Antenna and Hardware Technologies

Abstract

This effort matures and demonstrates low cost, power efficient communications and electronic warfare (EW) antenna technologies for terrestrial and tactical satellite ground terminals. The focus is to reduce the visual signature and cost of antennas and the number of antennas required on platforms by proving the capability to transmit and receive on multiple frequency bands. This effort also matures small form factor interference mitigation hardware for compatibility between communications and EW systems. Work accomplished under PE 0602782A/Project H92 complements this effort. In FY18 a majority of these efforts, along with several efforts currently under Communications Networking Technologies, are reported under a new thrust area entitled “Networking to Improve Maneuver and Expeditionary Operations” in order to better focus related and evolving technologies. A few of the efforts herein are reported under another new thrust area entitled “Uninterrupted Communications”.
