Zusammenfassung: | INTER-PLATFORM COMMUNICATION: * SEAMLESS CARRIER-FORM TRANSDUCTION (OPTICAL FIBER, FREE-SPACE OPTICAL, WIRELESS MICROWAVE) * DIRECT CONVERSION BETWEEN WIRELESS, OPTICAL-FIBER AND FREE-SPACE OPTICAL CARRIERS (WITHOUT CONVERTING BACK TO BASEBAND SIGNAL) * COMBINED USE OF TIME MULTIPLEXING AND FREQUENCY MULTIPLEXING * WAVELENGTH ROUTING (WAVELENGTH TRANSLATION) ALLOWS SEAMLESS CONVERSION BETWEEN OPTICAL FIBER NETWORK AND FREE-SPACE OPTICAL NETWORK INTRA-PLATFORM SIGNAL DISTRIBUTION, SWITCHING AND ROUTING: - OF BOTH ANALOG AND DIGITAL DATA - FOR VARIETY OF MILITARY FUNCTIONALITIES - INTERFACING TO VARIETY OF PROCESSORS, DISPLAYS, SENSORS, WAVEFORM SOURCES Transparent to type of modulation / multiplexing format * CONTROLLER-BASED RATHER THAN CONTENT-BASED ROUTING AND RECONFIGURATION * OPTICAL-WAVELENGTH BASED FRAMEWORK FOR MULTIPLEXING, SWITCHING AND ROUTING Makes efficient use cabling and connectors * MIXTURE OF SECOND-LEVEL MULTIPLEXING FORMATS FOR NARROWER-BAND INFO (RF-SUBCARRIER MULTIPLEXING, TDMA AND CDMA)
