1 DISTRIBUTION STATEMENT A. Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited. The Future of C4ISR 09 Apr 2014 Dr. Paul Zablocky CERDEC, Space & Terrestrial Communications Directorate Director (SES)

2 Communications-Electronics Research, Development and Engineering Center Mission: To develop and integrate Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance (C4ISR) Technologies that enable Information and Cyber Dominance and Decisive Lethality for the Networked Warfighter Vision: To employ the imagination and innovation of this nation s brightest professionals to provide America s brave sons and daughters with the most effective solutions to ensure mission success and their safe return home 2

3 Visualizing the CERDEC Mission Intelligence Systems Deny the Spectrum To the Enemy Targeting Enable Net Centric Operations Command the Operation Protect the Spectrum For Own Use Know the Enemy Day or Night Surveillance Systems Reconnaissance Systems Communication Systems Computers Mission Command Protect the Force Power and Energy 3

4 CERDEC C4ISR Capabilities 4

5 Bottom Line Up Front The time is right to change the way C4ISR/EW systems are engineered and integrated onto platforms in order to: Significantly reduce Size, Weight, and Power (SWAP) demands Reduce lifecycle costs Provide for rapid upgrades Increase performance and agility Enhance resilience and robustness in hostile electromagnetic environments 5

6 Lessons Learned Limited space, carrying capacity, and prime power on all platforms created significant challenges integrating C4ISR/EW systems onto platforms Adversary s ability to rapidly adapt required replacing systems rather than upgrading Interoperability problems identified after electronic systems were developed and integrated onto platforms 6

7 Challenges Mid-Tier (WNW) HNW Wideband SATCOM (NCW) Company SRW Classified PLT SRW Unclassified PLT SRW Mid-Tier (WNW) Mid-Tier (WNW) SEAM SEAM SEAM System-of-Systems Architecture The network architecture seams are self-imposed by stitching together multiple solutions individually created Communications, EW, SIGINT, and Radar systems are architected separately although they are competing for similar resources (SWAP, Spectrum, interoperability, etc) User Capacity Today's Waveforms are challenged keep pace with the evolving capacity demands Spectrum Utilization Military waveforms are not as spectrally efficient as their commercial counterparts, but commercial waveforms are not designed for the tactical environment The quantity of available spectrum for utilization depends on time and location Threat Adversaries with significant electronic capabilities (communications, electronic warfare, intelligence) and access to high-end electronic components and technologies Robustness is often traded for capacity gains Reduced budgets Network Flexibility Today s solutions do not always meet the dynamic military operations requirement 100+ disparate network management tools Acquisition The traditional process is not conducive for IT systems Technology circa 2000 is just beginning to field today 7

8 Solution Open, modular hardware and software modules reduce SWAP and lifecycle costs Directional Networking allowing greater frequency reuse, capacity, and robustness against jamming Seamless routing amongst all echelons without the need for multiple radios Direction finding, ranging and other techniques to augment position, navigation, and timing and situational awareness Common network C2 and Common situational network awareness C2 and situational awareness Adversary Command Post Software defined capability allows for rapid upgrades Command and Control (C2) Electronic Warfare (EW) Platform specific A-Kit with platform independent B-kit IED protection leveraging directional antennas and multiple platforms IED Networked and synchronized platforms provide extended range and resilience while leveraging commercial technology 8

9 Today Re-Architecturing C4ISR/EWFront Midterm Future VICTORY Data Bus Open Modular RF System Individual systems with a bring your own integration strategy. Evolving towards an architecture that provides a integrated systems-of-systems capability across all platforms The C4ISR network as a weapon providing collaborative and autonomous Networking solutions across all platforms Modular Radio (EW/COMM/PNT) Augmented Reality Glasses WPAN 9

10 Custom Installed A-Kit with Common Interfaces A-Kit items integrated during vehicle production or refit Low data rate bus High data rate bus Expandable Backplane Products Vehicle specific electronics architecture Electronics chassis and topology specification Added to VICTORY standard RF distribution network augmentation to VICTORY Added to VICTORY standard Power distribution network Thermal, Shock, Vibration, and Mounting design A-Kit Reference implementation Multiple Security Layer Bus Changes the way we acquire and integrate C4ISR systems 10

11 Custom Installed B-Kit with Common Interfaces Filters Amplifiers Switches/Relays DF Omni Directional Common Display B-Kit items integrated during vehicle production or refit Products Chassis backplane and card interfaces Processing cards, receiver cards, transmitter cards Radio Frequency (RF) switch matrix specifications Antennas (Omni, Directional), (SATCOM, Terrestrial) RF Components (Amps, Filters, etc) B-Kit Reference implementation Modules For - COMMS - EW -PNT -Applications 11

12 Software Defined C4ISR/EW Intelligent Platform A network of software configurable peripherals and sensors Victory Bus ( GigE ) High Speed Victory Bus ( Power Bus RF Cables Discretes VICTORY+ Standards based interfaces for rapid insertion of new and innovative technologies Software Defined C4ISR/EW RF Switch Network Module Filter Module Processing Module Integrated C4ISR/EW Software Development Environment 12

13 Platform Developers Software Operating Environment Expand upon JTRS Software Communications Architecture (SCA) Comms Waveform PNT Waveform EW Waveform Create an integrated development environment Automated Resource Management Minimize Regression Testing Enable Rapid Upgrades SCA Core Framework Operating System CORBA Board Support Packages Network Stacks and Serial Interface Services Common and Reconfigurable Radio Hardware (RF Components, Processors, Modems, Memory) Establish a common software framework to build Waveform Applications 13

14 Software Interface Development Environment Expand existing commercial IDE s Enhance libraries for C4ISR usage Add features focused on solving interoperability among Waveform Applications Expand to include software assurance and cyber needs Significantly reduce development time Decrease porting time to hardware upgrades Enable resource Simplify sharing the development between Waveform environment Applications for Waveform Applications 14

15 Cost Assessment RDT&E Increase in upfront R&D investment Increase efficiency in performing technology insertion Reduced quantity of configurations for integration onto platforms Production Reduced new equipment training Cost savings due to high volume buys for common cards Reduced number of unique support equipment O&S Reduced number of FSRs Cost savings associated with utilization of common components Reduced burden on depot maintenance Substantial Cost Savings During O&S Phase of the Life Cycle 15

16 Next Gen C4ISR/EW COE Timeline Demonstrations in FY15, FY16, and FY17 FY17 TRL 7 FY25 TRL 7 FY30 TRL 7 Today Multi-platform Cooperative Capabilities Separate Comms and EW systems with multiple RF front-end components Open Modular HW and SW Components shared across COMMS, EW, PNT, and SIGINT capabilities Automated/ Dynamic Resource Management to support software development Increasing Performance and Enabling New Capabilities while Solving C4ISR/EW Platform Integration 16

17 Summary Hardware Convergence is the first step in enabling future C4ISR dominance Solves both C4ISR SWaP and interoperability challenges Provides an affordable solution in providing C4ISR capabilities Enables rapid tech insertion for future capabilities The S&T community has a plan to demonstrate HW Convergence with increasing capability over the next few years The Army should adopt a commercial Waveform model to routinely provide networking enhancements Independent analysis highlights significant cost savings to the Army in converging sooner rather than later S&T community is paving the way for future Army C4ISR capabilities 17
