Boeing applied new anti-jamming technology to an existing military satellite. Boeing sent a government-developed, protected signal through the sixth Wideband Global Satcom (WGS-6) satellite last month, Boeing said in a news release Monday (http://bit.ly/1eDEecR). “Engineers confirmed that the signal met all targets for accuracy and strength.” The demonstration shows the technology “offers an affordable option for enhancing anti-jam communications using existing commercial and U.S. government satellites and terminals,” it said. Boeing plans to continue developing and testing the technology for compatibility with other terminals and systems this year, it said.
