Jamming Resistant High-Frequency Communications (JRHF) Navy SBIR FY2016.1 Sol No.: Navy SBIR FY2016.1 Topic No.: N161-049 Topic Title: Jamming Resistant High-Frequency Communications (JRHF) Proposal No.: N161-049-0724 Firm: Intelligent Automation, Inc. 15400 Calhoun Drive Suite 190 Rockville, Maryland 20855 Contact: Marcos Bergamo Phone: (301) 294-4756 Web Site: http://www.i-a-i.com Abstract: Multi-vehicle communications systems (MVCS) provide data link and networking services between littoral combat ships (LCS) and unmanned vehicles (UVs) such as unmanned surface vehicles, unmanned underwater vehicles and remote multi-mission vehicles. Current radios cannot provide high data rates (>100 Kbps) under significant jamming conditions, e.g., up to 20 dB jammer to signal power ratio. The purpose of this effort is to design a jamming resistant waveform operating in the 18-35 MHz band that can provide high data rates in the presence of strong jammers. Benefits: An important group of commercial applications is SDR development. In addition to the SDR market, JRHF has commercialization potential in the form of an IP core implementing the waveform on VHDL or Verilog. JRHF applies to various commercial applications including public safety networking; wireless networking in unlicensed bands; terrestrial digital video broadcasting in spectrum white spaces freed by FCC; vehicular networking; and other ad hoc wireless networking.
