Manpack Radio

Abstract

The MP radio is a NSA certified Type 1 radio used for transmission of up to SECRET information. MP is capable of providing two simultaneous channels of secure voice and data communications using SINCGARS, SRW, and Demand Assigned Multiple Access Satellite Communication. Future operational capabilities include the Mobile User Objective System (MUOS) waveform. The MP provides range extension and connects soldiers in the lower tier network to the mid-tier network. It is interoperable with legacy waveforms and capable of route and retransmission and cross-banding. The Manpack provides networking waveforms connectivity, Networked LOS / BLOS voice and data communications. The SFF-B is a two-channel embedded radio. It is a NSA certified Type 1 radio used for transmission of up to SECRET information. SFF-B was originally designed to meet Nett Warrior Radio requirements. It would be embedded into the Nett Warrior leader ensemble (platoon leader, platoon sergeant, squad leader, and team leader). The current focus for SFF-B is for use in Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs).
