Introduction to Link 22
| Presented by: | Mr Tony Castle, SyntheSys |
  |
| Dates: | 28–29 August, 2008 |
|
| Venue: | Potts Point, Sydney NSW |
About Introduction to Link 22
This emerging TDL is seen as the replacement for Link 11 throughout NATO. The first implementation of Link 22 commenced in 2007. The course, which is based on STANAG 5522 and ADatP-33, will give students a sound theoretical knowledge of all aspects of Link 22 Operations.
The areas covered by the course include system architecture, network structures and an in depth look at the message catalogue and the capabilities provided by those messages.
Attendees will receive a copy of the Introduction to Link 22 manual plus a CD containing the course presentations.
Who should attend / Target audience
This course will provide attendees with a sound theoretical knowledge of all aspects of Link 22. The course is fundamental for military, government and defence industry representatives who will be involved with the introduction of this TDL. The course includes both operator (message capabilities) and engineering (system architecture and network structures) perspectives of Link 22.
