Optical Communication is Viable
While optimum solutions are not currently available to fully resolve challenges with the scaled use of optical communication (OC) technology in military communication.
The Air Force and sister services will depend on the Internet of Military Things (IoMT) to improve joint effectiveness and better management of battlespaces across the air, land, and sea domains.
Space technology enables our way of life – each time a cell phone is used, a television is switched on, or when the fastest route to a given destination is needed, a constellation of satellites makes these benefits possible.
Characterized by a proliferation of technologies that alter the military balance of power, the over-the-horizon security environment will be disruptive and translate into a highly cluttered and congested operational environment for the Air Force.
