WIN-T INCREMENT 2 -INITIAL NETWORKING-ON-THE-MOVE

Abstract

Increment 2 capability supports limited collaboration, mission planning and on-the-move. WIN-T Inc 2 is key to the Army's Network Modernization program. It enables distribution of information via voice, data, and real-time video from ground-to-ground and ground-to satellite communications. Increment 2 capitalizes on commercial off-the-shelf/Government off-the-shelf (COTS)/(GOTS), mature technologies and adds mobility to the Brigade Combat Team (BCT) including Battalions and Companies. Increment 2 initially enables planning, monitoring, controlling and prioritizing (PMCP) the Div Headquarters (HQs) and/or the Bde network. It will disseminate critical information in less than five seconds and time sensitive information in less than eight seconds. Mobile communications for select users are enabled at 256 kbps for speeds up to 25 mph. It provides vehicular personnel force protection. It extends wide area/Global Information Grid (GIG) network connectivity to the lower tactical subnets at the company level. Network survivability is enhanced by automatically reconfiguring the network due to node(s) or link loss(es). Spectrum reuse is accomplished with the Highband Network Waveform (HNW) and Net Centric Waveform (NCW). The Quality of Service (QoS) capability enables message trafficking prioritization by level of importance to the warfighter. This Increment provides commercial and military band satellite communications to Div, Bde, Bn and Company (Co). WIN-T Inc 3 develops the mature technologies which will be inserted into Inc 2. FY12 funding provides government test support for New Equipment Training, Cold Region Test, Force Development Test and Experimentation (FDT/E), Initial Operational Test (IOT), as well as the support required for the Full Rate Production Decision Review.
