Description
Aret Associates proposes a Phase I effort to prototype a simulation that is capable of generating simultaneous sea clutter in the multiple sensors and geometries required to fully cover the operational conditions of the AEGIS Combat System (ACS) through tracking time-scales. The overall objective of this SBIR project is to then develop and integrate the sea clutter simulation into the AEGIS Combat System Testbed suitable for algorithms and tactics assessments. The Phase I base effort will focus on demonstrating the basic concept of simultaneous multi-modal, multi-geometry ocean clutter simulation that maintains fidelity at least through tracking times. The results of the simulation software can then be utlized in detection and tracking algorithm evaluation, mission design and system performance assessments to aid in preparing the AEGIS Combat System for future threats and stressing operational conditions.
