Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have been widely applied in various fields, including but not limited to military, industry, and agriculture. But UAVs also confront severe security threats, which slows down their wide application. Current research mainly focuses on the of a single UAV system, while paying little attention UAV-related communications, especially physical network layers. Thus, it ...

This paper describes a civilian WLAN standard adaptation for military purposes. The analysis contains both possible modifications of COTS equipment and construction of brand new solutions, based on existing VLSI integrated circuits. The main goal of each adaptation is utilization of military frequency bands and increase of output power. The paper also contains a description of own designed WLAN...

Future military communications systems are expected to exchange information in a seamless and reliable manner across heterogeneous networks composed of both jixed, wired nodes and mobile, wireless nodes. While commercial protocols such as TCP/IP have improved ihe seamiessness of military communications systems, the use of TCP/IP in the mobile, wireless environment for which it was not designed ...

A current major focus in the DoD involves the integration of information across the different military branches for operations. Network-centric information methods will enable efficiencies through the integration of best-of-breed software and hardware from each branch of the military, together with the latest advances from government laboratories and the private sector. Information merging will...

The Global Information Grid (GIG) is the military’s computer and communications network which supports the myriad of military missions. Since military missions are highly planned, it is possible to collect knowledge of future conditions that could be of use to network designers whose goals include optimizing and protecting the GIG. This advanced knowledge includes which assets will be involved,...
