Documents / Report
This Defense Intelligence Reference Document was prepared by the Defense Intelligence Agency under its Advanced Aerospace Weapon System Applications (AAWSA) program, is dated 6 April 2010 and is part of a series of advanced technology reports produced in FY 2009. It reviews proposed laboratory generators and detectors of high-frequency gravitational waves for communications. It favors an infrared-excited molecules transmitter and the Li-Baker detector, estimating about 1.9 million bits per second over 7,000 km through the Earth. It also discusses timing standards and interplanetary navigation uses.
