Chapter 700: A New Plan

Yes, now submarine communications must rely on the surface of the sea to communicate equipment to support the needs of high-speed data communications for joint operations, for this point even if Duke is genius can not change, since this is the case, Duke no longer considers this problem, but focuses on another aspect.

That is to concentrate on coming up with a way to solve the problem of exposing targets caused by the link of submarine external communications; for submarine communications, the towed buoy antenna now used can only reduce the probability of the submarine being discovered to a certain extent, but because the current anti-submarine technology is becoming more and more sophisticated, for this kind of use of towed buoy antenna communication, all advanced countries in the world have a very mature set of detection means and equipment.

Through the electronic monitoring and positioning system on the anti-submarine aircraft or surface ships, the use of this technology can quickly locate the submarine's range of activity within a range of several kilometers, for a large target like a submarine, due to the limited speed of the submarine, after being positioned to such a small range of activities, it is difficult for the submarine to have a chance to escape the further positioning and attack of the anti-submarine aircraft, because in the range of several kilometers, it is not the fault that the submarine turns off all the power units and uses deep diving to sink to the bottom, otherwise it is difficult to escape the anti-submarine sonar search.

In other words, in order to support the needs of the joint combat system developed by Duke, the submarine needs to maintain long-term high-speed communication, and if only towed buoy antenna communication is used to maintain this communication, it is equivalent to lighting a beacon for the enemy to find the submarine, adding a deadly threat to the submarine.

Therefore, in the current submarine warfare, in order to avoid this risk, it is usually impossible for the submarine to maintain long-term high-speed two-way communication with the outside world, but in the process of floating charging or in an emergency situation to exchange data with the base or command center for a short time, most of the time the submarine adopts the state of passive information reception, which makes the submarine have to play the role of a lone ranger most of the time.

The so-called joint submarine operations now mean maintaining coordination at the campaign level, but if it is necessary to truly maintain coordination at the tactical level, it is simply impossible without the exchange of large amounts of information. Therefore, Duke's new plan is to ensure that in the case of long-term data communication, multiple decoy targets are added to mislead the enemy's electronic detection equipment.

According to Duke's design ideas, future submarine communications will be carried out using a group of buoy antennas, which can be released in the war zone before the war in a variety of ways according to the wireless communication base station, forming a distribution group with hundreds of kilometers of separation between each buoy antenna, so that it can cover the range of hundreds of kilometers in the war zone.

The towed buoy antenna on the submarine is designed to communicate with these nearby communication relay nodes for data exchange, which effectively avoids the exposure of its own position caused by direct communication with the base or other ships. If the new wireless communication technology invented by Duke is adopted, the signals of radio electromagnetic waves will only be distributed in a range of more than 100 kilometers, which will make the enemy's reconnaissance system extremely difficult.

The first thing they can discover is the decoy buoy antenna that is responsible for external communication, but because these decoy buoy antennas are so widely distributed, it is difficult for the enemy to find the submarine by monitoring wireless communications. In this way, the enemy's positioning of the submarine has been dramatically expanded from a range of a few kilometers to several hundred kilometers, which is equivalent to an order of magnitude to improve the safety of the submarine.

If Duke's plan is feasible, it will undoubtedly usher in a whole new era for the PLA Navy's submarine operations. If data exchange can be maintained unimpeded, Duke's theater joint combat tactics system will be put into use, and with the information provided by unmanned reconnaissance planes and surface ships in the sky, submarine battle groups lurking on the bottom of the sea will be able to truly concentrate firepower and coordinate operations.

Therefore, Duke is very excited about his new idea, and after he perfected the idea a little more in his mind, he handed over the idea to Kerry for further specific design, in terms of communication systems, Kerry's knowledge base has a large number of design schemes in this regard, such as Duke's previous development of the design scheme for the global hawk stealth drone monitoring system, and the design of the communication system on the Pterodactyl drone as a communication relay node.

Kerry can combine the elements of these schemes to design a specific submarine distributed communication design scheme.

The next day, with the distributed communication design scheme designed by Kerry, Duke found Professor Yu Deming.

"Professor Yu, this is one of my ideas, can you see if it is feasible?" Duke turned on the computer, displayed his plan on the curtain wall of the conference room, and briefly explained his idea to Professor Yu Deming.

"Dean Du, in principle, there is no problem with your plan, but there may be many problems in the specific implementation." Professor Yu Deming said after listening to the introduction. "It is not easy to make these distributed communication nodes work stably on the sea surface, and also have a certain degree of concealment so that the enemy will not be able to detect it quickly."

"Another point, submarine latent operations, usually last for a long time, and in the complex environment at sea, to make these communication nodes work stably for a few days and nights, but also need an independent and reliable long-term power supply, as far as I know, to cope with this kind of high-power wireless communication, the power capacity required is not low, as far as I know, the current battery has energy is difficult to support."

After listening to Professor Yu Deming's words, Duke opened another document and introduced the new battery invented in his robot project to Professor Yu Deming, "Professor Yu, a few days ago, our R&D team developed a new type of high-energy battery, you see, this is some of the performance indicators of the battery......"

Although Professor Yu Deming is an expert in the overall team of the Qianlong project, no one in the project team knows about Duke's invention of a new type of high-energy battery.

Therefore, when Professor Yu Deming listened to Duke's introduction, his face was full of disbelief, "No wonder the navy suddenly wants to start such a big renovation project, it turns out that Dean Du has made such a big breakthrough in high-energy batteries, and I am very strange when I just received the notice from my superiors, why the navy will modernize the conventional submarines in service." ”

Professor Yu Deming said excitedly, "With this new type of high-energy battery, the modernization of the naval submarine is equivalent to half of the success, for the distributed communication node that Dean Du just talked about, I think it is also very promising, and now we can focus on how to design the concealment of this node." But for these details, we can let the following team think about the design. ”

With Professor Yu Deming's approval, Duke has great confidence in his plan, although there may be many problems in the specific implementation, but compared to the development of a new communication technology, this technical difficulty is not worth mentioning.
