IEWS Concept of Operations IEWS CONOPS: Synchronization of organic and non-organic EW capabilities Protecting personnel, platforms, and systems from various RF initiated weapons (e.g., RCIEDs) Denying or disrupting of enemy RF comms networks while minimizing the risk of frequency fratricide Achieving situational awareness of the electromagnetic environment and EW capabilities through networked tools and data bases IEWS will provide commanders with an organic EW capability to shape the battlespace by dramatically improving a land force s ability to seize, retain, and exploit an advantage within the electromagnetic spectrum (EMS) 2
EW Planning & Management What is Electronic Warfare Planning and Management? EWO integrates the Electronic Attack (EA), Electronic Protect (EP), and Electronic Warfare Support (ES) functions. Enables Multi-Function Electronic Warfare and Defensive Electronic Attack synchronization. Supports overall mission command by adding the Electromagnetic Order of Battle to the fight. Electronic Attack (EA) Offensive Attack Defensive Attack Electronic Protection (EP) Spectrum Management Frequency Deconfliction Electronic Warfare Spt (ES) EW Battle Management Planning Management MFEW DEA EWPMT Benefits to the Warfighter Brings 29 Series Soldiers into the virtual command post (CP CE) and decreases reliance on non-integrated tools (MS Office tools). Allows EWO to brief the commander his/her plan via the Mission Command computing environment for coordinating, managing, and de-conflicting unit EW activities. Coordinates and synchronizes EW operations across the G-2/3/6. 3
Assured Positioning, Navigation and Timing (A-PNT) Purpose: The purpose of the A-PNT capability is to provide Army forces with unhindered access to trusted Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) under all conditions. Products: Assured PNT contains four (4) subprograms: 1. Mounted PNT- robust integrated multi-sensor system for vehicular applications. Maintains an accurate PNT solution and distributes it to all users on the platform. Payoff: Assured PNT capability for Soldiers & combat systems. Ability to obtain and trust PNT information critical to complex combat operations. Ability to avoid or prevent unnecessary or accidental injury or destruction. Ability to seamlessly use advanced weapon systems and tactics. 2. Dismounted PNT low-swap multi-sensor PNT system for the soldier. 3. Pseudolites Area protection for large numbers of users. Augments GPS with terrestrial transmission of a GPS-like navigation signal that can be used by military GPS receivers with the necessary software. 4. Anti-Jam Antennas - Point protection for critical users. Enables GPS signal acquisition and tracking in challenged environments. 4
Introduction to CESMO Many modern and future signals of interest are difficult to detect and geo-locate (COMEXT & ELINT) Real-time data sharing and cross-cueing between collection assets can help to overcome this - Exploit the advantages of diverse electronic surveillance sensors e.g. stand in & stand off. CESMO is a NATO standard to address this challenge COMINT Reporting Standard (STANAG 4658 and AEDP 13) ELINT Reporting Standard (STANAG 4633 and AEDP 14) DEFENSE DAILY OPEN ARCHITECTURE SUMMIT 5
NAVWAR CONSTRUCT NAVWAR is the conduct of military actions to assure Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT) information superiority to the alliance. (STANAG 4621) NAVWAR is both offensive and defensive supported by surveillance, intelligence and analysis. These operations, include Electronic Surveillance (ES) and/or Electronic Intelligence (ELINT) Build NAVWAR SA via CESMO to network autonomously, within national restrictions Fusion, final processing and detailed analysis is conducted in coordination with analysts (NAVWAR Analysis Cell (NWAC)) located in the SIGINT EW Ops Center (SEWOC) and Joint All Source Info Cell (JASIC) DEFENSE DAILY OPEN ARCHITECTURE SUMMIT 6
