The battlefield information transmission system (BITS) RF testbed

The wireless networks division of CECOM´s Space and Terrestrial Communications Directorate has undertaken initiatives to establish a BITS RF testbed at the Myer Center in Fort Monmouth, N.J. This facility will provide a test environment to support BITS and digitization of the battlefield for programs which require laboratory testing of combat net radio (CNR) and digital radio networks. This facility is intended to represent battlefield CNR network configurations in the context of an integrated battlefield communications system by interfacing with the wide area and local area laboratories at Fort Monmouth, as well as other Government and contractor facilities
