Trends in C3 System Technology

Abstract

This paper gives an overview of technologies considered pertinent to Command, Control and Communications (C3) systems within the next 15 years. The style of the document is tailored deliberately for the non-specialist community. The report draws primary from research being conducted within DSTO, and mentions significant world trends. The report discusses significant near-term issues influencing C3 system design. It proposes the functionality and architecture for a future C3 system, and then maps the technologies which could support migration to such a proposed future C3 system. Command and control, Communications Networks, C3 Architecture, C3 Systems
