MUOS High Power Amplifier (MHPA)

For AN/PRC-155 Manpack Radios

Converged voice and IP data services Overview


The MUOS High Power Amplifier (MHPA) is an appliqué for the AN/
Crystal clear voice quality PRC-155 2-Channel Manpack radio. The MHPA replaces the standard
High Power Amplifier (HPA) on either channel of the AN/PRC-155
Manpack radio. With the MHPA attached, the AN/PRC-155 Manpack
Dial-up voice calls to any other MUOS terminal or radio becomes MUOS enabled providing a worldwide satellite-based
SCIP-enabled DISN (land line) phone worldwide communications capability, derived from 3GPP UMTS cellular technology.
The route and retrans capability enables disparate networks, using legacy
waveforms to be connected through the MUOS satellite system.
Group communications mode The combination of the AN/PRC-155 Manpack radio and MHPA
provides dismounted soldiers voice and data communications
while “on the move” using a lightweight, low-profile antenna.
Virtually unlimited communications range There is no need to stop, setup or position special antennas.

Data communications via any other MUOS terminal


The First MUOS Ground Terminal for the Military
worldwide and access to designated The MHPA provides users with powerful new ways to communicate
with each other and with higher command authorities. Several voice
SIPRNET or NIPRNET servers communications modes allow for both cell-phone like voice calls to
other individual users or PTT talk groups of almost unlimited size and
Voice and data MUOS to Legacy Waveforms Route geographic dispersal, as supported by the MUOS satellite system.
& Retrans (bridging) The system also allows users to connect a standard laptop to the terminal
and login to a SIPRNET or NIPRNET server from virtually anywhere in
the world. Seamless Teleport services allow calls to be made to landline
Classified up to Top Secret and terrestrial networks just as easily as to other MUOS terminals.
