Analysis of Over-the-Horizon Tactical Communications in an Immature Theater

Abstract

This qualitative research in the field of over-the-horizon (OTH) voice communications, for maneuver forces at echelons below division, aims to use grounded theory and axial coding to address feasibility for increasing the military's tactical OTH capabilities. Using the variables of frequency bands, capacity, costs, and mobility, the research examines both alternate portions of the electromagnetic spectrum and rising technologies in order to develop an emerging theory for how OTH capabilities will increase in the future.
