Army Integration Effort Phase 1: Integrate existing GW configuration with Army EPLRS and FBCB2. Intent is to provide a viable “solution” to address US Army’s EPLRS/FBCB2 extended range requirement. Beyond Line of Sight US Army EPLRS Community US Army EPLRS Community
Army Integration Effort Phase 2: Integrate existing GW configuration with Army EPLRS and extend “data pipe” from USMC Battalion EPLRS community to US Army Brigade EPLRS community. Intent is to create network extensions to allow TCP/IP communications between two units in a joint environment. USMC EPLRS Community Beyond Line of Sight US Army EPLRS Community
Army Integration Effort Phase 3: Utilize “data pipe” from USMC Battalion EPLRS community to US Army Brigade EPLRS community to enable passing of Situational Awareness (SA) and Position Location Information (PLI) utilizing each service’s C2 system. Intent is to utilize network extensions to enable C2PC and FBCB2 interoperability. C2PC FBCB2 USMC EPLRS Community Beyond Line of Sight US Army EPLRS Community
Army Integration Effort Phase 4: Integration of different EPLRS communities into one GW that accomplishes interoperability piece and allows two units to work side by side with common GW. C2PC or FBCB2 Task Force CP FBCB2 C2PC USMC Battalion EPLRS Community US Army Brigade EPLRS Community
FBCB2 3.6x with EPLRS 11.3 Planned EPLRS fragmentation – not automatically “self-healing” capability Only two fragments, and both fragments share the same Bde-wide SA and C2 needlines If time permits, will relax some of these Assumptions for Phase 1
1-10 Cav unit is well forward of DTAC/4th Brigade, so that it has lost Bde-wide EPLRS connectivity A company of 1BN22 is well forward of 1BDE and 1BN22, so that it has lost Btn-local and Bde-wide EPLRS connectivity Scenarios for Phase 1
