Common Synthetic Aperture Processing (C-SAP)

ABSTRACT: Colorado Engineering Inc. (CEI) proposes to leverage its collective expertise in radar systems design, electromagnetics (EM) and modeling, LADAR system design, antenna design, advanced processing architectures and digital signal processing (DSP) algorithm design to develop algorithms and processing architectures for a dual mode Ladar/Radar synthetic aperture sensor.; BENEFIT: CEI has a history of success commercializing technologies developed under government programs.The most recent evidence of this success can be seen in the presentation of the Tibbetts Award to CEI by the Small Business Administration. This prestigious award is given to small businesses that represent excellence in achieving the mission and goals of the SBIR program, stimulating technological innovation, and increasing the commercialization of Federal research. CEI was presented with this award at a White House ceremony. CEI has developed software and hardware technologies for a variety of government programs, and the team has transitioned over 40 products to production for use in DoD and Government systems. CEI also has experience commercializing technology developed under Government-funded programs. Products are packaged as COTS items, listed on a catalog price sheet, supported with technical application notes and marketing materials, and made available for sale to both the commercial and government markets. CEI will promote technologies developed under this effort as part of its standard commercial product marketing and sales activities.
