heal.abstract	Wireless technology is frequently used in military networks for establishing communication in areas characterized by non-uniform terrain morphology (i.e., mountains, islands, etc.) where mobile military units have to be moved and for creating also a security back-up network easily to be used for emergency situations (i.e., an enemy's sabotage). Towards the exploitation of the wireless technology, the paper presents a methodology for specifying the wireless links, which constitute the backbone of a wireless military network. Although the presented methodology concerns the design of a military-purposed wireless network, it can be easily generalized in order to be applied in other types of wireless networks (e.g. commercial, corporative, pilot networks, etc.). An application of the proposed methodology is also discussed in the paper.	en
