Abstract

This article presents a comparison between commercial and tactical wireless networks, pointing to their different requirements, expectations, needs, and constraints for information assurance and so on. This comparative study demonstrates why commercial wireless networks have made more technological leaps than tactical wireless networks. The article introduces a model for tactical wireless networks based on the architectures that have been pursued (especially the Joint Tactical Radio System and the Future Force vision) within the last decade or so. The model draws parallels with commercial wireless networks to allow tactical wireless networks a plausible opportunity to achieve similar technological advancements. © 2010 IEEE.
