Awarding Agency: Department of the Navy

Contract Number: N6833524C0170

Description: The proposed capability will address Commercial technology (TRL 8/9) to enhance mission capabilities of unmanned surface and subsurface vessels (USV/UUV) and systems. Global Positioning System (GPS) denied navigation, small unmanned underwater vehicles and bottom crawlers, improved C3 (Command, Control and Communications), resilient communications paths, high throughput data exfiltration/infiltration paths, replenishment, and monitoring, sustainment, repair and maintenance of unmanned systems. Sense and avoid systems for small UUVs. Increased autonomy for unmanned resupply USV. Alternative Position Navigation and Timing (PNT) systems, including optical ship-relative navigation. Reduced data-exchange requirements. Low Probability of Intercept/Detection (LPI/D) communications methods.

Key Words:

  • Artificial Intelligence (Anomaly Detector, Deep Reinforcement Learning Agent), beam steering antenna, Counter Electronic Warfare, Encryption, cybersecurity, Frequency Hopping, 5G, Low Probability of Detection/Low Probability of Interception (LPD/LPI), neuromorphic processor, physics-based models, phased array antenna, quantum resistant, Radio Frequency (RF), SATCOM, Software Defined Radio, Zero Trust, USV/UUV, Simulations, 3GPP, O-RAN, UMV, UMA, UMAA

  • Autonomy, Command, Control, Communications (C3), C4ISR, Contested Logistics, Cyber Security, Distributed Sensing and Communications (DSaC), Telecommunications. Includes testing for Electromagnetic Compatibility EMC/Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) with NATO and coalition partner systems

Awarding Agency: US Air Force

Contract Numbers: FA864923P0397 and FA864923P1259

Description: Isidore will enhance cyber-resiliency and autonomy of space infrastructure and introduce anti-fragility in the face of an adversarial attack (enable the platform to recover from an attack in a better state, because it has learned), trust/authenticity, confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the information lifecycle processes to secure global strategic and tactical communications in contested environments, and in all domains.

Key Words

  • Artificial Intelligence (Anomaly Detector, Deep Reinforcement Learning Agent), Counter Adversarial AI, Encryption, cybersecurity, neuromorphic processor, physics-based models, quantum resistant, Radio Frequency, SATCOM, Zero Trust

  • Autonomy, Command, Control, Communications (C3), CubeSat, Space COMSEC, Contested, Denied Operationally Limited (CDO-L), Telecommunications
