Supporting the full Defence Information Warfare capability lifecycle with high-assurance EMS solutions

Capability

Electromagnetic Warfare

Consunet is the prime contractor delivering Australia's next-generation Electromagnetic Battle Management (EMBM) solution, providing Australia's Defence Force with the knowledge and tools necessary to make appropriate decisions about Electromagnetic Spectrum (EMS) use and prioritisation.

Tactical advantage starts with
spectrum control

The Electromagnetic Spectrum (EMS) is a critical resource for military operations, but it has also given rise to new challenges. It is becoming increasingly difficult for our forces to deny and degrade the adversary’s ability to use the EMS, whilst ensuring friendly forces have unimpeded access. Rapidly advancing technologies accelerate complex spectrum challenges such as emitter conflicts and anomalies, severely limiting effective manoeuvre within the Electromagnetic Operating Environment (EMOE).

Consunet specialises in high-assurance Electronic Warfare (EW) and Information Warfare (IW) solutions, utilising sensor/effector systems, signal detection and exploitation capabilities, enterprise data fusion, information battlespace management and complex, multi-system integration. We build, deploy and support dynamic EW solutions that enable more efficient use of the spectrum.

Capability Statement

EW capabilities provide

Situational Awareness

Near-real-time signal data and geospatial technologies enable visualisation and a comprehensive situational understanding of the EMOE.

Survivability

EW capabilities model, plan and predict spectrum utilisation and dynamically adapt to the changing EMS environment, enabling resilience and ensuring network survivability.

Signals of Interest

Using both traditional and contemporary Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques, signals are extracted and exploited to provide information and insights relating to emitters.

EMS Support

High-assurance EMS monitoring, ongoing support and innovative thinking are used to deliver valuable solutions to complex EMS challenges.

"As the warfighter needs to rapidly change and evolve, modern IW supporting systems also need to evolve to continuously to drive spectrum operation efficiencies. Agile delivery and DevSecOps processes ensure the warfighter can maintain a capability edge."

Agile Delivery

We use Agile delivery methodologies to ensure Defence software capabilities can evolve and adapt at the speed of relevance—supporting the vision and intent of Australia’s Defence Electromagnetic Spectrum Strategy (DEMSS).

We work in close partnership with the Commonwealth and warfighters, enabling capability development as a continuous, iterative process. This allows us to evolve requirements, re-prioritise tasks, and create new solutions throughout the capability lifecycle.

Our Agile engineering approach helps us manage the risks often associated with traditional requirements-gathering methods. It also allows us to keep pace with rapid technological change—particularly in complex projects where the best technical solutions aren’t always known from the start.

Support

Consunet's Support Organisation leverages Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) disciplines for logistics planning and management throughout all phases of the capability lifecycle.

ILS is an integral part of Consunet's domain expertise in sustainment and delivery of In-Service Defence capability. In-Service Support functions within the Support System Constituent Capabilities framework, tailoring essential and interrelated support elements that encompass people, products and processes.

Consunet's Support Organisation focuses on achieving high-value operational outcomes to the warfighter through value-for-money support capabilities that are both cost-effective and fit for purpose.

Research

Our doctoral-level research team applies Artiﬁcial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) to solve emerging EMS challenges. Consunet's engineering capabilities leverage international standards, Agile methodology best practice, industry leading tools and state-of-the-art, secure facilities to create a high-assurance, sovereign EW Capability Factory.
