Cognitive Radio A radio system capable of autonomously sensing its RF environment and dynamically reconfiguring its own transmission parameters — frequency, power, modulation, bandwidth — in response to detected spectrum occupancy and… Concept/Framework Collision Domain Collision Domain is the set of network nodes where simultaneous transmissions can interfere with one another on a shared medium. Concept/Framework Command and Control The exercise of authority and direction by a designated commander over assigned forces or assets toward mission accomplishment, encompassing the decision-making process and the communications infrastructure, systems, and procedures that… Concept/Framework Command Protocol A command protocol is a protocol specification or operational convention that defines how commands are encoded, transmitted, validated, and executed by a recipient system. It is used to deliver control… Protocol Committed Information Rate Committed Information Rate is the guaranteed average data throughput that a service provider commits to deliver over a defined period or service path. Operations Connection State Connection State is the stored information that describes an active or previously observed communication relationship between endpoints. Operations Content Caching Onboard Vessel Content Caching Onboard Vessel is the storage of frequently used content on a vessel so it can be served locally and reduce repeated external transfers. Software Contention Ratio Contention Ratio is the ratio between the total capacity shared by multiple users and the committed or guaranteed capacity available to each user or service group. Operations Coverage Coverage is the extent to which a service, signal, or network is available or usable across a geographic or operational area. Operations Coverage Extension Coverage extension is the deliberate increase of a network’s service area through new infrastructure, new beams, relays, or redesigned access topology. Concept/Framework
