Abstract

The Radio Frequency Mission Planner (RFMP) provides analysis and simulation of communication links based on RF propagation models to more accurately assess performance and capability of transmitters and receivers for command and control warfare (C2W) missions. RFMP processing is dependent on equipment parameters, environmental factors, topography, and force structure. Two and three dimensional displays of results allow an operator to quickly evaluate the RF propagation possibilities for determining the probability of maintaining connections.<>
