- Description
- The goal of the Transparent Urban Structures (TUS) Program is to improve the collection, understanding, and dissemination of intelligence for the urban conflict. The key focus of this program is to develop advanced technologies that make urban man-made structures transparent, thereby eliminating the safe harbor that buildings provide to hostile forces and their malicious activities. This capability will be provided through basic phenomenological research, hardware and algorithm development of sense-through-wall technology that can directly support tactical expeditionary urban operations in the Global War on Terrorism (GWOT). Sense-through-wall systems resulting from this research will be integrated into emerging net-centric Navy and Marine Corps Command & Control and Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C2 and ISR) acquisition programs through a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) . The program is structured around the following thrust areas: 1.) Developing sense-through-wall technologies which enable behavior/activity classification by determining intent of personnel within structures. 2.) Developing sense-through-wall technologies which enable standoff detection of weapons and/or explosives caches within structures. Any relevant technology will be considered, for example: RF, gamma-ray, x-ray, neutron, acoustic and terahertz. 3.) Creating three-dimensional image and mapping capabilities of man-made structures that update in real time. 4.) Providing decision aids by fusing sense-through-wall content of suspect structures. 5.) Optimizing sensor planning and facility/behavior/activity classification by augmenting and exploiting contexts from all intelligence sources. White Papers are encouraged prior to submitting a full proposal. White papers will be evaluated to determine whether an offeror is encouraged to make an oral presentation of its white paper to a panel of Government evaluators. An offeror may submit a full proposal without submitting a white paper or making an oral presentation. Approximately $10M is available in FY07. ONR plans to issue an annual BAA for this program. The total funding for the program is anticipated to be $33M during FY07-FY11. Point of Contact: Chris Williamson, Contract Specialist, Phone 703-696-2972, Email: williac@onr.navy.mil.
