Traditional tactical communications systems consist of a number of separate subsystems with little interworking between them and with external sensors and weapons systems. Combat net radio (CNR) has provided the high-mobility communications required by combat troops, while trunk communications systems have provided high-capacity communications between headquarters at the expense of mobility. The focus of this book is on new, information-age technologies that promise to offer seamless integration of real-time data sharing, creating a single logical network architecture to facilitate the movement of data throughout the battlespace. Because the structure of this network is constrained by the fundamental trade-off between range, mobility and capacity that applies to all communications systems, this network is unlikely to be based on a single network technology. This book presents an architecture for this network, and shows how its subsystems can be integrated to form a single logical network.

Are you fed up with lengthy texts and boring reading? Would you rather focus on the important contents and view them in a visual way? Then this is the perfect solution for you! This book helps you to find the right words in difficult situations, communicate with tact and finesse, and establish an image of confidence and power. You will find dozens of useful examples and easy-to-remember phrases and scripts that will enable you to achieve professional success by mastering a variety of skills including: Communicating with Power and Authority Managing and Leading Persuading and Motivating This book was created in part by the internationally acclaimed author Dan O'Connor - the man behind the now famous Tactical Communication Training System. The co-author, Vanessa Lusian, is a leading figure in the field of innovation and has "translated" the teaching into visual language which enables you to put the tactics into action with little time and effort investment.

Reflecting the recent increased interest in studying influence processes, this work offers the reader a multi-disciplinary and multi-national perspective by leading scholars in cognition, social psychology, organizational behaviour and interpersonal communication.

Providing a complete description of modern tactical military communications and networks technology, this book systematically compares tactical military communications techniques with their commercial equivalents, pointing out similarities and differences. In particular it examines each layer of the protocol stack and shows how specific tactical and security requirements result in changes from the commercial approach. The author systematically leads readers through this complex topic, firstly providing background on the architectural approach upon which the analysis will be based, and then going into detail on tactical wireless communications and networking technologies and techniques. Structured progressively: for readers needing an overall view; for those looking at the communications aspects (lower layers of the protocol stack); and for users interested in the networking aspects (higher layers of the protocol stack) Presents approaches to alleviate the challenges faced by the engineers in the field today Furnished throughout with illustrations and case studies to clarify the notional and architectural approaches Includes a list of problems for each chapter to emphasize the important aspects of the topics covered Covers the current state of tactical networking as well as the future long term evolution of tactical wireless communications and networking in the next 50 years Written at an advanced level with scope as a reference tool for engineers and scientists as well as a graduate text for advanced courses

Tactical Communication for Law Enforcement and Security is the ultimate guide to conflict resolution. Designed with police officers in mind, but filled with tools and techniques that anyone can use, topics include how to approach people and start a conversation, how to deal with difficult people, how to recognize the different personality types, and how to handle complaints. Plus much, much more.
