The Challenge
The EHF satellite communications environment is one of the most complex communications
systems in use today. The predominant computer-controlled EHF satellite types (FEP,
UFO-E, UFO-EE, and MILSTAR) have many unique operational characteristics.
The unique characteristics and limitations of the variety of different software families
(E12, G05, and J62/70) in use in EHF terminals on ship and shore sites around the world
also present a challenge. As if that wasn't enough, the varieties of tactical and
strategic EHF circuits (voice, Tomahawk MDU, MDR ADNS, etc.) have their own unique
operational characteristic. Units outside of deployment generally find it difficult
and inconvenient, if not impossible, to get satellite resources to support routine EHF
training. In addition, government-sponsored EHF training teams are hard-pressed
(personnel-wise and financially) to travel to the many worldwide EHF installations to
provide periodic EHF refresh training support. On the other hand, operational EHF
circuits are usually in use 24-hours a day/7 days a week, so system operator personnel
usually do not have the opportunity to practice and maintain their understanding of
the various EHF environments and circuits. Whether you provide daily EHF operations,
training, or support OR provided periodic operations, training and/or support, your
challenge is to maintain and improve your EHF skill level - as well as that of your team.
The NESP Solution
Whether it's an MDR Tomahawk Missile MDU transfer point-point call circuit, an ADNS
Dual-Simplex network, a High Speed Teletype network, a Tactical Voice coordination network,
or a Video Teleconference circuit, NESPWare's objective is simple: To faithfully simulate
the configuration and setup of a circuit from the EHF terminal's and satellite's perspective.
NESPWare "knows" the proper configuration and setup procedures of these circuits, and more,
and supports them in accordance with current EHF operational practices and guidelines! With
NESPWare, you can practice moving LDR and MDR SPOT beams, as well as establish, modify, and
tear-down communications services - the way it's done in real life. You can learn without
impacting real-world users or using precious/rare satellite resources.
