4.4.2 Communication Relay
By 2010, existing and planned capacities are forecast to meet only 44 percent of the need projected by Joint Vision 2010 to ensure information superiority. A separate study, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles as Communications Platforms, dated November 4, 1997, was conducted by OSD (C3I). Its major conclusions regarding the use of an UA as an airborne communication node (ACN) were:
.
Tactical communication needs can be met much more responsively and effectively with ACNs than with satellites.
.
ACNs can effectively augment theater satellite capabilities by addressing deficiencies in capacity and connectivity.
.
Satellites are better suited than UA for meeting high capacity, worldwide communications needs.
ACNs can enhance intra-theater and tactical communications capacity and connectivity by providing 1) more efficient use of bandwidth, 2) extending the range of existing terrestrial LOS communications systems, 3) extending communication to areas denied or masked to satellite service, and 4) providing significant improvement in received power density compared to that of satellites, improving reception and decreasing vulnerability to jamming.
