Abstract

Third-generation HF automatic link establishment (ALE) achieves order-of-magnitude improvements over second-generation ALE in linking speed, network size, and traffic capacity. We examine the individual contributions to this performance by several of the techniques standardized in the third generation, including synchronous operation, dwell groups, and separate calling and traffic frequencies
