Global Broadcast Service (GBS)

Abstract

GBS continues A3M efforts towards meeting integration and mission requirements for Combat Communications users. This includes completing A3M software/firmware updates and integrating the modem into the GBS receive suites, which will allow the modem to be compatible with the GBS legacy broadcast. This ensures the 2,000+ worldwide GBS users continue to have access to continuous, one-way, high-speed, high-volume flow of classified and unclassified intelligence products (full motion video, imagery, data, weather, etc.) during the 5-year fielding timeline. Upon fielding completion, GBS users will transition to a PATS broadcast. This will fulfill the GBS TRANSEC requirement in the GBS JORD-III (2005) and Committee on National Security Systems (CNSS) Policy No. 12/CNSS Instruction No.1200. This solution also supports the Chief Space Operations' SATCOM Vision for improved resiliency and agility.
