We are proposing to develop unique and innovative Passive Missile Warning signature processing algorithms to meet threat identification needs and optimize IRCM protection for today''s military and civilian aircraft from the early generation AND today''s advanced IR missile threats. Our missile identification algorithm concepts concentrate on real time situational awareness processing of rocket motor radiated emissions, flight profiles kinematic characteristics and aircraft flight computer data to downsize the potential threat list to smaller more manageable lists for optimized tactical IRCM initiation. As the IR threat technologies advance, they also become more difficult to defeat from an IRCM perspective. It would be invaluable to know the type of missile being launched in terms of being able to narrow down the list of countermeasure techniques needed to be implemented to achieve the required aircraft protection levels. Commercialization of the rocket motor identification technology will involve product development, marketing and distribution of the associated MWS upgrades for both military and commercial IRCM applications. Primary candidates for commercialization of our MWS upgrade technology is for commercial aircraft, executive jets and Head of State IRCM applications.
