Global Command and Control System - Maritime (GCCS-M) Segments and SKYCAP Assured IP Software and their Application in Joint/Combined Expeditionary Operations: A Study in Evolving Operational Concepts and Networks.

Abstract

The Navy Program Executive Office (C4I and Space) PMW-170 has been at the forefront of new efforts to improve UHF SATCOM bandwidth utilization of existing satellite communications assets. This effort is synchronized with the Navy's transition of legacy information exchange (IXS) circuits to modern IP network based applications. The Assured IP (AIP) project, started by PMW-179 and now managed by PMW-760, is responsible for coordinating multiple projects and programs-of-records (PORs) in order to accomplish IXS-to-IP modernization. SkyCAP is one of the transport protocols being considered by the Assured IP project as described in this document.
