Abstract :
The Simulation Environment for Analysis of Mobile Large Scale Simulation (SEAMLSS) has been adapted and used towards quantification of technical requirements for the Joint Tactical Radio System. This synthetic modeling and simulation environment is being used as a means of describing the Joint, Combined and Service´s future Operational Requirements for communication systems. This is achieved through the definition of high fidelity military scenarios modeling the military in performance of missions with realistic use of the communications network. The scenarios are run through simulation to compute the impact of the communications network on the completion of militarily relevant tasks such as calls for fire and dissemination of NBC alerts. Case studies from JTRS analyses are presented along with an examination of the overall architecture of the M&S system
