BAE Launches New Deployable Network

Node-Based NetVIPR Promises Adaptability, Resilience

BAE Systems‘ Digital Intelligence division has launched a new deployable digital network solution for defence customers.

NetVIPR will provide resilience and adaptability to deployed forces by decentralising the network and replacing traditional data hubs and digital-connection spokes with nodes carried on different platforms in the battlespace, able to share data via a variety of available methods. Should one node become available – perhaps because its platform has been destroyed or damaged – mission data will automatically be re-routed via other nodes.

By avoiding reliance on any one data transfer technology (satellites, physical cables) and ensuring each node is configured to automatically find the best available communication channel, the product ought to maximise data-transfer rates while minimising any potential down time. The system is built in software, and can be loaded onto existing military communications equipment. The company says it has “demonstrated the network management interface,” meaning that customers will be able to configure and monitor their own integrations of the system onto extant radios and other communications infrastructure.

Building deployable communications networks in an operational battlespace is a complex challenge,” explained Dave Sullivan, development lead for the product. “NetVIPR is a software solution providing an intelligent, flexible and secure network that can be deployed from Command Headquarters all the way down to uncrewed air vehicles or other new autonomous platforms.
