Primary Link-16 functions include exchange of friendly unit position and status data, the dissemination of tactical surveillance track data, and the control\/management of air, surface, and subsurface engagements. Because Link-16 will play an integral part in the network-centric Joint Battlespace Infosphere (JBI), the performance of Internet Protocol version six (IPv6) and IP Security (IPSec) over Link-16 needs to be determined. IP packets also afford additional security measures within the JBI. Using OPNET modeling software to simulate a Link-16 network, the investigation of this research revealed that the overhead from IPv6 and IPSec does not significantly affect end-to-end delay and effective throughput of the Link-16 network. As long as the encryption and authentication protocols are preprocessed, these protocols add minimal amounts of latency overhead to the Link-16 network. However, as the offered load is extended beyond the 90 % level, the overhead from the IPSec extensions begins to have more of a negative effect on the End-to-End delay and throughput. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Biblioscholar","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47598903230615,"sku":"9781288282715","price":5102.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781288282715.webp?v=1775002434","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/internet-protocol-over-link-16-9781288282715","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
