2. ABSTRACT
The project entitled ARMY, NAVY AND AIRBORNE APPLICATION SYSTEMS "
mainly deals with RUGGED products. The term RUGGED stands for strongly made and
capable of withstanding rough handling. And the product with the above conditions
undergoes the process of RUGGEDISATION which include various steps such as strong
vibrations, extreme temperatures and wet or dusty conditions. They are designed from
inception for the type of rough use typified by these conditions, not just in the external
housing but in the internal components and cooling arrangements as well. In this project, we
incorporate features such as fully sealed keyboards to protect against intrusion by dust or
liquids, and scratch-resistant screens that are readable in direct sunlight. These products can
also resist fire upto some extent. Virtually all rugged computers share an underlying design
philosophy of providing a controlled environment for the installed electronics. These
products also undergo extreme tests like vibration test, bump test, temperature test and drop
test.

4. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In a competitive business environment, understanding who your target market is where they
are visiting online and what their search patterns are can mean the difference between playing
the game and sitting on the sidelines. This report has been formulated to provide you the
market intelligence to change the direction in your game strategy if need be, or to identify
new opportunities and directions to increase your business profitability.
The key is to leverage this competitive advantage and deliver what the customer wants, in the
right quantities, and at the right locations. This report has been created using a technique
name RUGGEDIZATION which stands to: Tough Products for Tough Environments.
The following is an analysis of our current project based on ruggedization.
This Army, Navy & Airborne Application Systems report will help to manufacture tough
products which have a capability to withstand in harsh environment.

Standards:
MIL-STD-810: a military standard, issued in 1962, which establishes a set of tests for
determining equipment suitability to military operations. Often used as a reference in the
commercial laptop industry.
MIL-S-901: a military standard for shock which applies to equipment mounted on ships.
Two levels apply. Grade A items are items which are essential to the safety and continued
combat capability of the ship. Grade B items are items whose operation is not essential to
the safety and combat capability of the ship but which could become a hazard to
personnel, to Grade A items, or to the ship as a whole as a result of exposure to shock
Qualification testing is performed on a barge floating in a pond where TNT is detonated
at various distances and depths in the pond to impart shock to the barges.

IS (Intrinsic Safety)

Wireless Connectivity:
Wireless capability is a key requirement for most enterprise mobility applications, and it has
been reported that wireless-transmission failure rates are three times higher for non-rugged
notebooks compared to rugged units. This difference is attributed to the greater experience of
rugged-notebook vendors at integrating multiple radios into their products. Each transmission
failure leads to five to ten minutes in lost productivity as the user has to re-login to the
network through a VPN.
Since enterprises are turning to cellular networks to enable full-time connectivity for their
users, major vendors of rugged computers offer both built-in wireless LAN and wireless
WAN capabilities, and partner with cellular carriers as part of their offerings. During the
handoff between the various wireless LAN and wireless WAN connections, a mobile
VPN allows the connection to persist, creating an always-connected infrastructure that is
simpler for the user and eliminates application crashes and data loss.

As I had explained about ruggedization in the above sections, our project entitled Army,
Navy & Airborne Application Systems is comprised of three systems. Since there are many
no. of applications related to our project, we have chosen the below mentioned systems as
applications in military and naval aviances. And they are as follows:
I.
II.
III.
Access Control Lists (ACL) provide packet filtering for IPv4 frames (based on address,
protocol, Layer 4 protocol port number or TCP control code), IPv6 frames (based on address,
next header type, or flow label), or any frames (based on MAC address or Ethernet type). To
filter incoming packets, first create an access list, add the required rules, and then bind the list
to a specific port.
Rugged Laptop Based Consoles are based on the industry standard Intel Core i7-
2600 processor which meets the installable demand for increased performance from users
running multiple software 3applications simultaneously. These new Intel Core i7 processors
deliver more performance without using more energy.
Advanced Mother Board which has all the electronics of the computer including
Memory, HDD Interface, Serial Ports, etc., thus a simple replacement of the Micro-ATX
Mother Board can solve a variety of field failures. Read on to find more about the
outstanding features of Rugged Laptop Based Console.

Use the IDE HDD Auto Detection option to correct the HDD type.
In case the CMOS entry is correct and stills the HDD does not respond then either the HDD
controller, or HDD cables or HDD is bad. Also make sure the DC supply voltage (+5), (+12)
and (-5) are correct.

History:
Ethernet was the result of the research done at Xerox PARC in the early 1970s. Ethernet later
evolved into a widely implemented physical and link layer protocol. Fast Ethernet increased
speed from 10 to 100 megabits per second (Mbit/s). Gigabit Ethernet was the next iteration,
increasing the speed to 1000 Mbit/s. The initial standard for Gigabit Ethernet was produced
by the IEEE in June 1998 as IEEE 802.3z, and required optical fiber. 802.3z is commonly
referred to as 1000BASE-X, where -X refers to either -CX, -SX, -LX, or (non-standard) -ZX.
For the history behind the "X" see Fast Ethernet.

70 | P a g e
1000BASE-X
1000BASE-X is used in industry to refer to Gigabit Ethernet transmission over fiber, where
options include 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX, 1000BASE-LX10, 1000BASE-BX10 or the
non-standard -EX and -ZX implementations.
1000BASE-CX
1000BASE-CX is an initial standard for Gigabit Ethernet connections with maximum
distances
of
25
meters
using
balanced
shielded
twisted
pair
and
either DE-
9 or 8P8Cconnector (with a pinout different from 1000BASE-T). The short segment length is
due to very high signal transmission rate. Although it is still used for specific applications
where cabling is done by IT professionals, for instance the IBM Blade Center uses
1000BASE-CX for the Ethernet connections between the blade servers and the switch
modules, 1000BASE-T has succeeded it for general copper wiring use.
1000BASE-KX
1000BASE-KX is part of the IEEE 802.3ap standard for Ethernet Operation over Electrical
Backplanes. This standard defines one to four lanes of backplane links, one RX and one TX
differential pair per lane, at link bandwidth ranging from 100Mbit to 10Gbit per second (from
100BASE-KX to 10GBASE-KX4). The 1000BASE-KX variant uses 1.25 GBd electrical (not
optical) signaling speed.
1000BASE-SX
1000BASE-SX is a fiber optic Gigabit Ethernet standard for operation over multi-mode fiber
using a 770 to 860 nanometer, near infrared (NIR) light wavelength.
The standard specifies a distance capability between 220 metres (62.5/125 m fiber with
low modal bandwidth) and 550 metres (50/125 m fiber with high modal bandwidth). In

Since rugged products are very confidential with respective to their technology used,
they cannot be outsourced to any individual for their sole use of developping a private
products. It should be very confidential.
Inorder to maintain such privacy to their products, they have certain limitations for
better growth of their products. And the limitations are as follows:
Technology used should be protected.
Publicising of their products shouldnot be allowed.
Separate manufacturing unit.
Mechanical designs were made under special supervisor.
Asembling of the product with well trained technology associates.
Testing should be done in the presence of government agents.

Thus we have completed our project by applying theoretical knowledge on the above
mentioned project. And also we have gained knowledge about various components which
suits the Industry standards. Mechanical designs were being designed with the help of our
company faculty which leads to the successful completion of project. These kind of products
were mostly used in military, navy and air force applications. Successfully completed the
