Networks such as 3G, WiMax or LTE by giving examples, not enough for the U.S. military.They are looking for an even faster network that could be used by troops in the coming years. As they say, if you want something done right, do it yourself.
The Pentagon has made that statement very seriously, which is why one of its agencies,DARPA known, will create an ultra fast wireless network that is much faster than optical fiber networks that we use today.
How fast? Well, with a speed of 100Gbps. As a comparison, the current LTE networks have a speed of 0.03 Gbps, so insurance we can get an idea.
But this does not end here, because the idea is to have a high speed data transmission even over long distances, say 200 miles between two planes and about 100 miles between aircraft and ground vehicles.
The biggest problem: time. This new network must be able to operate in any weather, be it snow, rain, sun, amid a sandstorm, etc. The only way to achieve this is to use radio frequencies because the other wireless technologies do not have the required scope or need an unobstructed path.
Currently, the military network is secure TCDL reaching a speed of 10.7 Mbps at distances of 200 km, which is not enough.
Will have to see what happens to the DARPA invented for this new project.
