The U.S. Navy has granted a contract amendment to General Dynamics Mission Systems to enhance high-frequency (HF) communication capabilities for the Navy’s four-channel, AN/USC-61(C) Digital Modular Radios (DMR). The 3G High-frequency 3rd Generation Automatic Link Establishment (ALE) boosts transmission speeds from radio to radio by 24% and diminishes interference and static that can impede clear, high-quality voice communications. It also facilitates improved communication among U.S. and allied forces, while providing backup for satellite communications (SATCOM) when SATCOM networks are overloaded or not accessible.
“This enhanced HF capability offers sailors and their leaders a communications edge with increased reliability and higher data capacity, especially when beyond line of sight networks are not available,” stated Paul Parent, a vice president at General Dynamics Mission Systems. “DMR serves as a more effective substitute for satellite communications in areas where satellite connectivity or capacity is restricted or unavailable.”
General Dynamics’ software-defined DMR radios are pivotal for the Navy’s mission-critical communication networks aboard vessels and submarines. They deliver a comprehensive range of military voice and data communication channels, including Ultra-High Frequency satellite networks, Very High Frequency and Line of Sight radios, single-channel Ground and Airborne Radio Systems (SINCGARS), and various tactical radios. These radios are also outfitted with the General Dynamics Advanced Infosec Machine (AIM) encryption chip, certified by NSA to securely transmit classified information at the Type 1 – Top Secret level and below. Furthermore, the radios can function simultaneously at multiple security tiers across each of the four channels.
The MUOS waveform has recently been incorporated into DMR to markedly improve the Navy’s beyond line of sight voice and data communications by linking to the new Mobile User Objective System satellite communications network.
General Dynamics Mission System’s radio offerings ensure secure voice and data communications for both U.S. and global military as well as government agency clients. The company also provides long-term evolution (LTE) broadband communication networks tailored for law enforcement, emergency responders, and others who require reliable connectivity and communication capabilities anytime, anywhere.
