7/19/2016 - Contracts and cooperative agreementsA contract to develop and demo a two-way, through-the-earth communication system for mines that applies state-of-the-art communications technologies to overcome subterranean wireless communication challenges while meeting industrial safety standards.
-
7/19/2016 - Contracts and cooperative agreementsA contract to enhance key features of the through-the-earth prototype previously developed to improve its usability, investigate design changes to comply with mine safety standards, ruggedize the hardware, and demonstrate performance at coal mine sites.
-
7/19/2016 - Contracts and cooperative agreementsA contract to develop and test a Media Converter Device (MCD) that allows wireless handheld radios to communicate with leaky feeder communication systems. This will greatly improve voice quality and underground communications coverage in cross-cuts.
-
7/19/2016 - Contracts and cooperative agreementsA contract to explore a new communication technology that re-uses undersea modem technology and concepts for seismic communication within the mining industry.
-
7/18/2016 - Contracts and cooperative agreementsA contract to develop and demonstrate a methodology for the uniform evaluation of tracking technologies in underground coal mines.
-
7/18/2016 - Contracts and cooperative agreementsA contract to develop a Severe Injury Surveillance System using the Mine Safety and Health Administration's accident/injury/illness database.
-
7/18/2016 - Interagency agreementsAn interagency agreement to develop modeling and simulation tools to evaluate the performance of underground mine wireless communications networks.
-
7/18/2016 - Contracts and cooperative agreementsA contract to explore the need for ensuring compressed air line integrity in a practical way through laboratory tests and design and construction considerations for compressed air lines to a refuge alternative.
-
7/18/2016 - Contracts and cooperative agreementsA contract to complete a beta test installation of the contractor’s inertial sensor tracking and communication system in a working mine and demonstrate the accuracy, communication capability, and suitability for use in a working coal mine.
-
7/16/2016 - Contracts and cooperative agreementsA contract to assess the suitability of current power line communication methods (used in nonmining applications) for underground coal mine communication, using mine electrical power distribution conductors as a system backbone.
