Wireless Links Enhance Maritime Security

摘要

U.S. Navy boarding teams in the midst of operations now are able to exchange information about their target vessels using highspeed commercial wireless technologies. A system funded by the Office of Naval Research and developed by the Program Executive Office for Command, Control, Communications, Computers and Intelligence (C~4I) has just entered the fleet and is allowing maritime security boarding crews to tap Navy databases and to transmit information from a boarded ship.
