Adaptive, Modular, and Secure Multi-Modal Communication and Computing System with Integrated Environmental Resilience for Terrestrial, Maritime, Airborne, Orbital, and Deep-Space Deployment

Abstract

An adaptive modular multimodal communication and computing panel includes a multilayer stack with a protective layer transmissive in selected bands, a reconfigurable communication layer operable in phased array, reflectarray, hybrid phased reflector, free space optical, or quantum modes, and electronics with heterogeneous processors. A multi scale interconnect and input and output fabric couples electrical, radio frequency, guided optical, and free space optical domains through interfaces including electro optic transduction and RF or baseband conversion. The fabric may implement programmable true time delay, resonators, and comb referenced timing. A management system coordinates beamforming, sensing, routing, calibration, workload placement, and security. Panels tessellate and connect by electrical, radio frequency, and fiber optic interfaces, supporting hot swappable modules, blind mate connectors, robotic servicing, and anti tamper features. Power and thermal subsystems harvest, store, regulate, and dissipate energy. The architecture scales from chip level modules to vehicle, airborne, maritime, orbital, and deployable systems.
