La Oficina Nacional de Reconocimiento\u00a0(NRO – USA), inform\u00f3 por medio de su Director\u00a0Pete Muend en la conferencia USGIF GEOINT 2022 que el seguimiento de RF para Ucrania, ha sido un “gran beneficio”, y esta Agencia de Vig & Icia\u00a0 busca expandir la capacidad.<\/p>\n

GEOINT 2022: The National Reconnaissance Office this summer will ask satellite companies providing radio frequency geolocation data to make a pitch for study contracts, the agency\u2019s head of commercial operations said on Monday.<\/p>\n

Pete Muend, director of the NRO Commercial Systems Program Office, told the USGIF GEOINT 2022 conference that the spy satellite agency will issue a Broad Agency Announcement calling on commercial industry, just like it did\u00a0last year to launch study contracts<\/a>\u00a0with\u00a0synthetic aperture radar (SAR)<\/a>\u00a0providers. Using a BAA, rather than a more formal request for proposal (RFP) allows the agency to more rapidly open the study effort, using nontraditional contracting methods.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnder our strategic commercial enhancements, I do want to mention and announce that that is going to be focused on commercial RF, and so we\u2019re really here to move forward \u2014 just like we did on the commercial radar side, but to have in place a broad solicitation across industry on the commercial RF side of things,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s going to, obviously, include a lot of data around modeling and simulation as well as where companies actually have on-orbit capabilities.\u201d<\/p>\n

RF geolocation satellites work by detecting the sources of RF emissions on Earth. For example, they can pinpoint the location of GPS jammers, as well as the Automatic Identification System (AIS) signals used by ships to identify themselves and broadcast their location.<\/p>\n

NRO\u00a0in 2019 launched a study contract<\/a>\u00a0with RF geolocation provider Hawkeye 360, and is now \u201cusing that contract to great benefit\u201d in keeping eyes on the war in Ukraine, Muend said. \u201cThey\u2019ve, like I said, been providing RF detections over the Ukraine crisis area, but also we\u2019ve been using that data to think through what the next generation of the overhead SIGINT architecture is, and making sure we can bring to bear what commercial RF can do as part of that. So, I think that\u2019s the very beginning of a very fruitful relationship there.\u201d<\/p>\n

Muend said that NRO would use the same contracting and licensing terms for acquiring commercial RF that it has used for SAR, which has \u201cactually proven very, very beneficial\u201d and allowed the agency to share the information widely with allies and partner nations.<\/p>\n

The BAA on RF geolocation, like that for SAR, will be opened to companies with foreign headquarters. In the case of SAR, one of the key reasons was that there aren\u2019t all that many commercial firms in the field, and some of the best ones actually are foreign owned. Of the five SAR-sat companies now under NRO study contracts, two are US arms of foreign companies \u2014 Airbus US and ICEYE US.<\/p>\n
