Abstract

The report presents the projects of the research area; their issues and targets, activities, results and conclusions, dissemination of knowledge, usefulness and effects for the customer. The following projects are described:  Particle collection and models for dispersion for more efficient detection of explo-sives  Watermarking  Submarine platform for on-site analysis of dumped ammunition  Distributed data-bases for mobile communications  Self focusing electromagnetic systems  Assessment of base-technologies from a system and capability perspective  Soldier positioning systems  Improved decision support for complex command groups  Sensor integrated data compression  Radar for detection of human activities around corners The following scanning projects focussing on state-of-the-art are described: - Methods for follow-up and assessment of peacekeeping operations. - SANDIS - Combat modelling - Molecule dynamics - Ultrashort laserpulses.for applications within sensors and countermeasures - Detection of small targets at sea - Hyper spectral analyses of cells and tissue exposed to airborne particles
