Wideband Command and Control Modem

Abstract

The report contains the tradeoffs and resultant baseline design for a Wideband Command and Control Modem. The waveform design for this modem provides uplink command data from a master ground station to each of 25 vehicles and receives status data in return. In addition, wideband imagery information is received from up to five of the vehicles in the target area. The application of this modem to remote pilotless vehicle (RPV) missions requires jam-resistant communications, especially for the command uplink, and requires a modem design with extremely low recurring costs for the vehicle electronics.
