MNL+ Legacy:
CMN – provides multiple time slots for the
tactical user
TSR – improves network efficiency for the
high use assets
DMN – dynamic switching between nets
SNR/HFIP – provides capabilities to interoperate
with older platforms & coalition partners
• MNH meets ISR bandwidth needs with
communications network

Summary: Focus Areas
• Tactical Level data links –
– Assess current capabilities against current and future mission requirements
– Improving cross-banding capability to meet C2 needs
– Investigate capabilities and requirements supporting other mission areas, i.e.
NTISR
• High Band width networking –
– MNH (Ku-band), backwards compatible with current TCDLs
– Diversified antenna configurations
– Application of commercial standards, i.e. Wi-Fi/Max, to the tactical edge
• Mobile Ad-hoc Net working (MANET) – dynamic networking
– Networking Emulation capability to all the services
– network performance monitoring tools and network management services for the
tactical edge
• Peer to Peer – networking in-depth
