Communication management system for providing antijam/privacy capabilities for voice radio communications

摘要

A communications management system includes a central processor (10) which is connected via an order wire subsystem (12) to various remote terminals (14, 16, 18). The central processor (10) maintains tables (42, 44) which relate remote terminals (14, 16, 18) to communication operating frequencies and assign jammers to selected operating frequencies. Further tables are maintained to list adversary frequencies (40), remote terminal locations (46) and remote terminal channel monitor assignments (48). Processor (10) develops the communications assignment table based on a preselected set of operating channels minus the channels being jammed or used by adversary parties. The channel assignments are changed on a recurring basis to reduce the probability of intercept and jamming. An operator console (24) is provided for displaying the data in the tables and for entering commands to update the tables. An external sensor system (22) is utilized for monitoring communication channel activity to update the adversary frequencies table (40). The remote terminals comprise tactical radios (66) connected by an interface module (78) to the order wire subsystem (12). Interface modules (78) are adapted to accommodate the many designs of radios (66) now in military inventories.
