Improving Testing Capability of Interoperability for Link-11 by Building a Gateway for a TCP/IP Network

Link-11 is a tactical digital communication network standard deployed in military platforms now for several decades. The standard employs the digital modulation technique Differential Quadrature Phase Shift Keying DQPSK to encode formatted binary messages (M-series messages) onto an audio channel, which are then modulated and transmitted over a radio communications...
