Description

The base program will focus on simulation, modeling and testing CDMA based acoustic modem which will be tested on representative amplifiers and transducers. QorTek plans to model, code and test a CDMA based modem utilizing existing transducers, hydrophones and power amplifiers to enable countermeasure communication in a contested acoustic environment.  It is planned that the Phase I Base effort will conclude with a MATLAB and MODELSIM model that is validated with a hardware demonstration of the acoustic modem.  The Phase I Option will exit with a prototype that communicates via real time modulation that incorporates a second-generation FPGA hosted modem.
