We are on a mission to unlock the full potential of a hyperconnected and value driven world by using Blockchain, Web3 technologies, and Artificial Intelligence. At Blockpayd, we realize that there’s a vast amount of untapped value by the nature of markets in silos. Our mission is to enable a single marketplace not bound by the power of middle men, or geographics, or demographics, or distrust, but a boundaryless, self-controlled, and self-organized ecosystem. Digital twins created and recorded on the owner’s self-accord can be bundled with other digital twins through enforceable smart contracts creating small and simple self-regulated organizations. By allowing trustable and transparent bundling of verifiable offers, the value chain can be practically infinitely large.
We believe that by fulfilling our mission, we can propel our planet and society towards a more sustainable, equitable, and trusted living.

In maritime communications a new VHF digital communication system (VDES) is currently jointly designed and standardized for terrestrial and satellite communications. The predicted time schedule of the ITU foresees first products to be launched in 2016. Two key challenges exist in the downlink, first not harming the already existing system of the spectrally close automatic identification system (AIS) and second the co-existence of the satellite and the measures to reduce the out-of-band emissions on an acceptable level for the different waveforms. Key tasks were; literature review of multicarrier waveforms and known counter-measures for out-of-band emissions, and implementing algorithms in software (Java) and analyzing the performance of these counter-measures (metrics are e.g. the out-of-band emission power or required overhead of additional signals)
