Military communications remain an essential part of security operations. The technology extends from equipping military personnel with devices so they can communicate on operations, to providing centralized systems for organizing battle and security operations on land, sea, and in the air. Today, all military forces rely heavily on sophisticated electronic communications systems, with technology transfer to and from civilian communications systems, both those in use and those in development. This reliance on advanced communications will increase year on year. You and your organisation must be fully informed of these developments. For units out in the field, digital radio — such as the U.S. Military’s ambitious joint tactical radio system (JTRS) — promises improved, programmable communications links. That system extends beyond voice-only communications to include the exchange of data and video messaging during battle and security operations. For linking all these systems in reliable, high-performing and secure networks, satellite and high-bandwidth terrestrial communications will exert an increasingly sophisticated and important role in military operations from 2008 onwards. This new visiongain report, Military Communications and COTS 2008, describes both the technologies and the relevant markets in detail, along with cost-effectiveness, with relevant data and informed opinion. This information is valuable to both defence procurement operations and to relevant technology providers.
