Mounted A-PNT
Abstract
Mission Command Network Modernization Implementation Plan - Line of Effort 1, 17 Apr 2018. The Mounted Assured Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) System (MAPS) provides assured PNT data, is a key enabler, and a cross cutting capability for Army ground maneuver forces to execute their mission in support of the Network Enabling Function. Army ground maneuver Forces require access to assured PNT under conditions where space-based PNT (e.g. Global Positioning System (GPS)) may be limited or denied by fusing non-Radio Frequency (RF) sensors with GPS. It distributes assured PNT data to tactical command, communication and control systems on Army tactical and combat vehicles. The current GPS capability is a fixed frequency system which is vulnerable to current and emerging threats and field condition. The MAPS is a scalable, upgradable system mounted on Army ground force platforms. It fuses GPS with complimentary navigation and timing technologies to provide assured PNT to client systems and platforms. The MAPS distributes PNT data to multiple systems directly and via the network, reducing the dependency on multiple GPS receiver devices on a single platform. In order to achieve performance requirements in the highest threat level conditions, an Anti-Jam Antenna will be integrated with the MAPS. These two products each provide a degree of A-PNT protection. Integrated together, however, these two products will close the capability gap and achieve the desired performance. FY 2020 Base funds, in the amount of $66.471 million, are provided for integration, installation, training and Soldier assessment of MAPS on selected combat vehicles and command, control and communication systems. Integration activities are required for 81 unique platforms and 27 client systems based on the current basis of issue (BOI). In addition, FY2020 Base funds under PE 1206120A (project FK1) in the amount of $24.313 million are to be realigned to support MAPS acceleration and to align MAPS to Army Modernization priorities.
