Jamming Resistant Networking Technology Navy SBIR FY2014.1 Sol No.: Navy SBIR FY2014.1 Topic No.: N141-035 Topic Title: Jamming Resistant Networking Technology Proposal No.: N141-035-0605 Firm: Intelligent Automation, Inc. 15400 Calhoun Drive Suite 400 Rockville, Maryland 20855 Contact: Marcos Bergamo Phone: (301) 294-4756 Web Site: www.i-a-i.com Abstract: We propose the design and development of JARNET - a jam-resistant networking technology that supports communications between unmanned surface vehicles and littoral combat ships under a variety of jamming conditions, including, continuous wave, pulsed and broadband noise. JARNET combines spectrum sensing, capacity-approaching channel coding, spreading and adaptive modulation to maximize spectrum utilization under various channel conditions, including jamming. Benefits: The primary benefit of JARNET is jamming-resistance and adaptive behavior under varying environmental conditions, which is essential for current and future military communication systems. The technology will also find applications in the commercial sphere by providing cognitive capabilities to radios in an increasingly congested spectrum, especially in the unlicensed frequency bands or white spaces.
