Wireless Distributed Multimedia Communications Networks for the Digital Battlefield Volume 1

Abstract

The Focused Research Initiative (FRI) group from Purdue University, the University of Illinois, the University of Michigan, Hughes Defense Communications (formerly Magnavox), and Hughes Network Systems (HNS) began work in July of 1995. Technical efforts are concentrated on multimedia wireless communication links, routing and congestion control, adaptive channel coding, adaptive antenna arrays, and the interface to and use of high speed networks. The FRI Group is uniquely integrating several Department of Defense Programs and the research and educational programs at three major universities, while achieving the benefits of collaboration with industry and the military: The FRI program has fostered and encouraged collaboration and technology exchange among the universities, industrial research groups, and the Army laboratories. Progress has occurred in the area of determining military requirements and using those requirements to guide basic research. Progress in the five areas of concentration is outlined in this Interim Progress Report.
