Lambda Science personnel enjoy the challenge of the
most difficult technical problems that arise in advanced active and passive
sensor systems. The company’s specialty is advanced electromagnetic
sensors with applications in radar. Expertise includes surveillance,
tactical, instrumentation, HF over-the-horizon (OTH) and synthetic aperture
radar (SAR). The company also maintains expertise in acoustic sensors
(e.g., underwater towed array systems), and electro-optic/infrared (EO/IR)
sensors (e.g., infrared search and track (IRST), multispectral systems,
etc.). The staff maintains theoretical and practical capabilities
that include rigorous analytical performance prediction involving sensor
and environment modeling, to custom experiment design and hands-on hardware
performance evaluation. The staff has significant experience in end-to-end
system design and development, subsystem design and development, and advanced
signal processing. End-to-end system design experience includes almost
all types of military radar. Subsystem design includes conventional
antennas and phased arrays, direct digital synthesis exciters and high power
transmitters, low noise high dynamic range receivers, and transmit/receive
(T/R) modules for phased array system architectures. Advanced signal
processing techniques include low IF sampling digital I&Q filtering
and channel equalization, large time-bandwidth product waveform design and
associated processing, detection, tracking and fusion algorithm development,
and the design and application of spectral estimation and time-frequency
analysis techniques for the characterization of non-stationary processes.
In addition, the company has an excellent understanding of propagation and
scattering phenomenology, and expertise in many applications that must mitigate
and/or exploit this phenomenology. |
