STONewsArchive: Interoperability within Unmanned Ground Systems and C2

Title: Interoperability within Unmanned Ground Systems and C2
Start_Publishing: 01/03/2021
Panel_Page: IST
Page_ID: 3794
Main_Body_Multi: Interoperability standards development will accelerate NATO Nations’ advance of unmanned ground systems through the development of hardware and software. These will act as a ‘pool’ of matured and evaluated interoperable systems and subsystems that perform a specific set of functionalities, leveraging common software middle-ware(s) that are supported and used by a large community, and, thus, offering vast amounts of functionalities. This common set of matured and evaluated interoperable robotic functionalities, as well as a common rule-set for the arrangement of the software packages and interface definitions, will ultimately lead to interoperability between robots of all NATO Nations.



 
The Information Systems Technology (IST) Panel established a Research Task Group (RTG) aimed at planning and implementing a capability concept demonstrator (CCD) to leverage these standards and validate the compatibility chain from the acquisition of ISR data on the UGV up to the end user terminal of a C2 system. Based on an agreed set of standards, each participating Nation was able to implement the CCD for their particular UGV and C2 system.



 
This activity not only successfully achieved the planning and implementation of the CCD, but also identified related NATO activities and other potential collaborators, including the @European Defence Agency (EDA), which will further synergy and interoperability among UGS for C2 and, thus, generate results with a higher impact.
