Collaborative Autonomous UAS for Distributed Non-Kinetic Effects

SBIR · Phase: BOTH · Topic DAF27BZ02-DV019 · Solicitation 27.BZ

Traditional non-kinetic capabilities can be constrained by platform availability, cost, survivability, operator workload, communications requirements, and centralized mission architectures. Distributed autonomous UAS create the opportunity to separate the mission effect from a single exquisite platform and distribute sensing, decision-making, communications, and payload employment across multiple lower-cost aircraft. The Government seeks modular technologies enabling Group 2/3 UAS and similarly expendable autonomous aircraft to collaboratively carry and employ Government-approved non-kinetic payloads while operating under a human-on-the-loop command architecture. Potential mission functions may include lawful and authorized: Electronic support. Communications relay. Spectrum sensing. Deception and decoy functions. Distributed RF effects. Cooperative sensing. Network extension. Authorized cyber-physical mission effects. Signature generation. Mission-support effects. Other non-destructive effects. This topic is focused on enabling technologies, payload integration, distributed autonomy, mission coordination, and command-and-control architecture, not development of offensive cyber capabilities. Fundamental engineering considerations include: Modular Mission Systems Modular payload integration. Open mechanical, electrical, power, data, RF, and software interfaces. Integration of Government or third-party payloads without fundamental aircraft redesign. Support for multiple payload types and aircraft architectures. Low-SWaP-C implementation suitable for expendable UAS. Collaborative Autonomy Autonomous task allocation. Collaborative mission planning and execution. Distributed decision-making. Dynamic reassignment of tasks following aircraft or payload loss. Cooperative sensing and information sharing. Graceful degradation as individual aircraft become unavailable. Quantifiable collaborative mission performance. Human-on-the-Loop Control Human-on-the-loop mission command and authorization. Positive control over initiation and termination of mission effects. Operator ability to modify objectives, constraints, or mission priorities. Deterministic responses to loss of communications. Abort and safe-state functionality. Appropriate human authorization for mission functions requiring Government approval. Communications and Distributed Operations Operation with intermittent, degraded, or unavailable communications. Distributed decision-making without persistent centralized control. Low-bandwidth coordination methods. Time and spatial synchronization. Network extension and relay capability. Resilient interfaces with Government mission and C2 systems. Mission Assurance Geographical, temporal, frequency, target-set, or mission-based constraints as applicable. Prevention of unintended or unauthorized effects. Defined operating boundaries. Fault detection and graceful degradation. Quantifiable reliability and mission-effect performance.
