CHAIRMAN'S
WELCOME
DEAR MILCOM 2013 PARTICIPANTS,
On behalf of the MILCOM Conference Board and BAE Systems, I’d like to welcome you to
beautiful San Diego for MILCOM 2013. We’re excited to be here with all of you -- to learn,
share, and network at the world’s premier international conference and exposition for
military communications. This week, enjoy a full program of keynote speakers, technical
sessions,panel discussions, paper presentations, and exhibits -- and hopefully the great
weather.
JOE SENFTLE
MILCOM 2013 General Chair
We have a unique appreciation of MILCOM 2013 following last year’s unfortunate
cancellation, and I’d like to acknowledge the ongoing dedication of both AFCEA International
and IEEE Communications Society to MILCOM’s mission. For 32 years, these renowned
organizations have shared a commitment to bring together government, military, industry, and
academia for education, collaboration, and the betterment of military communications.
The essence of MILCOM resonates in the theme of this year’s show -- Balancing Commercial
and Defense Technologies. In a time when we are often challenged to do more with less,
it’s more important than ever that we explore, define, and leverage technologies from every
talent available in our communications community.
This year’s show features some very special keynote speakers from the communications
industry: Dr. Irwin Jacobs, founding Chairman and CEO Emeritus of Qualcomm and Mr.
Larry Payne, Vice President, U.S. Federal, Cisco Systems. Representing MITRE Corporation
is President and CEO, Mr. Alfred Grasso. And we are honored to have LtGen John Toolan, Jr.,
USMC Commanding General, 1 Marine Expeditionary Force and MajGen Steven Busby, USMC
Commanding General, Third Marine Aircraft Wing, from the United States Marine Corps.
You’ll notice that MILCOM 2013 brings more opportunities for education than ever before,
with over 200 Continuing Education Units (CEUs) approved by both IEEE and CompTIA as
well as nearly 50 Certification Maintenance Units (CMUs) approved by GIAC. Take a full-day
training class or attend panels and tutorials to earn credits. With our partner MITRE, we are
also hosting a technical program that includes 14 tutorials and 25 plenary and technical
panels, as well as more than 300 paper presentations by some of the world’s
brightest minds.
Please take time to explore the exhibit hall floor where more than 200 companies have come
to share leading-edge products and technologies that can provide reliable solutions to the
mission-critical challenges faced by today’s armed forces.
BAE Systems is honored to host MILCOM 2013. We are inspired by the innovation and
creativity gathered here in San Diego with one purpose, one goal, and one mission -to support the communication needs of our allied forces across the globe.
Sincerely,
Joe Senftle

global presence emphasizing the Asia-Pacific and Middle East
while maintaining commitments to Europe and our alliances and
partnerships across all regions. The Joint Force will recalibrate its
capabilities and make selective investments to succeed in 10 broad
missions that include Counter Terrorism and Irregular Warfare; Deter
and Defeat Aggression; Project Power Despite A2/AD Challenges;
Operate Effectively in Cyberspace and Space; Defend the Homeland;
Provide Stabilizing Presence; and others. DoD will take extra
measures to retain and build upon key advancements in networked
warfare in which Joint Forces are interdependent. DoD will also foster
development of partner capabilities that improve interoperability and
are relevant to common defense interests. A panel of senior leaders
who manage military communications and networking will address
requirements for communications capabilities needed by 21st
century warfighters to execute this strategy.

Over the last 10 years warfighters received a massive influx of
communications and networking capabilities over and above their
pre-war authorizations. Combatant commanders submitted a host
of Joint Urgent Operational Needs Statements which resulted in
accelerated deliveries of capabilities from programs of record;
modifications to in-service equipment; and procurements of
commercial capabilities to meet operational needs. As the values of
new capabilities were validated by warfighter experience, standard
packages of theater-provided communications gear were acquired for
issue to rotational units. These packages included a mix of military
and commercial radios, networks, data transport capabilities,
automation, audio/visual kits, end user devices, and specialty
terminals to interface with external sources. In addition, new
networks were developed to improve interoperability with coalition
forces. A panel of experts with personal experience in employing
these communications and networking technologies in combat will
discuss their insights, lessons learned, and recommendations for
acquisition, employment, retention, refreshment, sustainment, and
integration of military and commercial communications capabilities
provided to warfighting units.

Emerging capabilities and innovation in information technology are
dramatically improving operations, productivity, and information
sharing in the commercial sector. Government agencies are also
adopting these technologies to improve services. As the nation’s
armed forces are reshaped for 21st century missions, there will be
new opportunities to employ the power of intelligent programmable
networks, virtualization, and ubiquitous connectivity to improve Joint
operations, increase efficiency, and dominate the future battlespace.
A panel of experts will share their views on opportunities for
our Joint Forces to leverage transformational information and
communications technologies, with specific emphasis on advanced
networking, wireless mobility operations, advanced data center
operations, advanced collaboration, and autonomous operations.

Over the past two decades of intense military conflict, SATCOM has
emerged as an indispensable element of command and control and
situational awareness. With this increased dependence, the threat
of denying these SATCOM links is of increased concern. At the same
time, the protected community is looking at increased disaggregation
between strategic and tactical missions, architecture resiliency, and
system affordability. In this light, what is the future of protected and
contested SATCOM for conventional / tactical forces, and how does
Joint Aerial Layer Networking contribute to more robust and reliable
communications for the warfighter? And how do we provide assured
communications capabilities in a timely and affordable fashion? A
panel of SATCOM experts will address these questions and
related issues.

Revolutionary advances in information technology continue to
transform the world. The emerging Internet of Everything and
convergence of Big Data, Analytics, Virtualization, Cloud, Social,
and Mobile technologies are enabling ubiquitous connectivity,
collaboration, and digital relationships. Military forces are moving
into a hybrid operating environment combining commercial and
military infrastructures and adopting new services, applications,
and most notably, mobile devices. Global connectivity offers
exciting opportunities, but it also increases dependencies and
vulnerabilities. Malevolent actors on the world stage using
increasingly sophisticated and persistent digital tools and malware
pose a constant threat. The explosion in use of mobile devices
and networks for business, personal, and military purposes has
led to "Bring Your Own Device" and "Bring Your Own App" practices
which complicate the cyber security challenge. A panel of experts
will address the issues and challenges of cyber security in an
increasingly interconnected and mobile information technology
environment.

TECHNICAL PROGRAM
CHAIRMAN'S WELCOME
Dear Colleagues,
MARC RICHARD
MILCOM 2013 Technical Program Chair
On behalf of the Technical Program Committee I want to offer you a warm welcome to
MILCOM 2013. The Technical Program team has been working for over 2 years to bring to
you this outstanding program of over 300 papers, tutorials, panel sessions, and concurrent
IEEE courses.
We live in a world of economic challenges, sequestration, asymmetric warfare, changing
alliances, and global uncertainty. At the same time that same world also offers HD
television, smart phones, 4G networks, cloud computing, and big data.
Our collective challenge as communicators is to develop and field capabilities that
provide for national security yet stay within the new budget realities. This means we must
be cognizant of and leverage all emerging technologies. The collective research and
development work being performed globally by commercial industry exceeds by far the
efforts that nations can spend on their defense technologies. This advantage in investment
also means that commercial technology can evolve faster than defense technology. At the
same time, there are certain key areas where nations must develop technologies that are
unique to national interests.
We selected our theme this year, Balancing Commercial and Defense Technologies, with
this in mind. Our technical program has been designed to offer rich insights into both and
to demonstrate how they can and must be leveraged to meet our goals. I hope you will find
the program enlightening and rewarding. Further, I urge you to contribute to the value of our
program by engaging our presenters, challenging them with questions and ideas that they
may not have considered. Collectively, we make the experience far richer.
Finally, I would like to thank the many people who have made the Technical Program a reality.
Much work has and is being done behind the scenes by volunteers too numerous to mention
who have contributed to making this technical program reach the level of excellence it has.
Thank you!
Once again, I sincerely hope you enjoy your time here in San Diego.
Regards,
Marc Richard

Evolving DoD operational support requirements call for a more
robust, higher capacity, interoperable communications infrastructure
to support evolving DoD operational requirements. David Narkevicius
of OSD NII states: “In partnership with Industry, the Department is
working to help develop future communications capabilities. Efforts
like the DirecNet™ Task Force teaming across industry are working
to provide new communications capabilities offering interoperable,
flexible, high bandwidth communications with a structure to
optimize competition for cost savings to the Department.” The
Open Group DirecNet™ Task Force is an industry-led consortium to
develop a vendor neutral, open interoperability standard for a next
generation waveform. The waveform will be IP-enabled, support
the use of directional high bandwidth links, and the use of ad hoc
mobile mesh networking. A key objective of the Task Force is to
bring the advantages of commercial interoperability and standards
development processes into the Government arena. This panel
will discuss the DirecNet vision, waveform requirements drivers,
heterogeneous networking across legacy systems and its current
development status.

While there has been much progress in finding the Shannon capacity
limits of wireless single and multiuser channels, there is a limited
understanding about these capacity limits for wireless networks,
even with simple models. Moreover, system assumptions such as
constrained energy and delay, incomplete channel and network
state information, and overhead considerations require new
definitions for fundamental performance limits of mobile ad-hoc
networks (MANETs). This panel will review some of the fundamental
breakthroughs associated with fundamental performance limits of
MANETs, as well as some of the remaining open challenges in the
quest for developing information theoretic performance bounds for
such networks.

The constant rise in probes, infiltration and attacks against computer
network defenses (CND) place a significant burden on system
administrators. Current policy is to notify the operations center watch
officer of an event and let them manually decide upon a course of
action and implement the appropriate controls/counter-measures.
This man-in-the-loop response increases the human workload
and increases response times, which could lead to a breach in
network defenses. Automated responses could reduce the burden
and reduce response times, even learning on-the-fly against ever
changing tactics, yet systems owners are reluctant to take advantage
of these opportunities. Are the tools immature, the business rules
inadequate, or do we still need “eyes on target”?

Network analysis techniques are essential to designing and
operating communications networks and information systems that
support critical missions, especially when employing commercial
technology. Network operators traditionally control traffic in their
networks and analyze traffic patterns by looking at data flows and at
control messages traversing their networks. However, networks and
systems supporting critical missions must also operate securely and
the protocols for securing systems inherently hide information that
would otherwise help network operators understand the behavior of
their networks. This gets further complex when traditionally private
networks evolve to using more commercial services and access
technologies in an increasingly mobile user environment. Many
basic network analysis techniques are in conflict with strategies
for securing networks and systems. This panel explores emerging
strategies for securing mission-critical systems and looks at
approaches to network analysis appropriate to secure assured
communications and assured information environments, including
those that involve commercial services.

Testing military electronic systems, particularly Electronic Warfare
systems, has become increasingly difficult due to several realities.
The first reality is the revenue potential of spectrum to the
government and to commercial operators purchasing licenses for
spectrum. As more spectrum is sold to commercial operators, less
spectrum is available to the military. The second is the nature of
recent warfare, in OEF and OIF enemy combatants used commercial
communication and network technologies for command and control
as well as triggering for IEDs. The technologies are easy to procure
and easy to use. Finally, irregular warfare and information operations
share common spectrum with commercial operators. The distinction
between military and commercial spectrum is vanishing. The
acquisition and development tasks and DOD spectrum management
tasks face increased challenges in supporting test and training
operations.

Military and civilian first responders and emergency officials are
constantly challenged to respond rapidly, while coordinating with
multiple government agencies, emergency personnel and affected
individuals. Newer technologies and omnipresent IP infrastructure
can enable unified alerting to facility-based and personal devices for
outbound communications, while collecting and tracking solicited
responses. Lessons learned from disasters also highlight the
need for inbound notifications from affected individuals. Reports
of a shooting or terrorist attack should facilitate automatic and
seamless transmission of supporting details such as a photo/video
of the event, its location and personal identification information.
Widespread adoption of smart devices provides military and civilian
personnel with extended capabilities, including geo-location and
multimedia support. Driven by the pressing need for efficient
emergency management, a convergence is emerging, where
inbound and outbound IP data flows enable effective ways to
intercommunicate with affected personnel. This panel will explore
this convergence and actions needed to accelerate it.

Spear the Unknown: Fulfilling the Promise of ReputationBased Security
Cyber attackers are getting smarter — hitting our military systems
with unique, targeted attacks not seen anywhere else in the world.
With hundreds of millions of these distinct, mutated threats
emerging each year, the U.S. military must augment its traditional
signature-based and heuristics tactics with efficient, context-based
cyber defenses that boast a much broader definition of context than
simple white lists and black lists.
The key — true reputation-based security — promises to reverse the
efficacy of stealthy, targeted attacks, and to create a virtuous spiral of
increasing IT security with reduced overhead. But which technological
strategies and solutions are best suited to fulfill this promise?
This MILCOM panel will examine the latest, most advanced tools
for using context and reputation-based techniques to identify and
block malware. In particular, panelists will discuss how Prevalence,
Emergence, Origin, Connectivity, and Experience form the five

This panel, representing senior United States Department of
Defense (DoD) organizations, are prepared to discuss policies,
processes, and programs focused on improving Tactical Data Link
(TDL) Joint, Allied, and Coalition interoperability. The United States
DoD, in support of the warfighter, is committed to improving Joint,
Allied and Coalition Interoperability. The Joint TDL Migration Plan
(JTMP) is DoD’s policy document for providing insights into the
DoD vision for migration from the perspective of the Office of the
Secretary of Defense (OSD) and the Joint Staff (JS). The DoD Chief
Information Office (CIO) is the lead DoD organization responsible
for communications policies, the Office of Under Secretary of
Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics (AT&L) oversees
acquisition, the JS coordinates warfighter requirements, and the
Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) enforces standards
all in the interest of the warfighter. Each of these organizations work
together, along with Service and other Agency experts to ensure
optimum interoperability capabilities are developed and fielded
to the warfighter. During the past several years, in order to find
advances in tactical communications, DoD has conducted a number
of studies and assessments, including the 2007 Joint Airborne
Networking (JAN) Study and the 2008, 2009, and 2010 Advanced
Tactical Data Link (ATDL) Assessments. More recently, the team
was responsible for leading the Joint Aerial Layer Network (JALN)
Analysis of Alternatives (AoA). This AoA was completed in 2011.
A follow-on effort, led by the JALN Council, provides a Joint forum
for integrating and synchronizing Service programs and initiatives
that advance development and fielding of JALN capabilities. These
studies and assessments, in concert with other OSD, JS, and Service
efforts, are integral in achieving more effective interoperable tactical
communications capabilities in the future. The results and impacts of
these studies and assessments referenced above will be discussed
by the team members who led these efforts. Their participation on
this panel will also offer the opportunity to share insights regarding
their organization’s scope and focus.

Cloud computing is an attractive metaphor for computation as
well as data storage, access, and management, freeing the end
user from worries about the location and management of the
resources they use. Cloud computing promises the user ubiquitous
access, scalability, and security without having to worry about
the administrative chores of managing hardware, upgrades, and
backups. The success of the cloud computing metaphor in the
commercial and enterprise environment has led the DoD community
to consider adopting clouds in the military environment as well.
However, military networks, especially tactical networks, differ
significantly from commercial networks, with limited bandwidth,
variable latency, and frequent disconnections causing partitions.
Given the nature of the military environment and networks, users
may be very interested and concerned about the location of their
data and resources - just the opposite of the commercial cloud user.
The objective of this panel is to examine the intersection of cloud
computing and tactical edge networks.

According to U.S. Director of National Intelligence James Clapper,
cyber attacks represents a preeminent threat to US security. A
newly released industry report by CyberSheath revealed that the
theft, misuse and exploitation of privileged accounts is a key tactic
in each phase of an APT attack cycle. These accounts provide wide
ranging access to every connected system — making them the most
powerful, and potentially damaging, accounts in any organization.
Attackers know this, which is why they’ve emerged as the priority
target and staging ground for major enterprise assaults, such as the
successful cyber-attacks on the U.S. Department of Energy, U.S.
Chamber of Commerce, and states like South Carolina. This panel,

account pathway’ hackers have travelled to perpetrate some of the
most devastating attacks in recent years, focusing on why securing
these accounts are critical to preventing the next APT.

The way we fight wars has changed over the past quarter-century--we
now anticipate most conflicts will involve coalition operations rather
than solely U.S. forces, yet the way we design and acquire systems
has not changed. We give lip-service to interoperability, including
interoperability with allies, but during requirements definition any
attempt to account for coalition partner access is deemed an added
requirement that the U.S. can't pay for and which will have to wait
until an international partner is identified to pay the bill associated
with incorporating their requirements into the design. This is an
inherently inefficient approach. We can field more effective systems
with efficient design and cost-sharing if we re-orient our mindset to
acknowledge that releasability is inherently a U.S. requirement.

Expeditionary operations require the establishment of an operational
forward-deployed chain of command made up of disperse deployable
headquarters (DHQs) to exercise command and control. Such
geographical dispersion is mission-dependent and may span from a
limited number of large DHQs to many dispersed small DHQs.
In-theatre communications interconnecting different DHQs
are nominally provided by SATCOMs supported by optional/
augmentation line-of-sight (LOS) terrestrial wireless transmission
systems. Operational requirements of modern expeditionary
operations are calling for potential enlarged geographical areas
of operation and for bandwidth-hungry mission-support C3
applications. NATO Allied Command Transformation and NATO C&I
Agency have been conducting research on the topic of intra-theatre
wireless communications in support of expeditionary operations,
as replacement and/or augmentation transmission services to
traditional SATCOM WAN bearers.
Given the constraints posed by expeditionary operations on
deployable intra-theatre WAN transmission systems, an enlarged
debate between representatives from the users’ community,
transmission scientists, and other stakeholders discussing the
problem and potential solutions is deemed pertinent.

Various challenges to bridging traditional radio systems whether in
a commercial or military and environment has been a goal difficult to
achieve for many year. Often the choice to overcome such challenges
falls upon a specific vendor to implement routing capabilities
inside a particular radio or modem platform either a Layer 2 or 3
of the OSI Architecture. These challenges for having a seamless
network convergence and path choice are often complicated for
many reasons. First, including the routing capabilities inside the
radio or modem do not allow for multiple radio systems of difference
vendors to converge quickly and adapt to changing RF or network
environments. Second such solutions often lead to proprietary
implementations often crossing over Layer 2 and 3 boundaries,
which prevent such intelligent path selection outside of the platform.
Third, interaction with standardized Layer 3 routing protocols often
is difficult due to the various configurations or timers, administrative
route cost and metrics not clearly defined to the overlaying routing
infrastructure. With the creation of RFC-5578 Radio Aware Routing
and the newer proposed RFC for Dynamic Link Exchange Protocol
(DLEP), the burden of path decision and link metric calculation
can be abstracted from the actual radio/ Modem and allot a
network router to perform accurate and rapid path section for an
MANET environment challenged by physical barriers and changing
parameters.

The ways people and information devices connect to the Internet
have significantly changed in recent years. Highly capable wireless
networks are fueling a revolution in the way people access and
share information, as the ‘wireless Internet’ continues to take form.
As the world’s dependence on wireless networking technologies
increases, the subject of wireless network security becomes both
increasingly important and challenging. While this remains an area
of active research in both academia and industry, the problem space
has morphed significantly over recent years with the increased
complexity of networks and consumer devices; the rise of smart
devices has led to an entire new set of security challenges. Whether
the military community is looking to adopt these technologies or
looking to deny these technologies to an adversary, these security
challenges are of particular interest.
This tutorial aims to provide attendees with practical knowledge
of how to both secure and attack several key commercial wireless
networking technologies. The tutorial will first provide attendees with
a theoretical treatment of wireless network security and information
operations. The tutorial will then provide an overview of many of
the key security software tools available to a network security

communication systems. These systems will enable two-way,
high-speed communications over Fixed Satellite Service satellites
operating in the Ku and Ka frequency bands. SOTM terminals use
very small antennas mounted on land vehicles. Currently, due to
the increased demand for broadband communications, there is a

for commercial and government applications. However, since
satellite spectrum is a shared resource regulations and standards
that support these systems will need to be developed.
This tutorial will discuss general characteristics of SOTM systems;
current regulations and standards that govern their operation;

This tutorial will: (a) provide an introduction to basic, single-spatialmode optical communication systems in fiber and free space, and (b)
explore the general advances and challenges associated with space
and mode division multiplexing, including OAM-based systems.
A well-followed approach for increasing the capacity in optical
communication systems is to increase the number of independent
data channels that are simultaneously transmitted in either freespace of fiber. This includes wavelength- and polarization division
multiplexing. More recently, there has been an exciting trend towards
space and mode division multiplexing, in which multiple independent
data channels can be transmitted on either parallel spatial channels
or on orthogonal propagating modes. Such approaches can exist
in free-space and in fiber systems. One particular approach to
multiplexing, transmitting and de-multiplexing orthogonal modes is
the use of the unique orbital angular momentum (OAM) of an optical
beam. A beam has a specific amount of OAM which can be described
as a unique twisting value of the phase front as the wave propagates,
for which different "twist" values can be orthogonal to each other.
The general and recent advances and challenges associated
with space and mode division multiplexing, including OAM-based
systems, will be explored as one of the major topics of this tutorial.

Recent years have witnessed the rapid emergence and development
of a wide variety of cognitive radio technologies as the intelligent,
flexible, and efficient spectrum accessing way to increase the
spectrum efficiency by enabling the secondary users (unlicensed
users) to opportunistically utilize the vacant spectrum which is not
used by the primary users (licensed users). The quality of service
(QoS) provisioning in wireless cognitive radio networks, which
is critical to a wide range of time-, reliability-, and/or throughputsensitive wireless communications networks applications,
encounters many new and challenging problems in that the QoS
performance of the secondary users is not only affected by the
time-varying wireless channels or links, but also constrained by
the uncertain incumbency of the primary users. In this tutorial, we
will address a number of key issues and challenges, as well as the
state-of-the-art theories and techniques for QoS-assurance wireless
cognitive radio networks. This tutorial will also cover a number

Tactical Command and Control during combat and surveillance
operations are example roles for which LTE and Femtocell
technologies can now be deployed, with their flexibility, robustness
and self-management capabilities making them suitable for many
harsh environments and rapid deployment scenarios.
Increasing numbers of equipment vendors and application
developers are eager to partner with commercial, military and
government organizations to develop bespoke solutions in areas
such as Private Networks; Networking in a Box; Intelligence
Gathering; Denial of Service; Nomadic Networks; Personnel and
Asset-monitoring systems – all of which have military and intelligence
gathering applications.
Rapid commercial uptake of LTE and Femtocell systems has led to
the development of a wide range of small form-factor solutions to suit
static, nomadic and fully mobile service provision requirements.
This increasing diversity of deployment scenarios coupled with
the relaxing of spectrum license rules in many regions means
that equipment vendors are expanding their solution portfolios
by providing more flexible capabilities that extend way beyond the
previous models of commercial service provision.

This tutorial will provide an overview of the tactical cloud, and provide
a deep dive into the open-source tools and design approaches
to implement a robust, scalable, secure cloud in a constrained
environment. We will focus on the cloud in the constrained (or
tactical) environment, especially as it pertains to processing,
analytics, and generating actionable information from the wealth
of data that's collected. Starting with a general overview of cloud
computing as it pertains to the constrained environment, we
will deep-dive into all layers of the cloud, from infrastructure and
hardware, up through data storage, security, and analytics, to the
service and presentation layer that makes the cloud mission-useful.
Focusing on the open-source Accumulo big data storage technology
originally developed by the NSA as the core of the data cloud and
OpenStack for deployment and management, we will discuss other
technologies and best practices to build a robust, scalable data
cloud for the constrained environment.
Participants in the tutorial will leave with a foundation in cloudcomputing terminology and architecture, and a broad knowledge
of the open-source cloud computing technologies available for
implementation.

In this tutorial we trace the development of spatially coupled sparse
codes on graphs, from their beginning as a way of constructing a
low-density parity-check (LDPC) convolutional code by applying an
unwrapping procedure to the parity-check matrix of an LDPC block
code, through the development of protograph-based methods for
identifying LDPC code ensembles with good asymptotic properties,
to the current perspective of edge-spreading and or spatially coupling
together a chain of protographs. The topics to be covered include the
following:
•Brief review of classical block and convolutional codes
•Review of LDPC block codes
•Protograph-based constructions of LDPC block codes
•Deriving LDPC convolutional codes from LDPC block codes - edgespreading or spatial coupling
•Encoding and decoding procedures for LDPC convolutional codes
•Asymptotic free distance growth rates and iterative decoding
thresholds for LDPC convolutional codes
•Code termination and the threshold saturation phenomenon spatially coupled codes
•Asymptotic minimum distance growth rates and iterative decoding
thresholds for spatially coupled codes
•Quasi-cyclic code designs for high-speed encoding and decoding
•Windowed decoding strategies for low latency, low complexity
decoding
•Pseudocodewords, absorbing sets, trapping sets, and error floor
performance for spatially coupled codes
•Open questions related to the possible adoption of spatially
coupled codes as industry standards
•A summary of recent results on spatially coupled codes
•A summary of applications of the spatial coupling concept to other
communication problems

2 CEUs: CompTIA Network+
2 CEUs: CompTIA Network+ In tactical mobile ad hoc networks, nodes (soldiers, vehicles, UAVs)
are constantly in motion and/or operate on limited power. When
nodes are in motion, links can be obstructed by intervening objects.
To conserve power, links are shut down periodically, resulting in
intermittent connectivity. Traditional routing approaches, which
assume stable end-to-end connectivity and drop packets when next
hop to destination is not available, do not work well with intermittent
connections. New protocols have been developed to handle this
case. Networks with applications that can tolerate delays beyond
conventional IP forwarding delays are referred to as delay/disruption
tolerant networks (DTN). In this tutorial, we will review different DTN
architectures and different protocol stacks proposed, including the
Bundle Protocol (BP), the Convergence Layer (CL) protocols. We will
also review the state of the art in routing in DTNs and categorize
these routing protocols based on information used, including
the latest in opportunistic routing and vehicular DTNs . Recent
developments in erasure coding, network coding and social networks
applied to DTNs are also described. Applications in DTNs related to
DOD missions will be briefly discussed. The tutorial also identifies
open research issues and intends to motivate new research and
development in the DOD Tactical Networks.
As of today, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM)
has been the dominant technology for broadband multicarrier
communications. However, in certain applications, such as cognitive
radios and uplink of multiuser multicarrier systems, where a
subset of subcarriers is allocated to each user, OFDM may be an
undesirable solution. In this tutorial, we address the shortcomings
of OFDM in these and other applications and show that filter bank
multicarrier (FBMC) could be a more effective solution. Although
FBMC methods have been studied by a number of researchers, some
even before the invention of OFDM, only recently FBMC has been
seriously considered by a few standard committees. The goal of this
tutorial is to bring this upcoming trend to the attention of the signal
processing and communications communities and to motivate more
research in this important area. Another important component of
this tutorial that may be of particular interest to MILCOM attendees
is the introduction of a new filter bank-based multicarrier spread
spectrum (FB-MC-SS) technique that has been recently developed
by the mentor of this tutorial. The tutorial presents applications of
this new technology in the general area of spread spectrum systems
(where it will be found to be superior to DS-SS and FH-SS) and also as
an underlay control channel for development of the future cognitive/
adaptive radios.

Today’s information-centric warfare demands highly dynamic, reliable
and available network infrastructure for timely information gathering
and delivery. Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) offer the solution
for a highly available tactical information infrastructure. WMNs are
now in their fourth generation of evolution. The tutorial will discuss
the generations of WMN evolution, the past design decisions, past
pitfalls, tactical WMN design, protocols for various layers and most
recent advances in this area. Foremost among them is the design
for network capacity in battlefield environments. There are several
factors that contribute to the capacity of WMNs. First among them
is the network architecture. Tactical network architectural design
should be application-specific. Second biggest factor that affects
the WMN capacity is the design of protocols. There exists no global
design strategy that works in all tactical applications. That makes
application-specific medium access control, routing, and transport
protocol design very important. Third main challenge in tactical WMN
is the spectrum and the physical layer related issues. Tutorial further
shows discusses most recent advances such as cognitive WMNs,
Small-World WMNs provide the desired capabilities of tactical WMNs.
Results from multiple case studies will show the traffic variations
under various emergency response situations that a WMN may
encounter.

This tutorial will introduce Program Office, system integrators and
other acquisition management personnel to the proper ways to
consider (E3) and Spectrum Supportability (SS) concerns in the DoD
systems acquisition process. As electronic systems have evolved,
they have become more complex, and E3 and spectrum certification
requirements have become critical factors in the ability to employ
military systems and platforms effectively. Reductions in the number
of military platforms and personnel and increased reliance on
technology means that controlling electromagnetic environmental
effects on weapon systems is critical to future U. S. military success.
Not accounting for E3/SS during systems design, production, and
integration can result in degraded systems performance, program
schedule delays, and funding issues. The objectives of this course
are to give attendees an awareness of how electromagnetic
environmental effects and spectrum supportability concerns
impact systems acquisition and to provide an understanding of the
tasks that must be undertaken during the acquisition process to
ensure compatibility. In particular, the Spectrum Supportability Risk
Assessment, a recently mandated requirement from DoDI 4650.01,
DoD Spectrum Use, will be highlighted - what it is, why it's important
and how to comply.

MILCOM AWARD
Joseph P. Macker
2013 AWARD RECIPIENT
2013 ieee milcom award for sustained technical achievement
The selection committee for the IEEE Military Communications Conference Award for
Sustained Technical Achievement is pleased to unanimously recommend Mr. Joseph P.
Macker as the recipient of the award in 2013. Since 1996, Mr. Macker has been a prolific,
consistent contributor of high-quality technical papers to MILCOM in the area of selforganizing and mobile Internet technology. He is the author/co-author of 35 publications in
the MILCOM conference record, including one or more papers in each of the last 17 meetings
of MILCOM. He has made numerous technical presentations at MILCOM. The impact of his
contributions is evidenced by the high citation count for many of his MILCOM papers.
Mr. Macker has been a technology leader for military wireless communication systems for
more than two decades. Several of his MILCOM papers report results from a particularly
notable project that resulted in pioneering work on efficient and reliable multicasting data
transport protocols. He is the co-author of the related Internet Standard RFC 5740. Designs
from this work have been used to disseminate and share data among large, dynamic groups
of receivers within a broad set of Internet-based architectural scenarios.
He received the NRL Alan Berman Research Publication Award for his 2010 IEEE Military
Communications Conference paper. The paper, titled “Multicast service discovery profiles for
deployment within dynamic edge networks,” is co-authored with Justin Dean, Ian Taylor, and
Andrew Harrison. He has twice served as a co-guest editor for the IEEE Journal on Selected
Areas in Communications on topics related to Military Networking and Communications and
on Wireless Ad Hoc Networks.
His primary research interests are in the following areas: self-organizing network protocol and
architecture design, multicast technology and data reliability, mobile wireless networking,
complex network theory and network structures, network modeling systems and tools,
cooperative software agents in ad hoc environments, collaborative networking, and
appropriate middleware services for dynamic networks.
Joseph P. Macker is a senior communication systems and network research scientist within
the Information Technology Division at the Naval Research Laboratory in Washington, D.C.
He presently leads the Protocol Engineering and Advanced Networking (Protean) Group,
which is investigating highly adaptive networking solutions for both mobile wireless and
wired networking architectures. He holds an M.S.E.E. from George Washington University in
Communications Theory and a B.S.E.E. from the University of Maryland, College Park.

2012 IEEE
MILCOM AWARD
JOHN M. SHEA
2012 AWARD RECIPIENT
CONGRATULATIONS,
JOHN SHEA!
2012 ieee milcom award for sustained technical achievement
Since 1999, John M. Shea has been on the faculty at the University of Florida, in the
Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, where he is currently an Associate
Professor. His research interests are in wireless communications, applications of
error-control coding, cross-layer design, collaborative and cooperative diversity, military
communications, hybrid ARQ and ad hoc networks.
Since 1996, Professor Shea has been a prolific, consistent contributor of high-quality
technical papers to MILCOM in the area of tactical wireless communications and networking.
He is the author or co-author of 33 publications in the MILCOM records, including one or
more papers in each of the last 17 MILCOM conferences. He has made numerous technical
presentations at MILCOM, including several invited presentations.
Professor Shea’s novel ideas and discoveries have provided a foundation and impetus
for the work of other researchers in tactical wireless communications and networks. He
and co-author Michael B. Pursley received the Fred W. Ellersick Award for best paper in the
Unclassified Technical Program at MILCOM 1996. That paper, along with his MILCOM papers
from 1997 and 1998, were developed into a series of highly cited articles that have appeared
in the IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications. The impact of his contributions
is evidenced by the high citation count for many of his MILCOM papers and the subsequent
scholarly journal articles based on ideas originally presented in his papers at MILCOM.
Professor Shea’s work reported in MILCOM papers represents an important part of the
outcomes from several key DoD-supported basic research projects addressing next
generation concepts in tactical wireless communications and networks. In 2010, he served
as the MILCOM Unclassified Technical Program Chair.
Professor Shea earned his B.S. degree in computer engineering and M.S. and Ph.D. degrees
in electrical engineering from Clemson University in 1993, 1995 and 1998, respectively.
