Summary	Develop, test and evaluate a limited number of GPS-based auto-tracking antenna prototype systems to work with a NTIO developed prototype Line-of-Sight (LOS) radio. This new prototype capability, if successful, will provide a very cost effective communications system with 1-3MHz of bandwidth that could be used by both military tactical ground units and tactical UAV platforms as a medium range (5-25 miles) IP-based communications link. The primary goal of this R&D initiative is to conduct demonstrations of this new prototype capability to our Military customers during the NPS sponsored TNT exercises.
