Network Communications Analysis
Abstract
The Department made the decision to sunset the initial thrust of this program in FY 2014. Tactical Mobile Networking, Spectrum Management Tools and Analysis, and Tactical Networking Evolution and Expansion projects completed the final tasks as listed below. Currently fielded satellite communications (SATCOM), terrestrial, and Tactical Data Links (TDLs) would be adversely effected in operations in Anti-Access/Area-Denial (A2/AD) environments. Therefore, in FY 2016 the Network Communications Capability Program (NCCP) will return with a new focus that seeks to enable the development and deployment of Joint robust and assured communications. Robust Tactical Data Links Modernization (RTDLM) – In a contested environment, especially when conducting forward operations, platforms face a significant electronic warfare threat. Improvements in tactical communication systems for Joint airborne networking are required to mitigate advances in threat electronic warfare systems. The RTDLM project will develop advanced technologies to address these needs, design and build prototype systems to verify the technology in operationally relevant environments against representative threats, and manage the migration and transition of these technologies to service platforms, radios, and other combat mission systems.
