MILITARY SEALIFT COMMAND (MSC)

STATEMENT OF OBJECTIVES (SOO)

NEXT GENERATION WIDEBAND (NGW)

1. PURPOSE

Military Sealift Command (MSC) intends to implement the Next Generation Wideband (NGW) system to replace the current MSC Afloat Bandwidth Efficient Satellite Transport (BEST)

Commercial Satellite Communications (COMSATCOM) infrastructure. The BEST system has provided MSC with robust service connectivity for voice, data, and imagery, both secure and non-secure, for both classified and unclassified missions. The NGW system shall include space segment services, supporting hardware/software, transition, and lifecycle support services necessary to provide end-to-end Internet Protocol (IP) communications connecting the global

MSC maritime/mobile platforms to the two fixed shore-side MSC Continental United States

(CONUS) Network Operations Centers (NOC).

2. SCOPE

The NGW system solution set shall provide:

a. End-to-end IP communications pathway linking the globally deployed MSC ship and Mobile

Sealift Operations Centers (MSOC) van based voice and data networks to the MSC primary and backup point of presence (POP) NOCs located in San Diego, CA, and Pensacola, FL.

The pathway shall include space segment services and associated Land Earth Station (LES) infrastructure, shipboard terminal hardware, supporting software, and terrestrial backhaul infrastructure connecting the LES infrastructure with the NOCs.

b. BEST to NGW transition services.

c. Worldwide installation services.

d. Worldwide sustainment services.

3. PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVES

The NGW system solution set shall meet the following performance objectives:

a. Offers the flexibility to expand the per-ship voice and data communications capacity in an efficient and cost-effective manner to optimize:

i. Service availability and quality of service.

ii. Total primary committed information rate (CIR) and secondary burstable information rate

(BIR) bandwidth available to each ship. The preferred per-ship CIR is 64 Kbps

(symmetric), ideally providing assured access without contention, whether during session initiation or information transfer. The preferred per-ship minimum for BIR is 256 Kbps downlink / 128 Kbps uplink. MSC desires to maximize the amount of BIR bandwidth available within current budget constraints (see MSC Funding Profile attachment in section J).

iii. The ability to multicast large data packages (estimated maximum size of 500MB) to the fleet (e.g., software updates/patches/service packs).

iv. Coverage area (see attachment 1) with emphasis on the concentration areas (see attachment 1), commercial sea routes, and areas of publicly disclosed major Naval operations. Land mass coverage is littoral with the exception of the MSOC vans which operate inland occasionally (98% littoral, 2% inland).

b. Maximizes flexibility to maintain full service across the MSC fleet as ship deployments change locations (i.e. portability).

c. Offers the means to acquire additional capacity to support unanticipated growth in fleet size or per-ship consumption (i.e. surge).

d. Minimizes the role of shore and shipboard personnel in satellite communication (SATCOM) sustainment activities.

4. CONSTRAINTS
