5G Cross Functional Team (CFT) Support

Abstract

Fifth generation (5G) wireless networking is a suite of transformational communications technologies that are key enablers for U.S. defense modernization, and fundamental to all aspects of modem warfare. U.S. primacy in the great power competition rests on its ability to lead and sustain the competitive advantage in communications networks, standards, and platform technologies that underpin our global systems of exchange - our strategic center of gravity. Increasingly capable peer adversaries threaten U.S. strategic, tactical, and commercial networks that share a common communications technology base. To ensure DoD can operate effectively anywhere and anytime, including in congested and contested spectrum and on compromised networks, DoD is accelerating adoption of 5G and next generation wireless networking technologies. DoD must advance and master 5G technologies to enable U.S. military superiority and ensure U.S. national security, homeland security, and economic security.
