REAL-TIME EMULATION OF JTRS WAVEFORMS AND NETWORKSJTRS Network Emulator (JNE) accurately emulates JTRS waveforms and mobile networks in real-time. JNE provides an environment for network planning, test & evaluation, application development, and training with JTRS radios.
The Ground Mobile Radio (GMR) is a next generation,
vehicle-mounted, ‘multimedia radio’ to be deployed by
the US Department of Defense (DoD) as part of the Joint
Tactical Radio System. JTRS is a software-defined radio
(SDR) capable of running multiple waveforms and
provides a network-centric capability to connect joint task
forces and multiple military services. Two important
waveforms of JTRS are the Wideband Network Waveform
(WNW) and the Soldier Radio Waveform (SRW).
The JTRS Network Emulator (JNE), provided by Scalable
Network Technologies, Inc., is being developed to provide
a scalable environment to facilitate analysis, test and
evaluation, mission planning, mission rehearsals and
training for networks of JTRS and current radio networks
that can scale to hundreds of nodes. JNE uses Live-
Virtual-Constructive (LVC) models to address a significant
problem in DoD acquisitions: unavailability of physical
JTRS radios in sufficient numbers. JNE provides a unique
software-based capability to emulate large networks in
real-time. It also allows real applications like situational
awareness, command & control, streaming video and chat
to run on the emulated wireless and wired networks.
Waveforms like WNW (and SRW in near future) running on
real GMR radios can interoperate with emulated
waveforms in JNE, and network managers can control the
emulated network just like they manage real networks.
JNE can thus be used in place of physical JTRS radios for
a variety of purposes at a significantly lower cost while
providing the ability to operate the emulated network in
difficult environments like urban areas, mountainous
terrain, mixed land-air deployments, and it has the
potential for multi-brigade scenarios.
JTRS Network Emulator is developed by Scalable Network Technologies, Inc. (SNT) under a
SBIR Phase 2.5 contract funded by JPEO JTRS, with matching funding from Program
Execution Office Integration (PEO I) Brigade Combat Team Modernization (BCTM), and Army
Operational Test Command (OTC). The Communications Effects Server (CES) is Government
Off-The-Shelf (GOTS) software developed under direction of the PEO I, Modeling and
Simulation Office (MSO). Access to JNE and CES requires a Distribution Agreement (DA) and
