In modern warfare, cohesive task forces rely on seamless communication—yet submarines, due to their critical need for discretion, remain the most challenging assets to integrate into the network.
**LORAAL**, developed by Seagnal, is an advanced acoustic transmission system designed to enable secure, long-range and customizable communication between submarines, surface ships, divers, and autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs).
LORAAL strengthens operational capability by allowing submarines or AUV to send and receive messages, files, and tactical data—all while maintaining their stealth.
Our **plug-and-play solution** ensures quick installation and optimal use of existing antennas and transceiver devices, such as underwater telephones, making it a versatile choice for modern naval forces or AUV designers.
Extended Range: Achieves long-distance communication (up to 50 km at sea) using onboard acoustic arrays.
Robust Modulations: Engineered for high-reverberation environments, ensuring reliable data transmission.
Versatile Compatibility: Works with various platforms, antennas, and transducers, adapting to your operational needs.
Flexible Data Rates: Supports rates from 4 bit/s to 30 Kbit/s, with a frequency band from 100 Hz to 80 kHz.
High Doppler Resistance: Operates effectively at speeds up to 30 knots.
Modern Technology: Software-defined modem (x86 and ARM), compatible with COTS hardware and existing systems.
Modulations: OFDM, Janus, and custom long-range modulations.
Hardware: 2 kW amplifier electronics, beamforming electronics, and onboard modem.
Enclosure Options: OEM Electronics, Waterproof or IP67-rated casings for demanding environments, or only Software.
Integration: Compatible with x86 and ARM architectures, single transducers, or arrays.
LORAAL is ideal for missions requiring discreet and efficient communication between:
Naval forces,
Divers,
AUVs
Other tactical assets in underwater environments.
LORAAL is engineered to run natively on compact x86 or ARM processors, making it ideal for deployment in the field.
Simply load the software onto a rugged laptop or embedded platform, and you’ll have instant, secure acoustic‑communication capability ready for any mission scenario.
An eDPC‑enabled embedded solution integrates with LORAAL’s firmware, delivering low‑power, real‑time communication scheduling, adaptive modulation, and fault‑tolerant operation.
This compact solution guarantees reliable acoustic links on embedded devices.
A 2 kW acoustic amplifier boosts LORAAL’s transmission power, extending operational range.
It maintains signal integrity, enabling reliable long‑distance communication between deep‑water assets and surface platforms.
