, and test the ISM; (2) Develop a technology improvement plan toward an operational system; (3) Enhance the ISM algorithm as required for an operational system. Further details are included in the Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) and within the Statement of Objectives (SOO).

Update #1 ·

Added: Dec 02, 2016 10:23 am The Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) Sensors Directorate has a planned new research program called Passive Radar Illumination Selection Manager (PRISM). The PRISM program will research, design, document, and test an Illumination Selection Manager (ISM) subsystem in furtherance of the Passive MultiMode (PMM) vision. PMM seeks a multi-mode passive radar system which adapts to local conditions. The ISM testing will demonstrate real-time functionality. A roadmap shall be developed outlining the approach to an ISM suitable for current and future platforms. The PRISM effort will have two objectives. The first objective will be to design and implement a real-time ISM algorithm. Inputs to the ISM will be emitter reports from a front-end Electronic Support subsystem. Outputs from the ISM will be commands to a back-end surveillance data collection subsystem. The second objective will be to develop a technology roadmap for an operational ISM capability. This is a pre-solicitation notice only. Anticipated issue date for the Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) is TBD at this time. Details of the BAA will be included when the BAA is issued via FedBizOpps.
