Using the Telemetry Application of TENA and Other JMETC Tools in Joint Distributed LVC Environments

Abstract

The TENA SDA has developed and validated a common architecture called TENA, which provides for real-time software system interoperability using the TENA Middleware, as well as interfaces to existing range assets, C4ISR systems, and simulations. The TENA Middleware, currently at Release 6.0.3, has been used by the range community for testing, evaluation, and feedback in many major exercises since 2002 and has been selected as the interoperability solution in JMETC's distributed testing. Through investment in TRMC's T&E/S&T Program and innovative use by Pacific Missile Range Facility (PMRF) and White Sands Missile Range (WSMR), TENA is expanding to the Telemetry community.
