We are proposing a technology demonstration mission for JPL’s Inter-Satellite Optical Communicator (ISOC). The ISOC has the potential to enable up to 1 Gbps data rates over a distance up to 200 km in free space. Key features ...

Assessment of geometric line of sight is the most important purpose of the topography model in the Corps Battle Simulation, a constructive simulation program that supports training exercises for senior commanders and staff ...

We are developing simulation and analysis tools in order to develop a solid Earth science framework for understanding and studying active tectonic and earthquake processes. The goal of QuakeSim and its extension, the Solid ...

In order to develop a solid earth science framework for understanding and studying of active tectonic and earthquake processes, this task develops simulation and analysis tools to study the physics of earthquakes using ...

This paper will review four standards that already released or being developed that specifically address the issues on qualification and reliability of assembled packages. Exposures to thermal cycles, monotonic bend test, ...

This paper discusses the process being used and the results of the selection and qualification of a low cost prepackaged diode laser with a custom packaged microchip laser crystal.
