Bent-Pipe NTN A non-terrestrial network payload architecture in which the satellite relays signals transparently between the feeder link and service link — performing frequency conversion and amplification only — with all RAN… Concept/Framework Block Storage Block Storage is a storage model that presents data as fixed-size blocks for use by operating systems and applications. It provides low-level storage access for filesystems and similar consumers. Service Model Blue Force Tracking A friendly-force position tracking system that continuously reports GNSS-derived location data from equipped vehicles and units to a shared situational display, reducing fratricide risk and improving coordination through shared friendly-force… Concept/Framework Bridge to Network Integration Bridge to Network Integration is the integration of vessel bridge systems with onboard or external network services for operational connectivity and data exchange. It links navigation operations with communications systems… Operations Broadband Access Network A broadband access network is the access-layer communications system that provides broadband connectivity from the service provider or enterprise edge to the customer or site. It includes access nodes, last-mile… Service Model Broadcast Domain Broadcast Domain is the set of network devices that receive a Layer 2 broadcast frame within the same forwarding scope. Concept/Framework Broadcast Service Broadcast Service is a communication service that sends the same content from one source to many receivers at the same time. It is optimized for shared distribution. Service Model BVLOS Operations The operation of an uncrewed aircraft system beyond the range at which its remote pilot can maintain direct unaided visual contact, requiring a long-range command-and-control link, detection and avoidance capability,… Concept/Framework C4ISR The umbrella military capability category encompassing command, control, communications, computers, and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance, treated as integrated systems supporting commanders' decision-making and situational awareness. Concept/Framework Carrier Aggregation Carrier Aggregation is a wireless technique that combines multiple frequency carriers to increase bandwidth and data capacity. It allows one service to use more than one carrier resource simultaneously. Protocol
