Hyper-wideband Enabled RF Messaging (HERMES)

Abstract

Modern weapons systems are dependent on radio frequency (RF) links for communications, command and control, geolocation and battle management. This dependence will only grow with the move to disaggregated systems in the battlefield. To create assured RF links in contested environments, HERMES will study the architectures and develop the technologies to enable spread-spectrum links with 10 GHz of instantaneous bandwidth. The ultimate objective is >70 dB of jammer suppression. This program will explore the limits of jammer suppression through a combination of processing gain and tunable filtering in a hyper-wideband system.
