Product Name: Communication Using Underwater Ultrasonic Wireless (CUUUWi)
Manufacturer Name: L3Harris Technologies
Product Description: The L3Harris Communication Using Underwater Ultrasonic Wireless (CUUUWi) system is an innovative communications gateway that facilitates voice and text-based data transmission between above-water mobile phone and SATCOM users and underwater platforms. This advanced technology enables underwater vehicles and autonomous sensors to maintain connectivity with satellite and mobile telecommunications networks without the need to surface. CUUUWi serves two primary functions: it can be deployed on unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) to detect emergency signals from lost submarines and establish communication links for improved search and recovery operations, and it provides secure, encrypted communications for submarines operating in stealth mode. With a range of up to 10 kilometers (environment dependent), CUUUWi supports a variety of subsea platforms, including Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs), seabed sensors, submarines, ships, and divers. Utilizing third-generation MASQ multichannel Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) technology, the system ensures high reliability in communication, effectively mitigating multipath interference for robust underwater connectivity.
