LPx Covert Communication Solution

Modern Naval tactical operations demand high-speed data exchange, but traditional waveforms like HaveQuick and Link-16 fall short in enabling covert, high-capacity communication. In multi-domain scenarios involving UAVs and other Naval assets, communications must achieve LPx (Low Probability of Detection and Interception). Low Probability of Detection (LPD) minimizes the chance that an adversary detects the signal, and Low Probability of Intercept (LPI) ensures that even if detected, the signal cannot be decoded or exploited. However, advancements in RF sensing, such as sub-Nyquist sampling and pattern recognition, have made it easier to detect and jam signals that use conventional techniques such as Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) and encryption. These waveforms also suffer from reduced bandwidth as hop counts increase, added overhead from key coordination, and high power consumption, particularly problematic for long-range, battery-powered devices. Additionally, neither FHSS nor encryption can conceal distinctive patterns like OFDM signatures, which makes them vulnerable to identification through advanced recognition techniques.
Designed for covert, high-throughput, and resilient communications, GANWave has the following advantages:
- GANWave enhances LPx by utilizing AI to protect the transmitted signals from AI-based attacks, statistical analysis, and modulation technique recognition;
- GANWave optimizes OFDM subcarrier power to protect the signal from feature detection and cyclostationary inference attacks;
- GANWave utilized deep learning to improve beamforming, making it more energy-saving and less susceptible to interception.
GANWave set for commercialization across both Naval and broader DoD markets through strategic collaborations with Raytheon, Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics, and BAE Systems, targeting organizations such as NAVAIR, PEO-C3T, CECOM, NAWCAD, and DCSA. It will enhance covert communications in contested environments by enabling LPx, high-capacity, and energy-efficient waveforms. Integration pathways include manpack transceivers like the AN/PRC-155, BLOS maritime systems such as the AN/USC-61(C), and military platforms like the Harris Falcon III and Thales JEM radios. GANWave will be demonstrated to key defense partners (e.g., GDLS, Honeywell) and military stakeholders to support adoption in Naval aviation and ISR systems. Furthermore, it may be embedded in advanced platforms such as the MQ-4C Triton and Raytheon’s AN/ALQ-249 Next Generation Jammer to provide enhanced protection against electronic surveillance and jamming. On the civilian front, GANWave supports secure, resilient communication in public safety (via Motorola ASTRO 25), smart cities (via Cisco Kinetic), and healthcare (via Philips HealthSuite), while also enabling stealth data links for dual-use UAVs like Skydio X2, Raven, and ScanEagle. Close partnerships with UAV OEMs will support rapid prototyping and transition to commercial markets.
