Description
Corvid Technologies proposes to develop a robust, fast running algorithm to calculate predicted intercept points (PIPs) for cooperative missile guidance of interceptors against multiple threats. These strategizes will determine the number of interceptors to be launched, their launch times, which threats they will engage, and will coordinate their flight paths to enhance lethality, avoid debris, and lower cost. This algorithm will be developed using a two-tiered approach. First create a large database of optimized PIPs spanning many different threat scenarios by using global optimization. Second use this database to train a neural network to create optimized PIPs in real time. This algorithm will be customized to the specific capabilities of the AEGIS Combat System (ACS) through comprehensive simulation in order to cover the complete range of potential threat scenarios.
