FCS Communications Technology for the Objective Force
نویسنده
چکیده
As part of its technology development program for the Army’s Future Combat System (FCS), the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has been working to develop the enabling communications technology needed to revolutionize the Army’s future land force into a network centric force capable of operation at a level of synchronization, mobility, and force effectiveness which has been heretofore unachievable. Key to this network centric operation will be a scalable suite of multiband wireless, mobile adhoc networking devices which operate with directional antennas to provide significant improvements in capacity, Anti-jam, and Low Probability of Detection (LPD). This paper reviews the underlying motivation for this technology development and summarizes the numerous technology investments being made by DARPA under their FCS Communications technology program.

Household’s Food Consumption Profile during Agricultural Mitigation Period: Burkina Faso Centre-West Region Case
Background: Simplified and reliable tools for individual and household diet quality assessment have been found helpful to reduce cost of the dietary survey. The main objective of this study was to determine the household’s diet profile in the Centre-West Region of Burkina Faso. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on household food consumption using the last seven days recall. Food co...
متن کاملEmbedded Training Display Technology for the Army's Future Combat Vehicles
This paper describes an innovative solution for a low cost, compact, lightweight (i.e. <500g), see-through, deployable head-mounted projection display (HMPD) system for embedded training simulation of out-the-window (OTW) scenes for Future Combat System ground vehicles. A unique capability is that virtual images are visible only when the user is looking at strategically located screens that sim...
متن کاملMethod to extract anharmonic force constants from first principles calculations
A method for extracting force constants FCs from first principles is introduced. In principle, provided that forces are accurate enough, it can extract harmonic as well as anharmonic FCs up to any neighbor shell. Symmetries of the FCs as well as those of the lattice are used to reduce the number of parameters to be calculated. The results are illustrated for the case of the Lennard-Jones potent...
متن کاملMulti-objective Pareto optimization of bone drilling process using NSGA II algorithm
Bone drilling process is one the most common processes in orthopedic surgeries and bone breakages treatment. It is also very frequent in dentistry and bone sampling operations. Bone is a complex material and the machining process itself is sensitive so bone drilling is one of the most important, common and sensitive processes in Biomedical Engineering field. Orthopedic surgeries can be improved...
متن کاملSuitability of Agent-Based Systems for Command and Control in Fault-Tolerant, Safety-Critical Responsive Decision Networks
We assess the novelty and maturity of software (SW) agent-based systems (ABS) for the Future Combat System (FCS) concept. The concept consists of troops, vehicles, communications, and weapon systems viewed as a “system of systems” [including net-centric command and control (C) capabilities]. In contrast to a centralized, or platformbased architecture, FCS avoids decision-making/execution bottle...
