WIN-T Increment 3 - Full Networking

Abstract

Warfighter Information Network Tactical (WIN-T) Increment 3 (Inc 3) provides full network mobility and introduces an additional Line-of-Sight link using an airborne platform, building on the capabilities of previous WIN-T Increments. WIN-T Inc 3 connects all users to each other from theater down to the maneuver company level, to Joint and multinational elements, and to the Defense Information System Network (DISN). WIN-T Inc 3 is key to the Army's Network Modernization program. It provides a leap forward in network capacity with improved system reliability and robustness, made possible by the new Highband Networking Waveform (HNW) version 3.0 embedded on the Joint Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance (JC4ISR) radios. The technology advances in the combination of the JC4ISR radios and HNW will provide a throughput capability four times greater than currently fielded networking radios. The Air Tier implementation of the JC4ISR radios and HNW 3.0 will offload significant amounts of traffic from satellites with reduced operating cost to the Army, freeing satellite bandwidth and providing the Commander the ability to allocate bandwidth resources at the critical point on the battlefield. WIN-T Inc 3 Network Operations (NetOps) software provides the on the move capability to meet the Global Information Grid (GIG) NetCentric Vision including Information Assurance and Network Centric Enterprise Services with mature planning, monitoring, and controlling capabilities; additionally implementation of the WIN-T Inc 3 NetOps solution supports the Army's NetOps convergence goals. WIN-T Inc 3 mature technologies will be inserted into WIN-T Inc 2 units.
