Description
United States Air Force (USAF) platforms continue to evolve and high-performance electronics become more crucial to achieve mission objectives. As the technological complexity of electronic components becomes more complex the reliability of all electronic components becomes essential. Mission-critical electronic components require exceptional operational reliability to ensure high confidence in mission completion. Air Force Condition Based Maintenance (CBM) initiatives are revamping maintenance processes and capabilities to be based on measurement-based assessment of weapon system condition to get better maintenance outcomes. This SBIR will develop a prognostic Remaining Useful Life Assessment Suite (RULAS) by measuring and analyzing the natural Radio Frequency (RF) emissions that all electronics give off. This effort will leverage those emissions to develop a unique and critical capability advancement for Department of Defense (DOD) electronic components in support of Air Force maintenance activities.
