Benefit:
The proposed effort will improve the SNR and dynamic range performance of BFTN Resilient Command and Control System Enhancement (BRSE) with RoCCE in congested and contested environments by automatically adapting the RFIM strategy to the changing interference environment. Since the proposed WISDOM system is suitable for operation in any frequency band and with RFIM devices operating anywhere along the radio receive chain, the technology can be applied to commercial systems, such as 5G to provide dynamic RFIM to address increasing user density and increased spectrum sharing, commercial SATCOM, and critical public safety communication systems and networks.

The proposed Phase II technical effort matures the design of and implements a prototype of WISDOM. Implemented as a collection of microservices within a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), WISDOMs software architecture flexibly supports a variety of different platforms, readily extends to manage novel interference excision systems (IES), federates across networks when available, and disaggregates and customizes so that WISDOM can be deployed in part or in whole and scaled according to platform resources. The effort extends and update algorithms, adds spectral awareness capabilities, prototypes WISDOM in hardware and software, extends the WISDOM testbed, and introduces networked and federated services. The Phase II effort will target an initial application of WISDOM to BFT+.

Benefit:
The proposed effort will improve the SNR and dynamic range performance of communications in congested and contested environments by automatically adapting the interference excision strategy to the changing interference environment. Since the proposed WISDOM system is suitable for operation in any frequency band and with interference excision systems (IES) s operating anywhere along the radio receive chain, the technology can be applied to commercial systems, such as 5G to provide dynamic IES to address increasing user density and increased spectrum sharing, commercial SATCOM, and critical public safety communication systems and networks. The framework on which WISDOM is designed will allow the WISDOM concept, originally targeted to optimizing interference excision to commercial applications where a smart controller examines input data and makes an optimal selection.
