O futuro das comunicações na MB: sistemas digitais para comando e controle como fator de interoperabilidade na Marinha do Brasil

Abstract

Doctrinally, the C2 activity has a major role in the success of any military activities, in order to communications are vital for military missions. The technological development achieved by humankind in Information Technology has one of its mainstays, but it requires adequate physical and logic digital infrastructure in any process of processing and transmission of information. In the information age in which mankind lives, digital systems allow operational military means to exchange information with each other and are considered essential for the realization of C2 activity. In this context, it can be said that the efficiency and effectiveness of digital systems are directly linked to their mutual connectivity capacity, without which any communication will occur, meaning the use of systems built according to the concept Command, Control, Communication, Computers and information, or C 4 I, already established, applied according to the approach of C2 called Network Centric Warfare. Thus, considering the importance of the subject and that connectivity is an essential feature to exchange operationally useful information between digital systems of the MB and the other military individual employees in the C2 activities, it is necessary that their engineering processes applied in its construction and operational application follow a standard, ie only follow basic rules of physical modeling (hardware) and / or logical (software) designed to assure that these digital systems are a factor of effective interoperability in the military. This work conducted the survey and analysis of eight recommendations, considered essential to be adopted in digital systems for C2 the MB as a way to ensure that the future of communications in the MB are interconnectable digital systems to each other and also, with their digital systems of other unique military.
