Brief description

Military command and control in line with the STANAG 4406 NATO standard. The R&S®MMHS military message handling system covers broadband communications on land, via satellite and, above all, radiocommunications as specified in STANAG 4406 Annex E.
Exchanging information via radio networks requires taking specific radio characteristics into account, especially if limited bandwidth is available. Rohde & Schwarz has been developing and manufacturing radios for decades, acquiring extensive know-how that the company now incorporates into MMHS development.

Features & benefits
