High Frequency (HF) communications at high latitudes can be extremely difficult due to ionospheric disturbances causing large variations of channel conditions. In order to establish communications during such conditions, ...

The report gives a brief introduction to non-lethal weapons in general and FFI's work in the field. This is followed by short descriptions of a number of scenarios suitable for the use of non-lethal weapons.

This report concludes the FFI project 824 “Analyse av sjøoperasjoner og -strukturer” (ANSJOS). It gives the background and motivation for the project, its change in objectives caused by changes in the timing of the ...

This report discusses different methods for formulating requirements for thermal camouflage materials or systems. The methods discussed range from full-scale realistic combat simulations to laboratory measurements of ...

This report presents a study of Pb, Cu and Sb contamination of a small stream at Steinsjøen shooting range in Norway. The main purpose of the study was to investigate the dissolved heavy metal concentration during episodic ...

ISAR (Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar) is a radar mode for high-resolution imaging of moving targets. Airborne ISAR has a potential for long-range ship classification. This report presents a method for automatic ship ...
