LinkQuest’s
SoundLink underwater acoustic modems are designed to combat the three main
obstacles in underwater communication; poor reliability, low
data rate and high power consumption.
Using LinkQuest’s proprietary
Broadband Acoustic Spread Spectrum Technology the
company develops advanced underwater acoustic modems with
state of the art technologies outlined below:
-
Advanced
modulation scheme for improved signal-to-noise ratio
-
Channel
equalization to combat multipaths
-
Error
correction coding
-
Automatic
rate adaptation to combat varying noise conditions
-
Most
advanced DSP hardware and software
|
|
With
the innovative technologies, LinkQuest's modems have achieved significantly
increased data rate (up to 38,400 baud), lower power consumption and unprecedented
robustness.
All of LinkQuest's modems perform at a bit error rate of
less than 10
which is equivalent to the quality of wire line communication. LinkQuest's
extensive line of underwater acoustic modems outperform any
competing products in technical aspects for both near-vertical,
horizontal and extreme horizontal underwater environments.
LinkQuest’s
modems are also designed to be user friendly and provide a
completely transparent wireless RS-232 connection between two
end equipments as if they were directly connected through an
RS-232 cable. This
ensures seamless integration with underwater
instruments.
With superior products, unmatched track
record and uncompromising support to its customers, LinkQuest
dominates the acoustic modem market in the world.
