Soldier's local area network terminal: Slant

This proposal addresses the design, interface and application of the Soldier's Radio: a lightweight, miniature module to attach to and interoperate with the GPS and Soldier's Computer under development, with input/output and control interfaces appropriate to the field. The critical problem is provision of a man-machine interface which will be transparent to the user, and of intra-squad and inter-squad voice, data and imagery communications, to support the soldier as a node in a network.
