happened before Carlson's watch, but the lesson stuck. U.S. intelligence officials say he is equally blunt with contractors he now manages. Where they used to be allowed to lag on delivering new technology, Carlson threatened to cancel contracts and walk away, said one U.S. intelligence official, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss intelligence matters. When Carlson first delivered some of his missives, "jaws dropped," the official said. And behavior changed. Even a couple of years ago, more than 30 percent of all NRO contracts were performing poorly, Carlson said, but now all are "on contract and on price." Carlson is already war-gaming what he'll cut if Congress slashes that works on next-generation satellite equipment and the futuristic equipment the satellites carry. "We were going to protect our people, the core people of our mission," Carlson said. And the agency's learned to make do, he said. "We've got satellites up there that are remarkably old, over a decade old, that were only supposed to live for three or four years," that were designed to collect Soviet communications during the Cold War, Carlson said. "Now they are collecting phone calls or push-to-talk radio signals out of the war zone." Those signals are used to "geo-locate" the sources of threats. One key NRO program, called Red Dot, is focused on finding improvised bombs, his annual budget, saying he'll sacrifice operations and maintenance to keep the same number of staff on board, and protect the forward-looking science and technology research primed to attack U.S. troops in the war zone. www.nro.gov Online: http://www.bradenton.com/2011/09/16/3500297/ultrasecret-satellite-spy-shop.html - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 関連ニュース- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 米国宇宙スパイ庁は秘密の衛星を土曜に公開予定 US Space Spy Agency to Unveil Hush-Hush Satellites on Saturday SPACE.com — 12:03 pm ET (1603 GMT) NRO 長官は技術、調達予算を守る http://www.space.com/12970-secret-spy-satellites-national-reconnaissance-office-smithsonian.html NRO Chief Protects Tech, Procurement Budgets Aviation Week — 11:50 am ET (1550 GMT) http://www.aviationweek.com/aw/generic/story_channel.jsp?channel=space&id=news/asd/2011/09/16/01.xml&headline=NRO%20Chief%20Protects%20Tech,%20Procurement%20Budgets スパイ衛星は、予定期限通り、予算通り、NRO は古い衛星 2 機を公開 Spy Satellites Are On Time, On Budget; NRO Uncloaks Two Old Birds AOL — 8:47 pm ET (0047 GMT) http://defense.aol.com/2011/09/15/spy-satellites-on-time-on-budget-nro-lifts-cloak-from-two-old/ 米スパイ衛星の長官は、計画は現在、予定通り、予算通り U.S. Spy Satellite Chief Says Programs Now on Schedule, Cost Bloomberg News — 7:43 pm ET (2343 GMT) http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-09-15/u-s-spy-satellite-chief-says-programs-now-on-schedule-cost-1-.html?cmpid=yhoo - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Tuesday, September 20th, 2011 4:47 pm www.dodbuzz.com/ 14
William Shelton, 空軍大将 : GPS と`LightSquared は共存できない AF gen: GPS, LightSquared ‘can’t coexist’ diagram and said that even under LightSquared’s alternate proposal for its network, which would move its signal farther away from GPS, it would still squelch the harmonic frequencies that precise receivers use. As for the “filters” LightSquared Shelton The boss of Air Force Space Command, Gen. William Shelton, does not want to get any more mixed up in the political imbroglio between the FCC, Republicans, Democrats and the broadband startup LightSquared. His job, he told reporters Tuesday, is to protect the Global Positioning System, and to that end, he reaffirmed at the Air Force Association’s trade show that GPS and LightSquared’s proposed network “cannot coexist.” Simple as that. He said as much during a question and answer session after a speech to the convention and then again to reporters in a press briefing afterwards. In fact, Shelton even picked up a pen and drew a diagram to illustrate how LightSquared’s network effectively jams the signal that military GPS receivers need to get their precise timing and location data. Shelton pointed to his wants to develop to protect GPS receivers, Shelton repeated that it could cost billions of dollars and take a decade to install them on all of the military’s GPS units — if they work. That’s not gonna happen. The only answer, he concluded, is “spectrum reassignment” — the FCC would have to move LightSquared up or down the spectrum. The problem there, of course, is that other users are already occupying those parts of the band, but that’s the FCC’s problem, not the military’s. So did the White House pressure him to change the testimony he planned to give about this to the House Armed Services Committee? “Any time, in the past and in the future, that I’m called to testify I’ll do my best to present the facts as I know them,” Shelton said. “The real issue here, certainly, from my perspective, is protecting the GPS service.” http://www.dodbuzz.com/2011/09/20/af-gen-gps-lightsquared-cant-coexist/ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Fri, 16 September, 2011 www.spacenews.com/satellite_telecom/ Warren Ferster LightSquared 社の会長兼 CEO の Sanjiv Ahuja は、政治的に優遇されているとの申立てをはねつける LightSquared Chief Dismisses Allegations of Political Favoritism PARIS — LightSquared Chairman and Chief Executive Sanjiv Ahuja dismissed as “ludicrous” allegations that the company, which plans to deploy a satellite-terrestrial mobile broadband network serving North America, received favorable treatment from U.S. telecommunications regulators because of its political connections. something so strongly … unless it’s from above or there’s a relationship that’s not being disclosed,” Rep. Austin Scott (R-Ga.) said. “The fact that we’re here is ridiculous.” Scott asked FCC engineering chief Julius Knapp if such a relationship existed, but Knapp did not acknowledge any political ties to LightSquared. The witnesses at the hearing included Gen. William Shelton, commander of U.S. Air Force Space Command, and several other U.S. government officials. In a statement issued Sept. 15 after the hearing, Ahuja noted that LightSquared was not invited to testify. “It’s difficult to charge that LightSquared Ahuja Credit: Photo courtesy of Telenor The allegations surfaced during a Sept. 15 House Armed Services Committee hearing in which Republican lawmakers suggested LightSquared’s political ties led the U.S. Federal Communications System (FCC) to approve the company’s system despite the interference threat it poses to GPS satellite navigation signals. “ I have never seen an agency advocate has undue political influence when it was denied the opportunity to testify at today’s hearing of the House Armed Service Committee’s Strategic Forces Subcommittee — or even be allowed a one-on-one meeting with the chairman of that committee prior to the hearing, as the GPS industry was given,” Ahuja said. LightSquared and its plans to deploy a so-called hybrid broadband network featuring satellites and some 40,000 ground-based repeaters came under fire in June after extensive testing by a technical working group showed that the system 15
