Command, Control, Communications Technology

Abstract

This program element (PE) researches and develops communications technologies, command and control (C2), and electronics systems and subsystems that provide the Army with enhanced capabilities for secure, mobile, networked communications, assured information delivery, and presentation of information that enables decision-making. Commercial technologies are continuously investigated and leveraged where possible. Project 779 researches and develops technologies that enable management of information across the tactical and strategic battle space; provide automated cognitive reasoning and decision making; and allow timely distribution, display, and use of C2 data on Army platforms. Project H92 supports research in technologies which potentially allow field commanders to communicate on-the-move to/from virtually any location, through a seamless, secure, self-organizing, self-healing, network. Project TR9 funds congressional special interest efforts. Work in this PE is complimentary of PE 0602705A (Electronics and Electronic Devices), PE 0603008A (Electronic Warfare Advanced Technology), and PE 0603772A (Advanced Tactical Computer Science and Sensor Technology), and is fully coordinated with PE 0602120A, (Sensors and Electronic Survivability), PE 0602783A (Computer and Software Technology), and PE 0602874A (Advanced Concepts and Simulation). The cited work is consistent with the Director, Defense Research and Engineering Strategic Plan, the Army Modernization Strategy, and the Army Science and Technology Master Plan. Work in this PE is performed by the Army Research, Development, and Engineering Command (RDECOM), Communications -Electronics Research, Development, and Engineering Center (CERDEC), Fort Monmouth, NJ and Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD.
