Moores Law and Optimized Digital Signal Processing algorithms allow practice to

HF Automation as a Response to Complexity and Ignorancep y g

HF Communications has been something of a Black Art and therefore it has become a Lost Art known only to the persistent few ...

Link Establishment for BLOS skywave operation is hard, and historically has relied on trained operators to manage complex operating procedures to:

estimate the environmental conditions, select frequencies, determine/adapt the optimum data rate, wait through the inevitable channel outages till the next communications period, manage retransmissions of missed messages ...

HF users abandoned the medium because of the the success and comparative high-reliability of SATCOM systems, reducing the number of trained operators further

Automation: compensates for the lack of trained operators in HF enables precise, rapid, and responsive control of complex processes enables HF use by comparatively unskilled operators (or, alternatively, by


operators with different skill sets, like IT system administration)

probable adoption of MIL-STD-188-110B 6 kHz ISB modeprobable adoption of MIL-STD-188-110B 6 kHz ISB mode channel combining for non-contiguous channels

38.4 kb/s (4-channel), 57.6 kb/s (6-channel), ( ), ( ), rates as high as 128 kb/s (8-channel, 256 QAM) for surface wave ...

wide interest in the maritime community stable ground-wave modes provide non-contiguous channels with similar

performance primary impediments are frequency-management related, not the technology

higher data rates for STANAG 4539 TDMA mode (Annex D) incorporation of QAM modes from non-TDMA modes (Annex C)

STANAG 4539 - High-Speed HF circuits to 9.6 kbps BRASS currently specified using S4285 to 2.4 kbps

Summary

NATO currently uses HF: for maritime broadcast and ship-shore (ACP-127 text messaging only)HF il + ARQ (FED STD 1052+) d STANAG 4285/4539 t NAEW HF e-mail + ARQ (FED-STD-1052+) and STANAG 4285/4539 to NAEW aircraft (selective usage)

land forces voice co-ordination circuits, RATT NATO Plans to use HF:

maritime forces for IP-over-HF operationMMHS and informal e-mail

b d d t b li tiweb-access and data-base replicationadoption of ACP200 / inclusion in BRASS Enhancement Increments

airforces (via requirements for SCOPE Command Interoperability)HF e-mail + ARQ + ALE (STANAG 5066 + MIL-STD-188-141A)( )web/database access

Summary/Conclusion

The HF House Concept: provides an iconic summary of the current suite of NATO standards pertaining

to HF radio communications has served to organize and focus HF Comm requirements by: has served to organize and focus HF Comm requirements by:

EPM / non-EPM environments functional area (e.g., ALE / ALM, ARQ) legacy, emerging, and future standards

provides a road map for development provides a road-map for development allows users to match their requirements to the available/planned technologies

Growth / Renovation Issues and Challenges Operational Requirements

must-go-faster if you build it they will come

net-centric / plug & play

automated / ease of usebecause were all getting wired

and none of use can program our clocks or phones

Civil-Market Forces

Power Line Communications

our clocks or phones

a little less noise out there !

Digital Radio Mondiale

Frequency Management Challenges Well, why cant I? THEY can!!

Ive gotta get me some of that!(bandwidth!!)

Technical Capabilities / Constraints

yeah, we can do that Manage expectations/reduce disruptions


but youll have to {change, give up , add} reduce disruptions

BLOSCOMMS AHWG -Extracts from Decision Sheet of June 2004Extracts from Decision Sheet of June 2004

BLOSCOMMS AHWG plans to provide a draft HF p pHandbook by 4Q2004;

HF channel banding techniques are needed to t hi h bit t ( t 64 Kb )support higher bit rates (upto 64 Kbps);

the AHWG/1 is prepared to include IPv6 functionality into the HF STANAGs;functionality into the HF STANAGs;

improvements of VLF MSK Broadcast (STANAG 5030) HF Broadcast (STANAG 4481) based on the Digital Radio Mondiale project are being considered

Future HF Policy Workshop scheduled w/ next BLOSCOMMS AHWG Meeting
