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 evaluate SureWave Technology's seismic system for locating trapped miners by conducting tests at depths of 2,000 ft or more and under various challenging but common conditions.
-
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 design and demonstrate a location tracking system for underground coal mines using ultra-wideband (UWB) radio technology.
-
7/18/2016 - Contracts and cooperative agreementsA contract to develop a miner tracking system based on inertial navigation technology.
-
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.
