Government customers drive some of Bell Labs’ most sophisticated
communications research. The unique requirements of our
government-related work result in innovations that reach new levels of
reliability and security, as well as inspire new ways of thinking about
everything from the laws of physics to component design and intelligent
networking. Focus areas include:
-
Laser communications, leveraging Bell Labs
significant expertise in optical technology, MEMS (micro-electro mechanical
systems) and nanotechnology, Bell Labs is developing laser communications
systems that will help transform military communications.
-
Nanotechnology, the ability to precisely
control materials and structures about a thousand times thinner than a human
hair is opening new possibilities for communication devices and engineering
techniques, many of which are critical in meeting the unique needs of
government customers. When size, weight and power consumption are the key
factors for success, it’s often vitally important that nanotechnology play a
role in the solution.

Bell Labs innovations enable LGS to deliver leading products, solutions and
services that meet the government's mission-critical needs.

|
In the transformation to become a network-centric military enterprise, the
role of research and experimentation is essential.
|
|
 |
|
Bell Labs innovations have played a pivotal role in inventing – or
perfecting – many key communications technologies in use in the commercial and
public sector today.

|  |
|
Our research team has in-depth knowledge and experience with commercial
solutions, since much of the innovation in the military domain can be derived
from solutions from the commercial sector.
