Software Development for High Frequency Modems

FY 2025-26 · 2025-11-03

Summary
In this project, we will work on the development of software to use the dual frequency modems with an emphasis on versatile transmission capability. Specifically, the software will be capable of switching the transmissions between the Left-Channel or Right-Channels based on the desired transmission frequency without any work on the hardware. We will account for a wide range of frequencies between 19 KHz to 60 KHz. This will enable us to build on the versatile, broad frequency modem hardware that we have researched and developed and bring us closer to transmitting visuals under the water in near real time.

Description (French)
Dans le cadre de ce projet, nous travaillerons au développement d’un logiciel permettant d’utiliser les modems à double fréquence en mettant l’accent sur la polyvalence des capacités de transmission. Plus précisément, le logiciel sera capable de basculer les transmissions entre le canal gauche et le canal droit en fonction de la fréquence de transmission souhaitée, sans aucune intervention sur le matériel. Nous prendrons en compte une large gamme de fréquences comprises entre 19 kHz et 60 kHz. Cela nous permettra de nous appuyer sur le matériel de modem polyvalent et à large bande de fréquences que nous avons étudié et développé grâce à la recherche et développement, et nous rapprochera de la transmission d’images sous-marines en temps quasi réel.
