EMS Superiority Concepts: Maneuvering, Engaging and Surviving in the Spectrum

Course Description

Unlock the secrets of Electromagnetic Spectrum Operations (EMSO) with our comprehensive course on EMS Superiority Concepts: Maneuvering, Engaging, & Surviving in the Spectrum. Gain a cross-level understanding of the Electromagnetic Operating Environment (EMOE) and master warfighting applications, spectrum management, and EMS strategy. Dive into Radio Frequency (RF) basics for communication, radars, and sensors, as well as Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS). Explore cutting-edge technologies like Directed Energy (DE) and High-Powered Microwave (HPM). Understand adversary perspectives on EMS and engage in practical testing and training in complex EMS environments. Hands-on applications reinforce the essential concepts presented.
