Protected Tactical Enterprise Service (PTES) Protected Tactical Waveform (PTW) over Protected Tactical SATCOM-Global (PTS-G) Joint Hub Variant (JHV) Technical Capability Sources Sought Request for Information (RFI)
Description
Section I: Protected Tactical Enterprise Service (PTES) Description & Background
The Protected Tactical Enterprise Service (PTES) is the ground system segment of a system designed to provide an anti-jam (AJ) wideband Satellite Communications (SATCOM) capability. The initial use of PTES is intended for the tactical warfighter using the Wideband Global SATCOM (WGS) satellites. Later phases of the program will support other suitable satellites that can be a transponder for the Protected Tactical Waveform (PTW). PTES consists of components for the Joint Hub (JH), Mission Management System (MMS), Key Management System (KMS), Key Loading and Initialization Facility (KLIF), and Network Management System (NMS). A PTES JH functions in conjunction with user terminals to support PTW operations on its Forward Link (FL) and Return Link (RL). The initial JHs are being developed and deployed to support WGS operations. A Joint Hub Variant (JHV) will be developed along with MMS upgrades to support operations on other Geosynchronous Earth Orbit (GEO) SATCOM systems and are fielded at commercial GEO gateways.
The purpose of this RFI is to conduct market research on the expected cost, schedule, and required effort associated with modifying the WGS JH design for applications at commercial GEO gateways.
Section II: Joint Hub Variant (JHV) Efforts for Protected Tactical SATCOM- Global (PTS-G)
PTS-G is part of the United States Space Force (USSF) Space Warfighting Analysis Center-s (SWAC) Broadband Force Design that is proliferated at GEO but intended for lesser contested environments than PTS-R. PTS-G is Government Owned, Contractor Operated (GOCO) and will need PTES to extend PTW support to commercial GEO gateways. This requires additional ...
