FIELDMARSHAL INTEGRATED SECURITY SERVICES
57
Underwater communications from a variety of platforms, e.g. submarines, AUVs,
remote sensors and instruments.
Enables seamless contact with assets on and above the surface.
Water-Text can also be used to set up underwater communication networks, of
particular use in littoral or harbour waters.
Line of sight is not required and the signal will pass through sea walls.
Water-Text - Through-Water
Broadband Data Link
Water-Text uses the latest electromagnetic digital technology to enable high data
rate transmission over a short range, through water and ground.
Water-Text provides 2-way penetrating, wireless RF communications through
seawater at higher data rates of 100 kbps (compressed video transmission).
Applications include high speed data transfer between underwater sensors and
unmanned underwater vehicles (ROVs, AUVs and HAUVs).
TARGET APPLICATIONS
• UUV to remote sensors
• UUV to UUV
• UUV to host platform
• Homing and docking
• Data collection
• Through bulkhead
• Test tank Communication
• Water-Text will support compressed video transmission
Ground-Text - Through-Ground
Radio Modem
Ground-Text is a through-ground Radio Modem that was developed from the
Water-Text Underwater system.
Ground-Text has been optimised to operate 2-way through rock, soil, reinforced
concrete and other solid materials. Ground-Text can be readily tailored to a variety
of applications.
