Robust Alignment Concepts for Precision Guided Weapons

RDAS will baseline its effort from a generic system, the elements of which could be either collocated or non-collocated, wherein the targeting sensor, weapon and fire control systems are integrated, as is the case for modern system development. From the baseline, the sub-elements of the system will be defined and the error sources identified. The errors will then be categorized as fixed, variable or random and then characterized. Concepts for determining misalignment will then be generated. At the conclusion of Phase 1, and in preparation for Phase 2, RDAS will propose for a Phase 1 option to develop the methodology and the criteria needed to select the best concept of those concepts formulated in Phase 1.
