Technology Innovation Institute (TII), the applied research pillar of Abu Dhabi’s Advanced Technology Research Council (ATRC), today announced that its Directed Energy Research Center (DERC) has launched a state-of-the-art facility in Tawazun Industrial Park (TIP), a regional hub for strategic businesses in the safety and security sector offering world-class business infrastructure.
This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20220523005302/en/
The facility comprises seven distinct workshops and five specialized laboratories. Each caters to a specific research domain from mechanical and electronics workshops, prototype test area, coil winding, armature filling, dielectric testing, and acoustic prototyping lab. The laboratories are Pulse Power Lab, Semi-Anechoic Chamber, Tempest Chamber, Acoustic Lab, and Laser Development Lab.
The facility hosts three mobile research laboratories that can be used in conjunction with the primary laboratories or be deployed in the field for outdoor testing, including two Electromagnetic Mobile Labs and a Mobile Laser Lab. Applications DERC focuses on include High-Power ElectroMagnetics (HPEM) and Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) testing. DERC also undertakes innovative research in the HPEM and Pulsed Power domain, along with prequalification tests for multiple industries in the region.
A first for the GCC, DERC’s facility conducts industry-leading Radio Frequency testing to manufacture and characterize high power, solid-state devices. The facility also carries out highly sensitive Acoustic experiments that require a high degree of isolation from environmental sound and vibrations, supporting development and characterization of unusual acoustic transmitters and sensors.
The controlled environment in the labs identifies involuntary sound sources in complex electronic systems that might lead to side-channel leakage. DERC’s custom-developed optical vibration analysis tools can examine mechanical system behavior across a wide range of frequencies.
Additionally, the Center has also introduced groundbreaking Signal Electronics & Acoustics (SEA) prototyping to facilitate the local development of advanced solutions like small/high-density RF and acoustic devices. The facility can undertake soldering, complex mechanical assembly, testing while advancing prototyping in 3D printing.
DERC’s Mobile Laser lab is the first of its kind in the region to conduct laser experiments outdoors to explore propagation of a high-power laser and study the effect on targets at a distance in the arid Gulf environment. Emitting a multi-kW continuous laser, the lab is equipped with a telescope mounted on a pan-tilt, focusing a beam over a distance ranging from 200 m to 2,000 m. Connected to an electrical generator, the mobile lab is designed to be used autonomously outdoors under extreme temperatures of up to 50°C.
Speaking on the new facility, Dr. Ray O. Johnson, CEO of Technology Innovation Institute (TII) and Acting CEO, ASPIRE, said: “At TII, we are committed to attracting global talent to our research centers. Given this priority, we are proud to witness DERC’s phenomenal achievement with this facility. Such innovative hubs draw a growing number of researchers as well as customers keen to benefit from testing capabilities across varied sectors.”
Dr. Chaouki Kasmi, Chief Researcher, Directed Energy Research Center (DERC), said: “We are excited to finally witness the launch and cutting-edge capabilities of this new facility that will offer us a distinct advantage while giving the UAE much-needed autonomy when it comes to ensuring comprehensive testing and establishing a reliable supply chain.”
The Center’s achievement of bringing together multiple core capabilities under one roof provides opportunities to take HPEM testing to greater heights while enabling the testing of high-power lasers in compact environments.
