Future Outlook
- Lincoln Laboratory will use the interim payload command-and-control capability to support the initial operation of the AEHF satellite.
- Research in Counterterror Social Network Analysis and Intent Recognition will continue. A prototype system will be developed that will help intelligence analysts process multimedia data to identify the capabilities and intent of terrorist networks.
- A field measurement campaign will be conducted as part of the Empire Challenge ISR exercise on behalf of the Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS) Program Office. It will serve as a test and evaluation event of the near-term network-centric capability of the AWACS fleet.
- Transformational Communications Satellite test beds and government-reference systems will be enhanced to permit testing of evolving contractor systems.
- Development and deployment of computer network attack and analysis tools will be undertaken to evaluate the robustness of the Army's Future Combat System and other future DoD systems.
- The Laboratory will design and develop a ground node capable of on-the-move communication with the AEHF satellite system.
Test arrangement for speech translation devices, including head and torso simulator and a translation system under test.
