Abstract:

In an ongoing effort to reduce the size, weight, and power of current acoustic localization systems, the Task Group SET-189 RTG on Battlefield Acoustic Sensing, Multimodal Sensing, and Networked Sensing for Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance ISR Applications evaluated the feasibility of replacing the pressure sensor microphone with that of a particle velocity sensor. The particular sensor of interest in this research was that of the Acoustic Multi-Mission Sensor AMMS developed by Microflown AVISA. This work addresses sensor capabilities and limitations both in the open field and more complex operational environments as they relate to small-arms fire SAF.
