SRW Development

Abstract

SRW will operate on tactical radio sets to provide a networked battlefield communications capability for users engaged in land combat operations and will support voice, data, and video communications on the immediate battlefield. These forces include vehicles, rotary wing, dismounted soldiers, munitions, sensors, and unmanned air vehicles (UAV). Functional software applications will use SRW radio enabled sets over Internet Protocol (IP) capable networks and sub-networks. SRW will be interoperable with higher throughput, IP based network waveforms, such as Wideband Networking Waveform (WNW). As applicable, these IP-based networking waveforms will enable information exchanges through the Global Information Grid (GIG) to the soldier and provide entirely new capabilities for battlefield communications and information sharing. SRW is currently ported on 21 different radio platforms with 9 different vendors. FY15 effort: JTN Enterprise Over-the-Air Management (OTAM) design provides Non-Developmental Integration (NDI) vendors a portable Operating Environment (OE)-centric OTAM approach extensible to SRW, WNW, and future networking waveforms. The Enterprise OTAM is platform and waveform agnostic and provides remote Unit Task Reorganization and radio management capabilities.
