Joint Tactical Radio System (JTRS) Compliant Anti-Jam Waveform for Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) Unmanned Vehicle Beyond Line of Sight

The Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) deploys multiple Unmanned Vehicles in support of the interchangeable Mission Packages. The Multiple Vehicle Communications System (MVCS) provides LCS Mission Packages with the capability to simultaneously communicate with multiple Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USVs) and surfaced Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUVs) by providing common data link and network communication services. The objective of this research is to develop a JTRS compliant waveform that meets the requirements of the MVCS and provides the ability to operate in environments of 20 dB Jammer to Signal power density. Aeronix proposes the COMMX based SC-FDMA Anti Jam (CSAJ) JTRS compliant waveform for the replacement of the PRC-117 radio within the MVCS system.The CSAJ waveform will address the following challenging areas:Operating in heavy sea states, states 6-9Operating in J/S environment of 20 dB500 kbps return and 50 kbps forward using OFDM bit dense techniquesMultiband HF Cognitive decision making.JTRS Compliant WaveformsUse DARPA developed COMMX technology provided by BAE
