milcom.org2 Balancing commercial and defense technologies

dear mIlcom 2013 partIcIpantS, On behalf of the MILCOM Conference Board and BAE Systems, I’d like to welcome you to beautiful San Diego for MILCOM 2013. We’re excited to be here with all of you -- to learn, share, and network at the world’s premier international conference and exposition for military communications. This week, enjoy a full program of keynote speakers, technical sessions,panel discussions, paper presentations, and exhibits -- and hopefully the great weather.

We have a unique appreciation of MILCOM 2013 following last year’s unfortunate cancellation, and I’d like to acknowledge the ongoing dedication of both AFCEA International and IEEE Communications Society to MILCOM’s mission. For 32 years, these renowned organizations have shared a commitment to bring together government, military, industry, and academia for education, collaboration, and the betterment of military communications.

The essence of MILCOM resonates in the theme of this year’s show -- Balancing Commercial and Defense Technologies. In a time when we are often challenged to do more with less, it’s more important than ever that we explore, define, and leverage technologies from every talent available in our communications community.

This year’s show features some very special keynote speakers from the communications industry: Dr. Irwin Jacobs, founding Chairman and CEO Emeritus of Qualcomm and Mr. Larry Payne, Vice President, U.S. Federal, Cisco Systems. Representing MITRE Corporation is President and CEO, Mr. Alfred Grasso. And we are honored to have LtGen John Toolan, Jr., USMC Commanding General, 1 Marine Expeditionary Force and MajGen Steven Busby, USMC Commanding General, Third Marine Aircraft Wing, from the United States Marine Corps.

You’ll notice that MILCOM 2013 brings more opportunities for education than ever before, with over 200 Continuing Education Units (CEUs) approved by both IEEE and CompTIA as well as nearly 50 Certification Maintenance Units (CMUs) approved by GIAC. Take a full-day training class or attend panels and tutorials to earn credits. With our partner MITRE, we are also hosting a technical program that includes 14 tutorials and 25 plenary and technical panels, as well as more than 300 paper presentations by some of the world’s brightest minds.

Please take time to explore the exhibit hall floor where more than 200 companies have come to share leading-edge products and technologies that can provide reliable solutions to the mission-critical challenges faced by today’s armed forces.

BAE Systems is honored to host MILCOM 2013. We are inspired by the innovation and creativity gathered here in San Diego with one purpose, one goal, and one mission -- to support the communication needs of our allied forces across the globe.

Sincerely,

Joe Senftle

Over the last 10 years warfighters received a massive influx of communications and networking capabilities over and above their pre-war authorizations. Combatant commanders submitted a host of Joint Urgent Operational Needs Statements which resulted in accelerated deliveries of capabilities from programs of record; modifications to in-service equipment; and procurements of commercial capabilities to meet operational needs. As the values of new capabilities were validated by warfighter experience, standard packages of theater-provided communications gear were acquired for issue to rotational units. These packages included a mix of military and commercial radios, networks, data transport capabilities, automation, audio/visual kits, end user devices, and specialty terminals to interface with external sources. In addition, new networks were developed to improve interoperability with coalition forces. A panel of experts with personal experience in employing these communications and networking technologies in combat will discuss their insights, lessons learned, and recommendations for acquisition, employment, retention, refreshment, sustainment, and integration of military and commercial communications capabilities provided to warfighting units.

Mr. David Madden, Director, Military Satellite Communications (MILSATCOM) Systems Directorate, Space and Missile Systems Center, Air Force Space Command

Over the past two decades of intense military conflict, SATCOM has emerged as an indispensable element of command and control and situational awareness. With this increased dependence, the threat of denying these SATCOM links is of increased concern. At the same time, the protected community is looking at increased disaggregation between strategic and tactical missions, architecture resiliency, and system affordability. In this light, what is the future of protected and contested SATCOM for conventional / tactical forces, and how does Joint Aerial Layer Networking contribute to more robust and reliable communications for the warfighter? And how do we provide assured communications capabilities in a timely and affordable fashion? A panel of SATCOM experts will address these questions and related issues.

Revolutionary advances in information technology continue to transform the world. The emerging Internet of Everything and convergence of Big Data, Analytics, Virtualization, Cloud, Social, and Mobile technologies are enabling ubiquitous connectivity, collaboration, and digital relationships. Military forces are moving into a hybrid operating environment combining commercial and military infrastructures and adopting new services, applications, and most notably, mobile devices. Global connectivity offers exciting opportunities, but it also increases dependencies and vulnerabilities. Malevolent actors on the world stage using increasingly sophisticated and persistent digital tools and malware pose a constant threat. The explosion in use of mobile devices and networks for business, personal, and military purposes has led to "Bring Your Own Device" and "Bring Your Own App" practices which complicate the cyber security challenge. A panel of experts will address the issues and challenges of cyber security in an increasingly interconnected and mobile information technology environment.

Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the Technical Program Committee I want to offer you a warm welcome to MILCOM 2013. The Technical Program team has been working for over 2 years to bring to you this outstanding program of over 300 papers, tutorials, panel sessions, and concurrent IEEE courses.

We live in a world of economic challenges, sequestration, asymmetric warfare, changing alliances, and global uncertainty. At the same time that same world also offers HD television, smart phones, 4G networks, cloud computing, and big data.

Our collective challenge as communicators is to develop and field capabilities that provide for national security yet stay within the new budget realities. This means we must be cognizant of and leverage all emerging technologies. The collective research and development work being performed globally by commercial industry exceeds by far the efforts that nations can spend on their defense technologies. This advantage in investment also means that commercial technology can evolve faster than defense technology. At the same time, there are certain key areas where nations must develop technologies that are unique to national interests.

We selected our theme this year, Balancing Commercial and Defense Technologies, with this in mind. Our technical program has been designed to offer rich insights into both and to demonstrate how they can and must be leveraged to meet our goals. I hope you will find the program enlightening and rewarding. Further, I urge you to contribute to the value of our program by engaging our presenters, challenging them with questions and ideas that they may not have considered. Collectively, we make the experience far richer.

Finally, I would like to thank the many people who have made the Technical Program a reality. Much work has and is being done behind the scenes by volunteers too numerous to mention who have contributed to making this technical program reach the level of excellence it has. Thank you!

Once again, I sincerely hope you enjoy your time here in San Diego.

Regards,

Marc Richard MILCOM 2013 Technical Program Chair The MITRE Corporation

Evolving DoD operational support requirements call for a more robust, higher capacity, interoperable communications infrastructure to support evolving DoD operational requirements. David Narkevicius of OSD NII states: “In partnership with Industry, the Department is working to help develop future communications capabilities. Efforts like the DirecNet™ Task Force teaming across industry are working to provide new communications capabilities offering interoperable, flexible, high bandwidth communications with a structure to optimize competition for cost savings to the Department.” The Open Group DirecNet™ Task Force is an industry-led consortium to develop a vendor neutral, open interoperability standard for a next generation waveform. The waveform will be IP-enabled, support the use of directional high bandwidth links, and the use of ad hoc mobile mesh networking. A key objective of the Task Force is to bring the advantages of commercial interoperability and standards development processes into the Government arena. This panel will discuss the DirecNet vision, waveform requirements drivers, heterogeneous networking across legacy systems and its current development status.

While there has been much progress in finding the Shannon capacity limits of wireless single and multiuser channels, there is a limited understanding about these capacity limits for wireless networks, even with simple models. Moreover, system assumptions such as constrained energy and delay, incomplete channel and network state information, and overhead considerations require new definitions for fundamental performance limits of mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs). This panel will review some of the fundamental breakthroughs associated with fundamental performance limits of MANETs, as well as some of the remaining open challenges in the quest for developing information theoretic performance bounds for such networks.

The constant rise in probes, infiltration and attacks against computer network defenses (CND) place a significant burden on system administrators. Current policy is to notify the operations center watch officer of an event and let them manually decide upon a course of action and implement the appropriate controls/counter-measures. This man-in-the-loop response increases the human workload and increases response times, which could lead to a breach in network defenses. Automated responses could reduce the burden and reduce response times, even learning on-the-fly against ever changing tactics, yet systems owners are reluctant to take advantage of these opportunities. Are the tools immature, the business rules inadequate, or do we still need “eyes on target”?

This panel answers the following questions: What are Physically Unclonable Functions (PUFs)? What Trust issues can they (and can’t they) solve in government electronics?

The panel will begin with a description of what Physically Unclonable Functions (PUFs) are, including several types (SRAM, delay-arbiter, resistance) and implementations (ASIC vs. FPGA). The panelists will discuss what PUFs are good for, for example, where PUFs can be used to enhance trust in some portions of the supply chain, and how PUFs might be the best technology for proving the "identity" of hardware, with information assurance, anti-tamper, and anti-counterfeiting applications. What security benefits PUF technology can bring to on-chip key-storage will be answered. The panel will discuss what limitations PUFs have; i.e., what they can’t do. Finally, the question: "How secure are they, really?" will be addressed, as will reliability and maturity, with test results from testing/validation that has been done to date.

Network analysis techniques are essential to designing and operating communications networks and information systems that support critical missions, especially when employing commercial technology. Network operators traditionally control traffic in their networks and analyze traffic patterns by looking at data flows and at control messages traversing their networks. However, networks and systems supporting critical missions must also operate securely and the protocols for securing systems inherently hide information that would otherwise help network operators understand the behavior of their networks. This gets further complex when traditionally private networks evolve to using more commercial services and access technologies in an increasingly mobile user environment. Many basic network analysis techniques are in conflict with strategies for securing networks and systems. This panel explores emerging strategies for securing mission-critical systems and looks at approaches to network analysis appropriate to secure assured communications and assured information environments, including those that involve commercial services.

The need for advanced methods of managing use of the limited RF spectrum has given rise to the cognitive radio and, to a lesser extent, cognitive networks. Key to any gains with these technologies is the development and deployment of algorithms across the RF-user space that coordinates the dynamic RF spectrum use by communications, EW, PNT radar and others. The panel will address the issues confronting such coordination and what algorithms might be best employed.

Testing military electronic systems, particularly Electronic Warfare systems, has become increasingly difficult due to several realities. The first reality is the revenue potential of spectrum to the government and to commercial operators purchasing licenses for spectrum. As more spectrum is sold to commercial operators, less spectrum is available to the military. The second is the nature of recent warfare, in OEF and OIF enemy combatants used commercial communication and network technologies for command and control as well as triggering for IEDs. The technologies are easy to procure and easy to use. Finally, irregular warfare and information operations share common spectrum with commercial operators. The distinction between military and commercial spectrum is vanishing. The acquisition and development tasks and DOD spectrum management tasks face increased challenges in supporting test and training operations.

Spear the Unknown: Fulfilling the Promise of Reputation- Based SecurityCyber attackers are getting smarter — hitting our military systems with unique, targeted attacks not seen anywhere else in the world. With hundreds of millions of these distinct, mutated threats emerging each year, the U.S. military must augment its traditional signature-based and heuristics tactics with efficient, context-based cyber defenses that boast a much broader definition of context than simple white lists and black lists.

The key — true reputation-based security — promises to reverse the efficacy of stealthy, targeted attacks, and to create a virtuous spiral of increasing IT security with reduced overhead. But which technological strategies and solutions are best suited to fulfill this promise?

This MILCOM panel will examine the latest, most advanced tools for using context and reputation-based techniques to identify and block malware. In particular, panelists will discuss how Prevalence, Emergence, Origin, Connectivity, and Experience form the five building blocks of reputation analysis.

Military and civilian first responders and emergency officials are constantly challenged to respond rapidly, while coordinating with multiple government agencies, emergency personnel and affected individuals. Newer technologies and omnipresent IP infrastructure can enable unified alerting to facility-based and personal devices for outbound communications, while collecting and tracking solicited responses. Lessons learned from disasters also highlight the need for inbound notifications from affected individuals. Reports of a shooting or terrorist attack should facilitate automatic and seamless transmission of supporting details such as a photo/video of the event, its location and personal identification information. Widespread adoption of smart devices provides military and civilian personnel with extended capabilities, including geo-location and multimedia support. Driven by the pressing need for efficient emergency management, a convergence is emerging, where inbound and outbound IP data flows enable effective ways to intercommunicate with affected personnel. This panel will explore this convergence and actions needed to accelerate it.

This panel, representing senior United States Department of Defense (DoD) organizations, are prepared to discuss policies, processes, and programs focused on improving Tactical Data Link (TDL) Joint, Allied, and Coalition interoperability. The United States DoD, in support of the warfighter, is committed to improving Joint, Allied and Coalition Interoperability. The Joint TDL Migration Plan (JTMP) is DoD’s policy document for providing insights into the DoD vision for migration from the perspective of the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) and the Joint Staff (JS). The DoD Chief Information Office (CIO) is the lead DoD organization responsible for communications policies, the Office of Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics (AT&L) oversees acquisition, the JS coordinates warfighter requirements, and the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) enforces standards all in the interest of the warfighter. Each of these organizations work together, along with Service and other Agency experts to ensure optimum interoperability capabilities are developed and fielded to the warfighter. During the past several years, in order to find advances in tactical communications, DoD has conducted a number of studies and assessments, including the 2007 Joint Airborne Networking (JAN) Study and the 2008, 2009, and 2010 Advanced Tactical Data Link (ATDL) Assessments. More recently, the team was responsible for leading the Joint Aerial Layer Network (JALN) Analysis of Alternatives (AoA). This AoA was completed in 2011. A follow-on effort, led by the JALN Council, provides a Joint forum for integrating and synchronizing Service programs and initiatives that advance development and fielding of JALN capabilities. These studies and assessments, in concert with other OSD, JS, and Service efforts, are integral in achieving more effective interoperable tactical communications capabilities in the future. The results and impacts of these studies and assessments referenced above will be discussed by the team members who led these efforts. Their participation on this panel will also offer the opportunity to share insights regarding their organization’s scope and focus.

This panel examines the commonalities of satellite communications development efforts between the DoD services and industry. With a future trend towards reduced research dollars there is both a challenge and opportunity to make the most of resources and synergize efforts. This has occurred on individual projects between organizations. However, do the individual research organizations envision enough commonality in their future plans to better synchronize their efforts?

The panel members will present their individual organization vision and plans for future work, and explore the items of common cause that can bring better satellite communications to the soldier/sailor/airman/marine.

Cloud computing is an attractive metaphor for computation as well as data storage, access, and management, freeing the end user from worries about the location and management of the resources they use. Cloud computing promises the user ubiquitous access, scalability, and security without having to worry about the administrative chores of managing hardware, upgrades, and backups. The success of the cloud computing metaphor in the commercial and enterprise environment has led the DoD community to consider adopting clouds in the military environment as well. However, military networks, especially tactical networks, differ significantly from commercial networks, with limited bandwidth, variable latency, and frequent disconnections causing partitions. Given the nature of the military environment and networks, users may be very interested and concerned about the location of their data and resources - just the opposite of the commercial cloud user. The objective of this panel is to examine the intersection of cloud computing and tactical edge networks.

According to U.S. Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, cyber attacks represents a preeminent threat to US security. A newly released industry report by CyberSheath revealed that the theft, misuse and exploitation of privileged accounts is a key tactic in each phase of an APT attack cycle. These accounts provide wide ranging access to every connected system — making them the most powerful, and potentially damaging, accounts in any organization. Attackers know this, which is why they’ve emerged as the priority target and staging ground for major enterprise assaults, such as the successful cyber-attacks on the U.S. Department of Energy, U.S. Chamber of Commerce, and states like South Carolina. This panel, will feature cyber security experts deconstructing the ‘privileged account pathway’ hackers have travelled to perpetrate some of the most devastating attacks in recent years, focusing on why securing these accounts are critical to preventing the next APT.

The way we fight wars has changed over the past quarter-century--we now anticipate most conflicts will involve coalition operations rather than solely U.S. forces, yet the way we design and acquire systems has not changed. We give lip-service to interoperability, including interoperability with allies, but during requirements definition any attempt to account for coalition partner access is deemed an added requirement that the U.S. can't pay for and which will have to wait until an international partner is identified to pay the bill associated with incorporating their requirements into the design. This is an inherently inefficient approach. We can field more effective systems with efficient design and cost-sharing if we re-orient our mindset to acknowledge that releasability is inherently a U.S. requirement.

Expeditionary operations require the establishment of an operational forward-deployed chain of command made up of disperse deployable headquarters (DHQs) to exercise command and control. Such geographical dispersion is mission-dependent and may span from a limited number of large DHQs to many dispersed small DHQs.

In-theatre communications interconnecting different DHQs are nominally provided by SATCOMs supported by optional/augmentation line-of-sight (LOS) terrestrial wireless transmission systems. Operational requirements of modern expeditionary operations are calling for potential enlarged geographical areas of operation and for bandwidth-hungry mission-support C3 applications. NATO Allied Command Transformation and NATO C&I Agency have been conducting research on the topic of intra-theatre wireless communications in support of expeditionary operations, as replacement and/or augmentation transmission services to traditional SATCOM WAN bearers.

Given the constraints posed by expeditionary operations on deployable intra-theatre WAN transmission systems, an enlarged debate between representatives from the users’ community, transmission scientists, and other stakeholders discussing the problem and potential solutions is deemed pertinent.

Various challenges to bridging traditional radio systems whether in a commercial or military and environment has been a goal difficult to achieve for many year. Often the choice to overcome such challenges falls upon a specific vendor to implement routing capabilities inside a particular radio or modem platform either a Layer 2 or 3 of the OSI Architecture. These challenges for having a seamless network convergence and path choice are often complicated for many reasons. First, including the routing capabilities inside the radio or modem do not allow for multiple radio systems of difference vendors to converge quickly and adapt to changing RF or network environments. Second such solutions often lead to proprietary implementations often crossing over Layer 2 and 3 boundaries, which prevent such intelligent path selection outside of the platform. Third, interaction with standardized Layer 3 routing protocols often is difficult due to the various configurations or timers, administrative route cost and metrics not clearly defined to the overlaying routing infrastructure. With the creation of RFC-5578 Radio Aware Routing and the newer proposed RFC for Dynamic Link Exchange Protocol (DLEP), the burden of path decision and link metric calculation can be abstracted from the actual radio/ Modem and allot a network router to perform accurate and rapid path section for an MANET environment challenged by physical barriers and changing parameters.

The ways people and information devices connect to the Internet have significantly changed in recent years. Highly capable wireless networks are fueling a revolution in the way people access and share information, as the ‘wireless Internet’ continues to take form. As the world’s dependence on wireless networking technologies increases, the subject of wireless network security becomes both increasingly important and challenging. While this remains an area of active research in both academia and industry, the problem space has morphed significantly over recent years with the increased complexity of networks and consumer devices; the rise of smart devices has led to an entire new set of security challenges. Whether the military community is looking to adopt these technologies or looking to deny these technologies to an adversary, these security challenges are of particular interest.

This tutorial aims to provide attendees with practical knowledge of how to both secure and attack several key commercial wireless networking technologies. The tutorial will first provide attendees with a theoretical treatment of wireless network security and information operations. The tutorial will then provide an overview of many of the key security software tools available to a network security professional and numerous examples of attack methods utilizing these tools. This tutorial will provide several in-class demonstrations so that attendees will gain an appreciation of these tools, with a focus on the Backtrack 5 security suite.

Satellite communications on-the-move (SOTM) is a new communications capability that will play a key role in future military communication systems. These systems will enable two-way, high-speed communications over Fixed Satellite Service satellites operating in the Ku and Ka frequency bands. SOTM terminals use very small antennas mounted on land vehicles. Currently, due to the increased demand for broadband communications, there is a growing interest on the use of earth terminals on moving platforms for commercial and government applications. However, since satellite spectrum is a shared resource regulations and standards that support these systems will need to be developed.

This tutorial will discuss general characteristics of SOTM systems; current regulations and standards that govern their operation; spectral efficiency performance of SOTM systems; modeling and impacts of motion-induced antenna pointing errors; and interference assessment techniques for SOTM networks. Also, the tutorial will provide practical examples that show how SOTM networks can be designed to meet interference and performance requirements

Space and mode dIvISIon multIplexIng For hIgh-capacIty optIcal communIcatIonS

Room 14A 2:15 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Speaker:

Dr. Alan Willner

Department of Electrical Engineering University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA2 CEUs: CompTIA A+/Network+

This tutorial will: (a) provide an introduction to basic, single-spatial-mode optical communication systems in fiber and free space, and (b) explore the general advances and challenges associated with space and mode division multiplexing, including OAM-based systems.

A well-followed approach for increasing the capacity in optical communication systems is to increase the number of independent data channels that are simultaneously transmitted in either free-space of fiber. This includes wavelength- and polarization division multiplexing. More recently, there has been an exciting trend towards space and mode division multiplexing, in which multiple independent data channels can be transmitted on either parallel spatial channels or on orthogonal propagating modes. Such approaches can exist in free-space and in fiber systems. One particular approach to multiplexing, transmitting and de-multiplexing orthogonal modes is the use of the unique orbital angular momentum (OAM) of an optical beam. A beam has a specific amount of OAM which can be described as a unique twisting value of the phase front as the wave propagates, for which different "twist" values can be orthogonal to each other. The general and recent advances and challenges associated with space and mode division multiplexing, including OAM-based systems, will be explored as one of the major topics of this tutorial.

Speaker:

Dr. Houman Zarrinkoub The MathWorks2 CEUs: CompTIA Network+

In this tutorial, you will learn how to develop interactive Simulink models with a MATLAB GUI to control and test various parameters of a communications link including interference patterns. We will show how MATLAB and Simulink provide a flexible design environment for simulating a variety of Electronic Warfare scenarios including antenna patterns, jammer types, and power considerations.

Next, we will demonstrate how to model RF front-ends at the system level by using the design of a ZigBee system as an example and will progressively refine the specifications of the RF receiver and include realistic impairments. Attendees will learn how to design and verify the architecture of the RF receiver for achieving a low-cost, low-power solution. After choosing a direct conversion topology, we will study the dynamic range, model noise and phase noise, include and mitigate the impact of DC offset due to even order non-linearity and LO leakage.

During the tutorial, different modeling approaches will be used, including purely behavioral descriptions, equivalent baseband models, and circuit envelope simulations. With a progression of refined models you will learn how to simulate RF together with digital signal processing algorithms and find the most suitable trade-off between simulation speed and modeling fidelity.

Room 15A 2:15 p.m.to 5 p.m.

Speaker:

Dr. Xi Zhang Texas A&M University2 CEUs: CompTIA Network+

Recent years have witnessed the rapid emergence and development of a wide variety of cognitive radio technologies as the intelligent, flexible, and efficient spectrum accessing way to increase the spectrum efficiency by enabling the secondary users (unlicensed users) to opportunistically utilize the vacant spectrum which is not used by the primary users (licensed users). The quality of service (QoS) provisioning in wireless cognitive radio networks, which is critical to a wide range of time-, reliability-, and/or throughput-sensitive wireless communications networks applications, encounters many new and challenging problems in that the QoS performance of the secondary users is not only affected by the time-varying wireless channels or links, but also constrained by the uncertain incumbency of the primary users. In this tutorial, we will address a number of key issues and challenges, as well as the state-of-the-art theories and techniques for QoS-assurance wireless cognitive radio networks. This tutorial will also cover a number of our newly developed results on the designs and performance modeling techniques for QoS-driven wireless cognitive radio networks with emphasis on PHY and MAC layers aspects. We will provide the tutorial attendees with an essential understanding of the current research of the QoS-provisioning in wireless cognitive radio networks.

Speaker:

Benny Bing Broadband Labs2 CEUs: CompTIA Network+ 2 GIAC CMUs

Wireless access has become the dominant medium for network connectivity due to the proliferation of smartphones and tablets. However, the size and power limitations of these personal devices as well as data caps imposed by cellular operators lead to significant constraints in the delivery of high quality videos. This has raised concerns among content providers and consumers. This tutorial describes emerging technologies that may help overcome these challenges. Key topics covered include high bit rate wireless transmission for single-antenna mobile devices, bandwidth-efficient adaptive bit rate (ABR) video streaming, non real-time (NRT) video delivery for broadcast wireless networks, and error concealment methods to improve the video quality in interference-prone or disruptive networking environments. Participants will learn the benefits of deploying multi-user single antenna wireless systems, the use of error concealment for correcting corrupted video frames, important metrics (e.g., video segment size, segment rate, segment suppression) that impact the efficiency of ABR streaming, and new standards for NRT video delivery. An in-depth review on the practical performance of popular ABR streaming methods from Apple and Microsoft over a variety of wireless networks (e.g., Wi-Fi, WiMAX, LTE) will be presented. Live demonstrations of error concealment using high definition videos will also be provided.


lte and Femto-cell opportunItIeS In the mIlItary and IntellIgence arenaS

Room 14B 9:15 p.m. to noon

Speaker:

Neil Wiffen Red Banana Wireless, Ltd2 CEUs: CompTIA Network+

Tactical Command and Control during combat and surveillance operations are example roles for which LTE and Femtocell technologies can now be deployed, with their flexibility, robustness and self-management capabilities making them suitable for many harsh environments and rapid deployment scenarios.

Increasing numbers of equipment vendors and application developers are eager to partner with commercial, military and government organizations to develop bespoke solutions in areas such as Private Networks; Networking in a Box; Intelligence Gathering; Denial of Service; Nomadic Networks; Personnel and Asset-monitoring systems – all of which have military and intelligence gathering applications.

Rapid commercial uptake of LTE and Femtocell systems has led to the development of a wide range of small form-factor solutions to suit static, nomadic and fully mobile service provision requirements.

This increasing diversity of deployment scenarios coupled with the relaxing of spectrum license rules in many regions means that equipment vendors are expanding their solution portfolios by providing more flexible capabilities that extend way beyond the previous models of commercial service provision.

This tutorial presents key aspects of LTE and Femtocell systems, describing various scenarios in which they can be deployed in support of a wide range of combat, surveillance, intelligence gathering and denial of service operations.

Speaker:

Jeremy Witmer The MITRE Corporation2 CEUs: CompTIA A+/Network+/Security+/Cloud+ 2 GIAC CMUs

This tutorial will provide an overview of the tactical cloud, and provide a deep dive into the open-source tools and design approaches to implement a robust, scalable, secure cloud in a constrained environment. We will focus on the cloud in the constrained (or tactical) environment, especially as it pertains to processing, analytics, and generating actionable information from the wealth of data that's collected. Starting with a general overview of cloud computing as it pertains to the constrained environment, we will deep-dive into all layers of the cloud, from infrastructure and hardware, up through data storage, security, and analytics, to the service and presentation layer that makes the cloud mission-useful.

Focusing on the open-source Accumulo big data storage technology originally developed by the NSA as the core of the data cloud and OpenStack for deployment and management, we will discuss other technologies and best practices to build a robust, scalable data cloud for the constrained environment.

Participants in the tutorial will leave with a foundation in cloud-computing terminology and architecture, and a broad knowledge of the open-source cloud computing technologies available for implementation.


SpatIally-coupled SparSe codeS on graphS: a convolutIonal codIng perSpectIve

Room 14A 2:15 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Speaker:

Dr. Daniel Costello Jr. University of Notre Dame2 CEUs: CompTIA A+/Network+

In this tutorial we trace the development of spatially coupled sparse codes on graphs, from their beginning as a way of constructing a low-density parity-check (LDPC) convolutional code by applying an unwrapping procedure to the parity-check matrix of an LDPC block code, through the development of protograph-based methods for identifying LDPC code ensembles with good asymptotic properties, to the current perspective of edge-spreading and or spatially coupling together a chain of protographs. The topics to be covered include the following:

• Brief review of classical block and convolutional codes

• Review of LDPC block codes

• Protograph-based constructions of LDPC block codes

• Deriving LDPC convolutional codes from LDPC block codes - edge-spreading or spatial coupling

• Encoding and decoding procedures for LDPC convolutional codes

• Asymptotic free distance growth rates and iterative decoding thresholds for LDPC convolutional codes

• Code termination and the threshold saturation phenomenon - spatially coupled codes

• Asymptotic minimum distance growth rates and iterative decoding thresholds for spatially coupled codes

• Quasi-cyclic code designs for high-speed encoding and decoding

• Windowed decoding strategies for low latency, low complexity decoding

• Pseudocodewords, absorbing sets, trapping sets, and error floor performance for spatially coupled codes

• Open questions related to the possible adoption of spatially coupled codes as industry standards

• A summary of recent results on spatially coupled codes

• A summary of applications of the spatial coupling concept to other communication problems

dISruptIon/delay tolerant mobIle ad hoc tactIcal netWorkS

Room 15A 2:15 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Speaker:

Dr. Zhensheng Zhang UCLA2 CEUs: CompTIA Network+

In tactical mobile ad hoc networks, nodes (soldiers, vehicles, UAVs) are constantly in motion and/or operate on limited power. When nodes are in motion, links can be obstructed by intervening objects. To conserve power, links are shut down periodically, resulting in intermittent connectivity. Traditional routing approaches, which assume stable end-to-end connectivity and drop packets when next hop to destination is not available, do not work well with intermittent connections. New protocols have been developed to handle this case. Networks with applications that can tolerate delays beyond conventional IP forwarding delays are referred to as delay/disruption tolerant networks (DTN). In this tutorial, we will review different DTN architectures and different protocol stacks proposed, including the Bundle Protocol (BP), the Convergence Layer (CL) protocols. We will also review the state of the art in routing in DTNs and categorize these routing protocols based on information used, including the latest in opportunistic routing and vehicular DTNs . Recent developments in erasure coding, network coding and social networks applied to DTNs are also described. Applications in DTNs related to DOD missions will be briefly discussed. The tutorial also identifies open research issues and intends to motivate new research and development in the DOD Tactical Networks.


FIlter bank multIcarrIer For next generatIon oF communIcatIon SyStemS

Room 14A 8 a.m. to 10:45 a.m.

Speaker:

Dr. Behrouz Farhang-Borojeny University of Utah2 CEUs: CompTIA Network+ 2 GIAC CMUs

As of today, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) has been the dominant technology for broadband multicarrier communications. However, in certain applications, such as cognitive radios and uplink of multiuser multicarrier systems, where a subset of subcarriers is allocated to each user, OFDM may be an undesirable solution. In this tutorial, we address the shortcomings of OFDM in these and other applications and show that filter bank multicarrier (FBMC) could be a more effective solution. Although FBMC methods have been studied by a number of researchers, some even before the invention of OFDM, only recently FBMC has been seriously considered by a few standard committees. The goal of this tutorial is to bring this upcoming trend to the attention of the signal processing and communications communities and to motivate more research in this important area. Another important component of this tutorial that may be of particular interest to MILCOM attendees is the introduction of a new filter bank-based multicarrier spread spectrum (FB-MC-SS) technique that has been recently developed by the mentor of this tutorial. The tutorial presents applications of this new technology in the general area of spread spectrum systems (where it will be found to be superior to DS-SS and FH-SS) and also as an underlay control channel for development of the future cognitive/adaptive radios.

Brian Farmer Matt Grenis

DISA/EMC Management Concepts2 CEUs: CompTIA CASP

This tutorial will introduce Program Office, system integrators and other acquisition management personnel to the proper ways to consider (E3) and Spectrum Supportability (SS) concerns in the DoD systems acquisition process. As electronic systems have evolved, they have become more complex, and E3 and spectrum certification requirements have become critical factors in the ability to employ military systems and platforms effectively. Reductions in the number of military platforms and personnel and increased reliance on technology means that controlling electromagnetic environmental effects on weapon systems is critical to future U. S. military success. Not accounting for E3/SS during systems design, production, and integration can result in degraded systems performance, program schedule delays, and funding issues. The objectives of this course are to give attendees an awareness of how electromagnetic environmental effects and spectrum supportability concerns impact systems acquisition and to provide an understanding of the tasks that must be undertaken during the acquisition process to ensure compatibility. In particular, the Spectrum Supportability Risk Assessment, a recently mandated requirement from DoDI 4650.01, DoD Spectrum Use, will be highlighted - what it is, why it's important and how to comply.

Room 15A 8 a.m. to 10:45 a.m.

Speaker:

Dr. B.S. Manoj Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology (IIST)2 CEUs: CompTIA Network+ 2 GIAC CMUs

Today’s information-centric warfare demands highly dynamic, reliable and available network infrastructure for timely information gathering and delivery. Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) offer the solution for a highly available tactical information infrastructure. WMNs are now in their fourth generation of evolution. The tutorial will discuss the generations of WMN evolution, the past design decisions, past pitfalls, tactical WMN design, protocols for various layers and most recent advances in this area. Foremost among them is the design for network capacity in battlefield environments. There are several factors that contribute to the capacity of WMNs. First among them is the network architecture. Tactical network architectural design should be application-specific. Second biggest factor that affects the WMN capacity is the design of protocols. There exists no global design strategy that works in all tactical applications. That makes application-specific medium access control, routing, and transport protocol design very important. Third main challenge in tactical WMN is the spectrum and the physical layer related issues. Tutorial further shows discusses most recent advances such as cognitive WMNs, Small-World WMNs provide the desired capabilities of tactical WMNs. Results from multiple case studies will show the traffic variations under various emergency response situations that a WMN may encounter.

We would like to thank the many members of the government, academic and industrial technical community who contributed to the technical program through their careful reviews of the technical panel and tutorial proposals.


The Wounded Warrior Project seeks to honor and empower wounded warriors by helping injured service members aid and assist each other, and by providing unique, direct programs and services to meet their needs.

In honor of this year’s conference and in appreciation of our speakers, a donation of $5000 has been made to help this worthy organization continue its important work.

2013 Ieee mIlcom aWard For SuStaIned technIcal achIevement

The selection committee for the IEEE Military Communications Conference Award for Sustained Technical Achievement is pleased to unanimously recommend Mr. Joseph P. Macker as the recipient of the award in 2013. Since 1996, Mr. Macker has been a prolific, consistent contributor of high-quality technical papers to MILCOM in the area of self-organizing and mobile Internet technology. He is the author/co-author of 35 publications in the MILCOM conference record, including one or more papers in each of the last 17 meetings of MILCOM. He has made numerous technical presentations at MILCOM. The impact of his contributions is evidenced by the high citation count for many of his MILCOM papers.

Mr. Macker has been a technology leader for military wireless communication systems for more than two decades. Several of his MILCOM papers report results from a particularly notable project that resulted in pioneering work on efficient and reliable multicasting data transport protocols. He is the co-author of the related Internet Standard RFC 5740. Designs from this work have been used to disseminate and share data among large, dynamic groups of receivers within a broad set of Internet-based architectural scenarios.

He received the NRL Alan Berman Research Publication Award for his 2010 IEEE Military Communications Conference paper. The paper, titled “Multicast service discovery profiles for deployment within dynamic edge networks,” is co-authored with Justin Dean, Ian Taylor, and Andrew Harrison. He has twice served as a co-guest editor for the IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications on topics related to Military Networking and Communications and on Wireless Ad Hoc Networks.

His primary research interests are in the following areas: self-organizing network protocol and architecture design, multicast technology and data reliability, mobile wireless networking, complex network theory and network structures, network modeling systems and tools, cooperative software agents in ad hoc environments, collaborative networking, and appropriate middleware services for dynamic networks.

Joseph P. Macker is a senior communication systems and network research scientist within the Information Technology Division at the Naval Research Laboratory in Washington, D.C. He presently leads the Protocol Engineering and Advanced Networking (Protean) Group, which is investigating highly adaptive networking solutions for both mobile wireless and wired networking architectures. He holds an M.S.E.E. from George Washington University in Communications Theory and a B.S.E.E. from the University of Maryland, College Park.

Since 1999, John M. Shea has been on the faculty at the University of Florida, in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, where he is currently an Associate Professor. His research interests are in wireless communications, applications of error-control coding, cross-layer design, collaborative and cooperative diversity, military communications, hybrid ARQ and ad hoc networks.

Since 1996, Professor Shea has been a prolific, consistent contributor of high-quality technical papers to MILCOM in the area of tactical wireless communications and networking. He is the author or co-author of 33 publications in the MILCOM records, including one or more papers in each of the last 17 MILCOM conferences. He has made numerous technical presentations at MILCOM, including several invited presentations.

Professor Shea’s novel ideas and discoveries have provided a foundation and impetus for the work of other researchers in tactical wireless communications and networks. He and co-author Michael B. Pursley received the Fred W. Ellersick Award for best paper in the Unclassified Technical Program at MILCOM 1996. That paper, along with his MILCOM papers from 1997 and 1998, were developed into a series of highly cited articles that have appeared in the IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications. The impact of his contributions is evidenced by the high citation count for many of his MILCOM papers and the subsequent scholarly journal articles based on ideas originally presented in his papers at MILCOM.

Professor Shea’s work reported in MILCOM papers represents an important part of the outcomes from several key DoD-supported basic research projects addressing next generation concepts in tactical wireless communications and networks. In 2010, he served as the MILCOM Unclassified Technical Program Chair.

Professor Shea earned his B.S. degree in computer engineering and M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from Clemson University in 1993, 1995 and 1998, respectively.

Established by the MILCOM Conference Board, the MILCOM Award for Sustained Technical Achievement recognizes individuals who, over a long period of time, have made important technical contributions to military communications as evidenced by significant, high-quality technical papers and presentations at numerous MILCOM conferences.
