Anti-Jam Antenna

Abstract

Mission Command Network Modernization Implementation Plan - Line of Effort 1, 17 Apr 2018. The Anti-Jam Antenna System (AJAS) provides point protection by steering electronic nulls at interference sources or beams at valid signal sources. This enables continuous Global Positioning System (GPS) signal acquisition and tracking in a navigation warfare (jamming) environment. The AJAS is tightly coupled with the Mounted Assured Positioning, Navigation and Timing System (MAPS) to provide GPS signal protection and assured PNT in challenged environments on Army tactical and combat vehicles. The AJAS integration with the MAPS will achieve performance requirements in the highest threat level conditions. 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 $8.900 million provide integration, installation, training and Soldier assessment of AJAS fielded with 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).
