ASI Technology Corp. Wins Navy SBIR Contract for Plasma Antennas.

Business Editors

LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 6, 2003

ASI Technology Corp. (OTCBB:ASIT) announced that it has been awarded a $68,500 contract entitled "Plasma Phased Array Radar Antenna Architecture." The Phase I contract is sponsored by the Naval Surface Warfare Center under the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program.

The focus of this research is to integrate flexible plasma methodology into a cohesive shipboard radar antenna architecture. Plasma antenna technology offers advantages over traditional metal antennas including reconfigurability, stealth, reduced interference and variable reception or rejection of signals. The various plasma technologies to be evaluated will include plasma windowing to focus and reduce unwanted signals, plasma waveguides for improved and variable signal feeds, tunable plasma shields to protect systems, plasma frequency selective surfaces for variable filtering of signals and plasma phased arrays for signal steering.

The principal investigator under the contract is ASI's Theodore Anderson, Ph.D., a plasma physicist and mathematician. Anderson stated, "We are on the leading edge of plasma research employing plasmas in reconfigurable antennas and antenna arrays, smart antennas, communications, radar, shielding/filtering, waveguides, plasma decontamination and in jet engine noise reduction."

This is the first contract awarded to ASI in 2003, following three contracts awarded in 2002. Jerry Polis, ASI president added, "This topic will allow us to design a comprehensive architecture employing our patented and patent-pending plasma antenna technology for use in the next generation Navy digital radar. Plasma also helps to reduce shipboard antenna clutter, at less weight and with improved performance."
