Description

To meet the demands of the A19C-T002 STTR solicitation (“Millimeter Waveforms For Tactical Networking”), we propose to develop a millimeter wave handheld radio design which leverages COTS 5G components to reduce cost. To provide flexibility for Army applications, the design will take a software defined radio approach which will provide anti-jamming and enhanced LPI/LPD. Further security will be increased through the use of an embedded encryption module. The design will include an adhoc mode for environments without cellular infrastructure. In Phase I, MaXentric will perform a study involving analysis, modeling and experimentation to design and estimate the performance of the proposed millimeter wave handset. This will include a trade study of all reasonable solutions. During Phase II, a prototype system will be developed, demonstrated and delivered.
