DataSoft Corp. — Department of Defense SBIR Phase I: The DataSoft Spectrum Fragmentation of Network Waveforms with Distributed Network solution

Description

The DataSoft Spectrum Fragmentation of Network Waveforms with Distributed Network solution identifies several candidate approaches for efficiently fragmenting and reconstituting spectrum using adaptive network control for enhanced MANET spectrum flexibility. Our candidate approaches respond to regulations on bandwidth limits and spectrum availability, as well as to local spectrum disturbances. Static fragmentation, Dynamic/Opportunistic fragmentation, and MANET simulations for spectrum reshaping and adaptive net control are developed to synthesize candidate approaches via iterative simulation and refinement. Performance metrics that quantify the technical, risk, complexity, compatibility, and ease of implementation benefits are defined and applied to rank order the candidates. The credibility of our chosen solution is supported by this broad based evaluation criteria used to rank order each candidate approach.
