Ultra High Frequency (UHF) Legacy Extension (ULX)
Abstract
Previously funded JCTD. ULX supports the National Defense Strategy's focus on developing resilient, survivable networks from the tactical level up to strategic planning. ULX will address legacy communication systems across the DoD currently lacking resilience in congested and contested environments. These systems face near-term risk in shortfalls in UHF channel capacity; while wideband code division multiple access radios are fielded. ULX will resolve the legacy UHF shortfall by increasing total legacy UHF channel capacity worldwide. ULX also provides resiliency and eliminates legacy UHF interference through innovative ground signal processing. In FY 2021, ULX conducted two technical demonstrations and conducted a military utility assessment. ULX will transition to the Mobile User Objective System (MUOS) Program of Record. ULX will complete in FY 2022.
