  1. USCG Vertical UAVSpectrum Issues Gary Dehnel UAS Acquisitions Program Manager October 31, 2006

  2. Integrated Deepwater System • Performance Based: • Focus on capabilities not assets • Not a one for one replacement • Acquisition Strategy: • Partnerwith system integrator • Acquireintegrated system ofsurface, air, C4ISR, and logisticssystems Overarching Objective: Maximize Operational Effectiveness while Minimizing Total Ownership Costs

  3. HV-911 (Bell Eagle Eye)

  4. Electromagnetic Emissions TCDL RADAR Secondary Control Link UCARS Voice Radio Radar Altimeter Transponder

  5. TCDL • Tactical Common Data Link • Aircraft flight (except landing) • Radar (control & imagery) • EO / IR camera (control & imagery) • ARC-210 voice radio (control and voice comms) • Transponder control • 10 W aircraft, 2 W cutter • 14.3 GHz – 15.3 GHz • Directional antennas on aircraft and cutter • 1.3° • Status: Draft Application for Equipment Frequency Allocation (DD Form 1494)

  6. Secondary Control Link • TCDL backup • Flight control, navigation, and air-air radar only • 2.5 W • 1,760 - 1,780 MHz aircraft • 1,825 – 1,845 MHz cutter or land • Omni antenna • Status: • NTIA-44 Stage 2 (Experimental) • “No EMC problems are anticipated”

  7. UCARS Unmanned aerial vehicle Common Automatic Recovery System • Manufacturer: Sierra-Nevada • Precision landing system • Cutter based • Shore based • Meets shipboard and airborne E3 requirements • Mil-Stds-461 & 464

  8. UCARS • Airborne System (Transponder) • 34.82 – 35.12 GHz • Directional: 45° horizontal, 20° vertical • 88 Mw mean power, 125 Mw peak power • Ship System (Radar) • 34.93 – 35.0 GHz • Quasi-directional: ±130° horizontal, 70° up, 10° down • 0.4 Mw mean power, 1.0 Mw peak power • Status: Draft Application for Equipment Frequency Allocation (DD Form 1494)

  9. RADAR • Telephonics RDR-1700CG • Air to sea • Air to air • Weather • 9,200 – 9,500 MHz • ± 90° horizontal, 20° up, 40° down • 1,000 W peak power

  10. RADAR • Status: • NTIA-44 Stage 2 (Experimental) • “EMC problems may be manageable in fixed frequency mode” • “Electromagnetic compatibility could be problematic in the frequency-agile mode”
