Harris demonstrates Falcon radios using MUOS waveform

Harris Corp. has successfully used its Falcon radios with the Mobile User Objective System (MUOS) waveform.

"The calls validated the ability of the AN/PRC-117G, a fielded multiband manpack radio, to run the narrowband MUOS service with a software-only upgrade," said a Harris news release.

Harris is developing the MUOS waveform to operate on multiple Harris platforms, including the AN/PRC-117G; the AN/VRC-118 two-channel, Mid-tier Networking Vehicular Radio; and the AN/PRC-158 multi-channel manpack radio.
