8 MIDS JTRS Accomplishments/Plans Wireless, jam-resistant and secure information system for Link 16/J-Voice, TACAN, and other Waveforms to Airborne, Ground, and Maritime Warfighting Platforms MIDS JTRS Slide 8

9 MIDS JTRS and Link 16 CMN-4 CMN-4 is a Link 16 enhancement to MIDS JTRS Allows Link 16 reception from any combination of 4 nets or participants simultaneously Form/fit/function replacement for MIDS-LVT or MIDS JTRS Core terminal CMN-4 allows for more efficient use of the Link-16 Network and additional network designs for additional participants Uses the Four Receiver/Synthesizers to receive the 1st-4th transmissions Concurrent Contention Receive (CCR) Link 16 CMN-4 Funded and in development for MIDS JTRS Concurrent Multi-Netting (CMN) Capability to receive on multiple net numbers (nets) simultaneously Concurrent Contention Receive (CCR) Capability to receive multiple transmissions in a single timeslot simultaneously MIDS JTRS CMN-4 provides for more efficient Link 16 network Slide 9

10 MIDS on Hawkeye (Same) JTIDS Class 2 High Power Amplifier No issues (Change) JTIDS Class 2 Data Processor Group and Receiver/Transmitter Obsolete, unable to produce, waning ability to support (Insert) MIDS LVT Goal: MIDS LVT that acts like a JTIDS Class 2 Currently in production, fully supported (New) Interface Adapter Weapons Replaceable Assembly Allows MIDS LVT to appear as a JTIDS Class 2 No platform host hardware or software changes necessary Cryptographic key fill method would change Looks like a MIDS LVT, performs like a JTIDS Class 2 Slide 10

11 MIDS on Hawkeye Changes Interface Module Converts MIDS LVT Host Interface to JTIDS Class 2 TACAN Voice Control Discretes Suppression / Indicator Signals JTIDS HPA Interface Converts between MIDS LVT and JTIDS Class 2 host interface messages Slide 11
