Description

This proposal is presented by the team of delResearch, Image Acoustics, and Falmouth Scientific, and investigates transducers and wavaforms required for reliable long-range acoustic communication.  Phase 1 will leverage delResearch experience and tools from PopotoModem ACOMMS product to investigate known and new waveforms at various data rates and probabilities of detection and interception.  Phase 1 will rely on extensive simulations of long range channels of varying CTD profiles.  Image Acoustics will simulate various low frequency, wide bandwidth transducers optimized for long range communications.  The response of these transducers will be integrated into an end-to-end simulation. The result of this work will be a down selected list of transducer and waveforms for prototyping in a Phase 1 Option and implemented and tested in real time in a Phase II SBIR.
