Abstract

This paper presents an advanced capability technology demonstration (ACTD) proposed by Harris Corporation for the DoD ELB Program Office which will provide a high capacity (T3) wireless WAN. The ACTD will develop a virtual information network which will make the BG/ARG appear as a single ship to the embarked staff and provide HDR connectivity between afloat and ashore command centers
