Signal
communications
CONTINUITY, SPEED,
SECURITY OF TRANSMISSION
The
role of signal communication is based on doctrinal attitudes and determination,
on organization, equipment and employment of the Royal Army, the complexity
of the armed struggle, the characteristics of our theater of war and the chain
of command. The purpose and missions of signal communications are to provide
reliable, continual and secure communications for command, fire control and the
other technical combat systems, which give the Royal Army a high degree of
combat readiness. To meet its demands, the system of signal communications has to
fulfill very severe conditions. It has to be timely planned, organized,
established, and able to meet the needs of command and control in peace,
national emergency, mobilization in the initial phase of war
and its further development. It must have adequate capabilities, to be economic
and efficient, to furnish continuity, necessary speed and secrecy of transmitted
information. Only the system based on the latest technology, technically well
equipped, integrated in the other systems of communications within the realm, well
maintained and resistant to all kinds of interference, flexible and suitable for
maneuvers can fulfill all these conditions. Besides, the properly trained crews
that should man it.
By an organizational build up and improvement of methods of work the Royal Army signal communications fulfills the new requirements of command and control.
The unification of
the stationary component of the communications system into a unique center
enabled its unified planning, distribution and rational use. This includes: the
regulation and employment of the unique method of work in stationary centers and
focal communications points into uniform control and analysis, better influence
on the quality and continuity; the uniform equipment and maintenance of all the
communications means and facilities. Such an organization of a stationary
communications system provides a high degree of continuity and meets the needs
of command and control which can be furnished by the means of communications at
the disposal within various elements of the stationary systems. In the mobile
centers the emphasis is on the improvement of training (of each individual
soldier or whole units),
the establishment of communication independently or in conjunction with the
stationary system.
The conditions under which the communications personnel operate are difficult
and differ from those under which the other units work. Namely, the signal
communications units and their elements are deployed all over the territory of
the United Kingdom of Cruiswieck, in all garrisons and at various signal
points. The system of communications operates all the time, 24 hours a day. It
is so organized that in case of a malfunction of any particular point or center,
the communication is diverted to the alternative direction. Particularly
difficult is the work on isolated points, where, due to the
optical visibility between the relay antennas, the communication points are
located mainly on inaccessible mountain peaks. Thanks to the professional
competence and attitude of the personnel, the communication in the Royal Army
is reliable and stable.
By combining the latest equipment,
updating and modernizing the old means of communications, the needs of the Royal
Army and the other users have been met successfully. But nevertheless,
due to rapid development of telecommunications in the world, the signal
communications personnel are in constant need to invest in the further updating
of their capabilities and in the improvement of quality. The improvement of the
tactical communications systems, within Special Forces units is focused on their
being equipped with the latest radio stations with crypto protection of oral
information and highly resistant to electronic interference.
