Integrated Tactical Network/Enterprise Network
Abstract
This funding line is directly aligned to the Army Network Modernization Priority. Project BT5, Integrated Tactical Network/Enterprise Network (ITN/IEN), is directly aligned to the Army Network Modernization Strategy Line of Effort 1 (LOE 1), Unified Network. These efforts support advanced component development activities that are aligned to the Army's Tactical Network Capability Set development and fielding plans. This project enables a converged Mission Command Network that operates seamlessly worldwide and in any environment. It includes the development of a standards- based network architecture that unifies enterprise and deployed network capabilities and features a unified transport layer, network operations and other enabling functions that allows integration of disparate networks. The Army network will provide resiliency through path diversity and dynamic routing to ensure tactical units can communicate in hostile environments. It will provide multiple ways to communicate and give commanders the ability to have a network that delivers the right information and data at the right time during operations. It fully incorporates cyber and electronic warfare capabilities that support the employment of the network as a weapon system. FY 2024 funding will be used to inform design decisions for future tactical network capability sets in the areas of resilient wideband satellite communications capabilities, non-traditional waveforms, narrowband waveforms, and implementation of Automated Primary Alternate Contingency and Emergency (PACE) communications through evaluation and technical maturation. Funds also support identification, maturation, demonstration, and evaluation of Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 6+ systems and subsystem components including resilient, alternate Beyond Line of Site (BLOS) capability in support of legacy high frequency waveforms. Funds also support development of Cyber Electromagnetic Activities (CEMA) situational understanding and operations Interoperability functions. Additionally, funds support development of a modular open standards systems architecture. Successful solutions identified through evaluation in a high fidelity and realistic operating environment will be transitioned to Programs of Record for integration and fielding. Funds will also support integration with solutions identified in other Modernization Cross Functional Team (CFT) efforts to ensure network dependencies are addressed. Funds will support highly scalable and robust waveforms with simplified network management for operations in congested or contested environments.
