Product Name: Network Centric Waveform (NCW)
Manufacturer Name: L3Harris Technologies
Product Description: The Network Centric Waveform (NCW) is an advanced multimedia transport system designed to facilitate full-mesh, packet-switched IP communication networks via SHF transponded geosynchronous satellites, including the Wideband Global Satellite constellation. This robust network architecture supports up to 255 SATCOM terminals, with one terminal designated as the Network Controller, responsible for network time synchronization and overall control. Depending on their configuration and performance capabilities, certain terminals can take on the Network Controller role and function as store-and-forward hubs, enabling seamless communication for network members unable to establish direct single-hop connections.
