Book Synopsis Procurement of DSCS II Satellites F-17 and F-18 by :
Download or read book Procurement of DSCS II Satellites F-17 and F-18 written by and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A review was made of the plan to purchase two satellites for the Defense Satellite Communications System (DSCS) Phase II program. The requirement of the Department of Defense for the Phase II satellites is not justified. The Defense Communications Agency predicted that a gap might occur in communications before DSCS Phase III satellites are scheduled to be in orbit. The problem with this theory, however, is that the two Phase II satellites could not be launched in time to fill any gap between the two phases. The proposed costs for the two Phase II satellites and launch associated costs are about $103.8 million. The two Phase II satellites could conceivably serve a backup role in the event the Phase III experience turns out to be less reliable than current predictions; however, the Air Force maintains that the Phase III satellites' estimated production schedule is attainable. It appears, therefore, that the procurement of the two Phase II satellites is not needed.
Book Synopsis Military Satellite Communications by : U S Government Accountability Office (G
Download or read book Military Satellite Communications written by U S Government Accountability Office (G and published by BiblioGov. This book was released on 2013-07 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed the Department of Defense's (DOD) plans for military communications satellites, focusing on: (1) alternatives contained in its 1991 military satellite communications architecture study; (2) development of low-cost technologies for future satellite systems; and (3) plans to implement follow-on satellite acquisitions. GAO found that: (1) the DOD study identified 12 alternatives for its communications satellite needs; (2) DOD chose the second-highest-cost alternative because of high mission supportability and the low to moderate program and system transition risk; (3) other alternatives, specifically the common bus designs, could satisfy DOD communications requirements at a significantly lower cost; (4) DOD lacks a coordinated process to implement modern satellite technology; (5) DOD development of the dual common bus technology is at a more advanced stage than single common bus technology development; (6) DOD could introduce modern technology into its defense satellite communications system plans by including a dual common bus capability and revising launch schedules to avoid an excessive number of satellites in orbit at any one time; and (7) DOD could replace its Milstar satellites with the dual common bus design and reduce the costs of the other satellite systems by inserting modern technology into its existing communications systems.

Download or read book Defense Satellite Communications: Alternative to DOD's Satellite Replacement Plan Would be Less Costly written by and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We reviewed the Department of Defense's (DOD) plan to acquire a follow on system to the Defense Satellite Communications System (DSCS). Our specific objectives were to assess DOD's long range plan to replace DSCS in fiscal year 2006 and its interim plan to replenish the DSCS constellation with satellites in the inventory, relative to satellite communication requirements. This report discusses an alternative to DOD'S long range plan that could save the government about $2.8 billion in future years if acquisition of the replacement system were accelerated to fiscal year 2003.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The US National Space Policy released by the president in 2006 states that the US government should "develop space professionals." As an integral part of that endeavor, "AU-18, Space Primer", provides to the joint war fighter an unclassified resource for understanding the capabilities, organizations, and operations of space forces. This primer is a useful tool both for individuals who are not "space aware"-unacquainted with space capabilities, organizations, and operations-and for those who are "space aware," especially individuals associated with the space community, but not familiar with space capabilities, organizations, and operations outside their particular areas of expertise. It is your guide and your invitation to all the excitement and opportunity of space. Last published in 1993, this updated version of the Space Primer has been made possible by combined efforts of the Air Command and Staff College's academic year 2008 "Jointspacemindedness" and "Operational Space" research seminars, as well as select members of the academic year 2009 "Advanced Space" research seminar.

Book Synopsis Employing Commercial Satellite Communications: Wideband Investment Options for the Department of Defense by :
Download or read book Employing Commercial Satellite Communications: Wideband Investment Options for the Department of Defense written by and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Department of Defense (DoD) is considering major investments in systems that exploit information to support warfighting, and communications between users around the globe will be key to transmitting and using this information. In the near term, there are not enough military systems to satisfy projected communications demand and commercial systems will have to be used. In the future, budgetary pressures will make it difficult for the services to satisfy the projected communications demand with dedicated military assets. This report seeks to answer several questions: 1) How much of the projected demand can be met with programmed and planned military assets?; 2) Can commercial technologies, systems, or services meet the remaining needs? How do commercial communication assets compare with military assets in their ability to meet criteria important to DoD? What steps might be taken to mitigate shortfalls?; 3) What is the expected cost of providing the projected communications demand?; and, 4) What investment strategies should DoD employ to minimize the expected cost? The many categories of military communications include everything from battlefield communications between mobile users to communications between fixed sites in rear areas. Some of these communications must be survivable in a nuclear war, and others need high levels of protection from detection, interception, or jamming. Some require verv high data rates, whereas others need only low data rates. Some communications can be by wire or fiber optic cable, whereas others must use wireless means. We have examined a specific category of communications-high bandwidth, minimally protected satellite communications. This category of military demand represents roughly half of the projected military satellite capacity needs. To the extent that use of commercial systems can satisfy this need, military systems can be used for more specialized communications needing a greater level of control over their operation.
Book Synopsis Space Capstone Publication Spacepower by : Us Government United States Space Force
Download or read book Space Capstone Publication Spacepower written by Us Government United States Space Force and published by . This book was released on 2020-08-11 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, Space Capstone Publication Spacepower: Doctrine for Space Forces, is capstone doctrine for the United States Space Force and represents our Service's first articulation of an independent theory of spacepower. This publication answers why spacepower is vital for our Nation, how military spacepower is employed, who military space forces are, and what military space forces value. In short, this capstone document is the foundation of our professional body of knowledge as we forge an independent military Service committed to space operations. Like all doctrine, the SCP remains subject to the policies and strategies that govern its employment. Military spacepower has deterrent and coercive capacities - it provides independent options for National and Joint leadership but achieves its greatest potential when integrated with other forms of military power. As we grow spacepower theory and doctrine, we must do so in a way that fosters greater integration with the Air Force, Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard. It is only by achieving true integration and interdependence that we can hope to unlock spacepower's full potential.

Download or read book The Evolution of Untethered Communications written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1998-01-01 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to a request from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, the committee studied a range of issues to help identify what strategies the Department of Defense might follow to meet its need for flexible, rapidly deployable communications systems. Taking into account the military's particular requirements for security, interoperability, and other capabilities as well as the extent to which commercial technology development can be expected to support these and related needs, the book recommends systems and component research as well as organizational changes to help the DOD field state-of-the-art, cost-effective untethered communications systems. In addition to advising DARPA on where its investment in information technology for mobile wireless communications systems can have the greatest impact, the book explores the evolution of wireless technology, the often fruitful synergy between commercial and military research and development efforts, and the technical challenges still to be overcome in making the dream of "anytime, anywhere" communications a reality.
