Abstract

By analyzing the voice communication performance of the existing tactical FM radios, the performance target of the newly developing TICN combat network radio system VHF band tactical voice communication waveform was derived. In addition, a vocoder and modulation method that can satisfy the performance target and additional requirements are presented, and the expected voice communication quality is analyzed.
