Description
During Phase I and a first Phase II, Welkin Sciences developed the Channel Realization Generator (CReG) algorithm, an enhanced functional replacement for the ACIRF code intended to be embedded into software link simulations and HWIL fading channel simulators. The proposed second Phase II effort will refine the CReG documentation and its software and firmware implementations. Many in the strategic communications test community have already recognized the significance and benefits of the CReG algorithm, as evidenced by the five strong support letters included in the proposal. In a higher sense, DTRAs modeling, analysis and test tools constitute the vehicle through which DTRA's decades of research in high-altitude phenomenology and RF propagation are delivered to scientists, contractors and testers. CReG represents a continuation of DTRAs long history of providing the strategic communications community with the tools they need to develop and test scintillation-hardened communications systems.
