10. NATO UNCLASSIFIED10 Software Defined Radio (SDR)  NNEC implications:  Significant use of wireless network elements  Greater interconnection e.g. wireless and fixed; NATO and National systems;  Convergence to network technologies;  Granularity of interoperability down to lowest echelon  SDR is not a waveform !  SDR is a radio implementation which enhances:  Interoperability – ‘copying’ software definitions between radios  - backwards compatibility plus fast deployment of future waveforms  Networking at lowest levels and between national systems  Civil – Military Interoperation: Software definitions of civil radios  Software Communications Architecture (SCA)  Common architecture for SDR (h/w & s/w)  used by current SDR procurements e.g. JTRS  NATO nations and industry have adopted SCA  NATO addressing alliance and coalition requirements for SCA  Coherence of NATO plans and SDR capabilities  Maximising benefits of SDR to enable NNEC  New NATO waveforms optimised for SDR …. an enabler for NNEC

11. NATO UNCLASSIFIED11 TACOMS Post 2000  Thirteen (13) nations signed an MoU  To provide the standards (STANAGs) for communication interoperability in the Land Combat Zone.  Based on commercial technology  Service-based architecture (formally referred to as Service Oriented Architecture - SOA)  Mobility support  Standards for:  Interfaces (IOP, UTAP, ENAP)  QoS concept  Network services (directory, routing, addressing, naming, call handling)
