Abstract :
The demand for increased bandwidth, standardization on Internet protocol, and focus on network-centric operations in DoD communications have created a need for highspeed mesh networks. Effort is underway to address this need with JTRS CDL. In addition to JTRS compliance, JTRS CDL will provide new waveforms and networking capability to create RF networks with arbitrary topology that run at very high speed. This paper addresses the concept and the challenges that must be solved to define and implement it.
