Research abstract
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.Ä€ 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.Ä€ Phase 1 will rely on extensive simulations of long range channels of varying CTD profiles.Ä€ Image Acoustics will simulate various low frequency, wide bandwidth transducers optimized for long range communications.Ä€ 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.
