Abstract: Space Information Labs (SIL) and South Dakota State University (SDSU) have teamed to provide Navy an innovative, but also producible, approach to a robust mission and safety critical Li-Ion battery man-agement system across Navy platforms to include aircraft, helicopters, UAS, missiles and directed energy weapons. SIL's modular and scalable Li-Ion Intelli-Packr battery system will be designed to from 28Volts to 400Vdc with line replaceable units (LRUs) that can be easily troubleshoot and tested in the field. The robust intelligent BMS will be designed to work in extreme Navy environments (Aircraft, Helicopters, Missiles, etc.), and be qualified per MIL-PRF-29595A and NAVSEA S9310-AQ-SAF-010 design and environmental qualification requirement guidelines.
Benefits: With the support of Navy, MDA, Naval Crane and USAF SMC - LAAFB, SIL will pursue technology insertion opportunity in selected programs; this may include Phase II augmentation with matching funds, or Phase III funds from SBIR and DoD programs. If technically sound and cost effective, our products may also have customers throughout commercial rockets and small satellites as well as DoD space and missile programs. Anticipated DoD customers for this technology are Navy and other DoD organizations including United States Air Force for Aircraft and UAV projects such as F35, F22, Heli-copters, Global Hawk, Predator, Reaper, etc. Potential customers for this technology include Lockheed Martin Space Systems, Boeing Space, and other primes, e.g. Northrop Grumman and Orbital Sciences. Other potential commercial applications include robotics, electric vehicles and UAS
