弹性组网分布式马赛克通信项目实现远程通信新模式

Resilient Networked Distributed Mosaic Communications Program Implements New Mode of Remote Communication

为解决远程战术通信天线功率大、隐蔽性差以及易被干扰等问题,并打破对大型天线和大功率放大器的依赖,DARPA启动了弹性组网分布式马赛克通信项目。该项目旨在开发小型收发单元组成的马赛克天线,并部署在空间分布的各种海、陆和空等领域的平台上,最终实现远距离通信。介绍了项目的背景、内容和特点,解析了项目的潜在实现途径和应用场景,分析了涉及的关键技术难点,最后给出了项目对未来作战通信能力的影响。

In order to solve the problems of large power, poor concealment and easy interference of longrange tactical communication antenna, and break the dependence on big antenna and high-power amplifier,the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency(DARPA) launched the Resilient Networked Distributed Mosaic Communications(RN DMC) program. The program aims to provide long-range communications through mosaic antennas composed of small transceiver elements,spatially distributed on various platforms in sea, land and air domains. The background, content and characteristics of the program are introduced. Then, the potential RN DMC approach and scenarios are described, and the key technical difficulties involved are analyzed. Finally, the impact of the program on future operation communication capability is presented.
