Research abstract
W5's N171-098 SBIR effort is to ensure information dominance by providing our warfighters with fast and reliable communication links ANYWHERE in the world. To achieve this goal, W5 has proposed augmenting the Mobile User Objective System (MUOS) coverage with MUOS call processing payloads in Low Earth Orbit (LEO). This is made possible by miniaturizing W5's Mighty MUOOS, the worlds first and only MUOS System emulator.
