Description

This SBIR Phase II.5 proposal further develops, enhances, characterizes and demonstrates the Software-Defined MGUE receiver technology, showcased in a Navy SBIR Phase II program to address the resource constraints in terms of Size, Weight, and Power Cost (SWsP-C) of NAVWAR modernized GPS users, such as handheld radios, projectiles/mortars, and small tactical UASs and others. In the SBIR Phase II.5 program Mayflower will implement the SD-MGUE design in software on a multi-core processor prototype, demonstrate its NAVWAR compatibility in laboratory and transition it to Navy programs of record. The technology limitations, i.e., processing capability of embedded micro-processors in the past have prevented realization of a software defined MGUE vision. A successful technology demonstration in a SBIR Phase II.5 program and its integration on a selected Navy platform will showcase this advanced MGUE technology, reduce the implementation risks and make the benefits of this technology available to a large class of Navy PNT users and platforms.
