NMT Resilient C3 Development
Abstract
Navy Multiband Terminal (NMT) software and hardware upgrade development is ongoing to provide Resilient Command, Control, and Communications (RC3) capabilities to pace the evolving threats to the warfighter in contested/degraded environments. The Wideband Anti-Jam Modem System (WAMS) will provide an anti-jamming capability that will counter various adversary threats. Adaptive Coding (AC) autonomously maximizes throughput in degraded or benign conditions over the Advanced Extremely High Frequency (AEHF) satellites, providing significantly more throughput than is available today in the baseline NMT. The Time of Day (TOD) capability promotes communications reliability and resiliency. When the channel is degraded due to inclimate weather or adversarial action, TOD enables the system to automatically transition to a more robust, lower code rate resulting in ability to maintain satellite link thereby allowing the fleet to preserve communications. Technology Insertion, studies and implementation is necessary for military satellite communications systems development to support emerging technologies.
