An Evaluation of the RF LOS/BLOS Communications Enhancements Deployed with USS BOXER Amphibious Ready Group.

Abstract

This report presents the results of one of three operational deployments of products produced by the Expeditionary Warfare Communications Enhancement Project (ExWAR). ExWAR supports the re-structuring of joint command and control by introducing existing commercial and government products into line-of-sight (LOS) and beyond line-of-sight (BLOS), high-frequency (HF) and ultra- high-frequency (UHF) voice radio circuits. The program provides TCP/IP-based data communication linking units of the Amphibious Ready Group (ARG), including the smallest shore-based components of the Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU). This report discusses the empirical research conducted by the USS BOXER ARG.
