Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV’s)

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle “Global Hawk”Northrop GrummanCorp.“Global Hawk provides high-resolution Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) andElectro-Optical/Infrared (EO/IR) imagery at long range with long loiter timesover target areas. A Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) capability is also beingdeveloped. Potential missions cover the spectrum of intelligence collectioncapabilities to support joint combatant forces in worldwide peace, crisis, andwartime operations.“Image and excerpt from: get/fy2001/dot-e/airforce/01globalhawk.html

SIGnal INTelligence SatellitesRadar detected, GlobalHawk informed“Signals intelligence (SIGINT) satellitesare designed to detect transmissionsfrom broadcast communications systemssuch as radios, as well as radars andother electronic systems The UnitedStates operates four constellations ofsignals intelligence satellites”Images and excerpt from: http://www.globalsecurity.orgRadar image from: ml

UAV “KillerBees”“It has systems for land or sea launch, recoveryand ground control During the land-basedtest, KillerBee was recovered in a net mountedon a rapidly moving truck, demonstrating thatthe guidance system enables aircraft recoveryfrom platforms moving at speeds similar to anaval vessel.“ represents a major upgrade to today'sembedded airborne surveillance, reconnaissanceand target acquisition capability.”RaytheonCorp.

UUV SWARM“A decentralized control scheme for large packs of unmanned underwatervehicles (UUV) is being proposed and investigated. This scheme is based onshared knowledge of a template, which includes operational plans, modes ofoperation, contingencies including the ability to adapt individual plans withinthe template to changing operational conditions, and the protocols fordisseminating individual state, network, and command information betweenUUVs”Image and excerpt from: php?f year 2006&f submit advgrp&f advid 10249548

Europa Rover NavigationPossible course projectManeuver on flat icy surface, thendrill through 200 meters of iceWhen water reached, either:(1) Act as UUV, or(2) Deploy a swarm of 100 10cm long UUV’sCommunicate with UUV’s if option (2) chosenCommunicate with base station that is also communicating withseveral orbiters and earth. The base station is also running aconcurrent simulation to the rover’s real-time code and will bebuilding a “GLOBAL” environmental map of the region of Europabeing explored. This information should also be communicatedback to the rover, -- and then to UUV’s if option (2) is chosen.Image from: http://www.mapaplanet.org/explorer/help/data set.html

literary techniques, such as the writer’s handling of plot, setting, and character. Today the concept of literary interpretation frequently includes questions about social issues as well.Both kinds of questions are included in the chart that begins at the bottom of the page. Often you will find yourself writing about both technique and social issues. For example, Margaret Peel, a student who .
