Norman Jones Senior Engineer 13 Jan 2005 Purpose and Overview Evolutionary Implementation of Net-Centric,Transfmt Comms Evolutionary TC Architecture Based Upon EoIP Approach for Transformational Communications IP Network Management Traditional SATCOM based upon serial interface FDMA/SCPC involves MC of discrete, nailed up SATCOM links IP SATCOM modems include routing functionality for BW on demand and use a central controller which has oversight of all the deployed modems in the network Controller has real time monitoring and control over the modems The network operations centers can have visibility into SATCOM operations Real time and historical performance data Consolidated control of voice/data/video convergence router and IP modems is possible Advantage for disasters: deployed operator’s tasks are greatly simplified IP SATCOM Modems Traditional muxes/modems are circuit based with TDMs and serial interface SATCOM modems Circuits over nailed up SATCOM links Transformational Comms/EoIP approach can use routers and IP modems and Defense Information System Network Router to process converged voice/data/video user traffic SATCOM modem with IP interface Embedded security aspects Centralized management for simple deployed operations Efficient use of scarce, expensive space segment by providing bandwidth on demand over SATCOM Simplify operations by EoIP Seamless Global Information Grid (GIG) interface Test Results and Plans Two purposes: Verify that the technology is operationally viable Maintain partnership with the users/military Services DISA, others conduct tests in the lab to assess technology Follow on tests are conducted in a partnership with the military Services Test in operational type environment as part of military Service test/exercise Example of Recent Military Test Using EoIP QOS for IP based Technology for Deployed Warfighters Migration to packet technology requires fulfillment of warfighter attributes Traffic can have different priorities and attri
