Distributed aUtonomous Spectrum managemenT (DUST), developed by Consunet, is a modern software solution to efficiently and effectively manage the EMS.
Critical to military communications, spectrum management enables effective EMS spectrum maneuverability and Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) in complex, congested and contested electromagnetic operating environments.
DUST utilises contemporary AI and ML techniques to deliver dynamic spectrum allocation, assured spectrum access and network survivability. By coordinating spectrum access across multiple users and devices including radar, sensors, communication systems and satellites, DUST provides the warfighter with a contemporary solution for multi-domain command and control.
DUST is an AI-powered solution that delivers dynamic, secure, and predictive spectrum management. From real-time availability and trusted spectrum trading to city-scale simulations and anomaly detection, DUST ensures resilient, optimised access to spectrum—anywhere, anytime. Built for adaptability. Powered by intelligence.
DUST’s autonomous systems enable dynamic spectrum allocation, rapidly adapting to provide spectrum availability based on time, space and the needs of the customer.
DUST’s modern trusted trading technologies are used to reassign spectrum from users who have surplus to those with spectrum deficiencies. Spectrum trading is a critical process that optimises wireless communication, in addition to identifying and nullifying non-cooperative actors.
DUST includes a simulation used to validate the capabilities of the system in new environments at city level scales. Simulations support the generation of training data for ML models which enables testing of specific environments before deployment.
DUST utilises advanced ML models to react and predict spectrum patterns and opportunities that adapt to ever-changing situations.
DUST monitors the spectrum for anomalous behaviour and identifies unusual activity in near real-time. Using anomaly detection capabilities, DUST can plan to avoid unexpected situations.
