Wireless Technology for Command Control and Communications

Abstract

There are many different views on exactly what is PCS. But, the majority agree that 'integrated access,' 'personalized identification,' and 'mobile roaming' are the themes of PCS. Personalized services means that identification is not based on a terminal but instead on a person. PCS will use digital technology, standard procedures, and air interface for universal roaming. This means a tetherless connection through all the infrastructure for voice, data, image, and video services. The intensive development can be divided into the following four areas: Digital cellular or digital PCS, wireless data network services (WWAN, WLAN, WPBX), land mobile radio (LMR), and mobile satellite services (MSS). These areas characterize wireless technology in their own perspectives, possible DOD applications will be discussed in this report. Wireless technology, PCS, Digital cellular, Wireless wide area network, Wireless local area network, Land mobile radio, Mobile satellite services.
