HELIOS REMOTE SENSING SYSTEMS, INC. — Department of Defense STTR Phase II: A20B-T024
HELIOS REMOTE SENSING SYSTEMS, INC. — STTR Phase II award from Department of Defense.
Phase II STTR prototype / development signal
- Phase II is where Department of Defense funds deeper R&D after feasibility. Incumbents with Phase II history are serious competitors on adjacent topics.
- Use this award as past-performance context and to map customer organizations for STRATFI/TACFI-style transition planning.
- Obligated amount $1,149,998 is consistent with substantial Phase II-scale effort; compare to related awards from the same agency.

Description
Helios Remote Sensing Systems, Inc. proposes to design, fabricate, and demonstrate a radar early warning receiver for the dismounted soldier’s uniform, armor or battle kit that identifies and locates Ground Surveillance Radar (GSR) threats. In Phase II we plan to demonstrate the feasibility of the technical approach through demonstrations of the Phase I designs, including breadboard or demonstration board of electronic components, signal processing, electronic integration with uniform, armor, or soldier kit, and detailed plans for placement as well as size, weight and power. The sensor will capture sufficient information to identify the GSR system from a library of waveforms. The system will be able to find angle of arrival and estimate of the location relative the user. The system will perform for signals in the X and Ku bands (8-18 GHz). Phase II deliverables will include, (1) a final report detailing technical approach, design, implementation, tests, data analysis, conclusions, and proposed path for integration with the soldier’s kit; (2) All test data; (3) Working breadboard prototypes with software.
