Net Centric Systems for Tactical Environments
Carmichael, Bill
ORGANIZER: Carmichael, Bill
In a tactical environment networked communication systems are stressed by channel bandwidth and throughput limitations, channel impairments, and impairments introduced by mobility. Mobile ad hoc networks offer one class of solution – self-forming, self-healing, distributed systems. The papers in this session address these complex problems. Topics include: the use of Model Driven Design and performance simulation in network validation and verification; self-organization and clustering in mobile ad hoc networks; the Army’s PILSNER program; secure content-based routing; the application of OSPF to large tactical networks; predictable network performance; and, frequency deconfliction on the tactical battlefield.
