SAN DIEGO, CA, UNITED STATES, August 12, 2026 – ANewswire – TrellisWare Technologies, Inc., a global leader in tactical communications, today announced a successful demonstration of advanced communications capabilities in support of the U.S. Army’s Next Generation Command and Control (NGC2) modernisation efforts. TrellisWare personnel supported over 1,100 radios enabled with its TSM® waveform, which was deployed in Project Convergence Capstone 6 (PCC6). Radios equipped with TSM supported the 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division, multinational partners from New Zealand, Australia, the United Kingdom and Canada, and a separate U.S. SGT Stout Air Defence unit.
PCC6 employed TSM-enabled radios in a variety of eight form factors including High Assurance multichannel manpacks and handhelds, single-channel Sensitive But Unclassified (SBU) handheld radios, high-powered vehicular radio heads, and an embedded module flown on a loitering communications relay platform.
As the Army modernises its C2 architecture to address evolving operational requirements, network adaptability and resiliency remain critical. TrellisWare’s waveform technologies delivered flexible, resilient communications across the demonstrations from permissive to highly contested environments, including extended communications range with UAS between large formations.
Demonstrated key technical and operational capabilities include:
• Wideband Scalability and Throughput — TrellisWare has introduced HDR+ to its TSM Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) waveform, delivering more than 50 Mbps of throughput while supporting scalable networks of 800+ nodes in complex operational environments.
• Spectrum Agility for Constrained Environments — When spectrum availability is constrained, the TSM waveform can scale down to operate within 1.2 MHz channels, maintaining robust networking in congested or spectrum-constrained environments.
• Modern Anti-Jam (A/J) Resiliency — The demonstrations showcased TrellisWare’s Katana™ waveforms that provide resilient, continuous connectivity in the presence of advanced adversarial jamming to address evolving electronic warfare threats.
• Wideband SDR Architecture – TrellisWare’s software defined radios (SDRs) can span over 1.5 GHz of total usable spectrum across UHF, L-band and S-band frequencies in a single radio architecture, providing increased spectrum flexibility while reducing the equipment burden on warfighters and tactical platforms.
• Multi-Nation, Multi-Vendor, Multi-Security-Level Interoperability – TrellisWare’s unique multi-vendor, multi-security SDR-based ecosystem was used to establish interoperability between U.S. and multinational forces using radios from multiple vendors and at different security levels.
“The U.S. Army’s NGC2 initiative needs communications technology that can perform reliably in complex and evolving operational environments,” said Matt Fallows, vice president, global business development & customer support. “Our work with the 4th Infantry Division, as well as concurrent work supporting the 25th Infantry Division and the 82nd Airborne Division, has shown that TrellisWare-enabled systems provide the most flexible, resilient and scalable tactical networking available today. “We remain committed to working with the Army as it moves forward with NGC2 and the future of tactical C2.”
With more than 225,000 systems in the field across a wide ecosystem of TrellisWare and partner tactical radios and unmanned systems, TrellisWare continues to broaden the reach of its mission-proven communications technology. The TSM waveform is an international interoperability standard that provides direct interoperability with coalition partners using TSM enabled systems, allowing seamless communications across multinational operations.
