Asymmetric warfare has redefined the tactical edge. Defensive postures and communication infrastructure of the past applied to a much more stationary battlefield with less sophisticated adversaries.
Today’s battlefield is much more dynamic and adversaries have adopted cyber and electronic warfare tactics. To stay ahead, we need to ensure that warfighters have the same secure and robust communication’s experience while on-the-move as they do at-the-halt.
On-the-move means communications components that are ruggedized to adapt to mobility over any terrain, reliable in the face of unanticipated conditions and have smaller form factors. Situational Awareness cannot wait until troops establish an at-the-halt position.
Wireless, secure, mobile, ad-hoc and enterprise communication networks deployed at the tactical edge are critical to the success of the mission and the safety of warfighters.

Situational Awareness – Identifying the Threat
Enhanced situational awareness means better decision-making. Enhanced soldier-to-soldier communication means safer and more efficient mission execution. The SDR-H2, powered by DTC’s unique mission-critical Tactical COFDM Mesh waveforms, delivers high bandwidth Full Motion Video (FMV) from helmet and body worn cameras, low latency full-duplex voice throughout the team and supports the sharing of critical mission data on the ground where it is needed.
Operating as a standalone network or backhauling via DTC’s Mobile and Infrastructure Mesh radios such as the NETNode-5RM, the SDR-H 2 leverages the self-forming, self-healing properties of the DTC Mesh to provide a robust, high-bandwidth tactical network in the most demanding environments.

Squad Data Radio – Secure Communications with LPI/LPD
Proven compatibility with ATAK, CIVTAK & WINTAK and other situational awareness applications, the SDR-H2 has the ability to operate in channel bandwidths down to 1.25MHz for extreme range performance at very low power and low LPE/LPI/LPD. This makes the SOL8SDR-H the ideal choice for Squad Data Radios sharing PLI, mapping data, messaging and mission plans while operating without the need for external infrastructure. Equally, DTC’s Interference Avoidance System (IAS) provides a cognitive radio capability, protecting blue force communications from interference and jamming, while facilitating battlefield frequency coordination. The SDR-H2 helps build the overall situational awareness picture within the squad.

Battlefield-Wide Situational Awareness
Direct video downlink from UAV platforms can provide unrivalled situational awareness on the battlefield, as well as close-in intelligence on targets and opposing forces. The SDR-H2 can operate in a “receive only” COFDM mode, using industry standard DVB-T or DTC proprietary narrowband COFDM waveforms to provide a low latency “one-to-many” downlink surveillance capability. In addition, the SDR–H2 IP Video streaming capability can stream video directly to existing tablets and PC’s.

Reducing the Warfighter’s Load – MUM-T
A reduced load leads to a more mobile and faster moving force. Manned-unmanned teaming (MUM-T) systems can do this by teaming the soldier with an unmanned or optionally manned vehicle, to deliver supplies and ammunition or even to act as mobile stretchers to aid in the evacuation of casualties. With a DTC Mesh radio on the vehicle, the SDR-H2 is the ideal choice for a soldier carried controller node. Interfacing to a rugged tablet, PC or a custom remote controller and powered from standard MBITR-style military batteries, the SDR-H2 facilitates vehicle control and brings back video and sensor data from the vehicle. With the DTC Mesh, repeater nodes can easily be dropped to build-out control range well beyond Line-of-Sight – all without any need for manual configuration.
