Interface Design Description for the Multi-Mode Magnetic Detection System

摘要

This interface design Description (IDD) specifies the design for all internal and external software configuration item interfaces on the Multi-Mode Magnetic Detection System (3MDS), and documents the partition of related software development tasks between Polatomic, Inc. (PI) and Applied Signal Technology, Inc. (AST). 1.2 System Overview. The goal of the 3MDS project is to develop and demonstrate a real-time airborne magnetic detection system that is Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV)-based. The magnetic detection system consists of: a magnetometer, auxiliary sensors for noise reduction, and noise reduction/detection software. The system will be able to perform target search, target detection and, after cueing, perform target re-detection, localization, verification, classification, and tracking in deep water and in the littoral. This system will also support playback of collected data to support training and future algorithm development. Three proposed variants to the system are planned. A fixed-wing aircraft and manned helicopter variant, a single unmanned aerial vehicle variant, and a dual unmanned aerial vehicle variant.
