Deploying Ruggedized Systems in Unmanned Military Vehicles for Advanced Air-Sea-Land Applications
An overview of the challenges, constraints & opportunities in the military’s most demanding environments – Part 1 describes the escalating trend toward the use of advanced unmanned vehicle platforms as key tactical elements within overall military reconnaissance and war-fighting strategies. Part 2 provides a more detailed exploration of the specific implementation methodologies and issues that must be addressed in the creation of high-performance, ruggedized systems to meet the needs of these ultra-demanding deployment environments.
When High Performance Really Matters in Mil-Aero: Why ATCA is the Ideal Solution
“In the Information Age, power is increasingly derived from information sharing, information access, and speed, all of which are facilitated by networked forces. Network-Centric Warfare (NCW) involves a new way of thinking about how we accomplish our missions and how we organize and interrelate within and among all echelons and at all levels of warfare—strategic, operational, and tactical,” said A. K. Cebrowski, Director, Office of Force Transformation, Office of the Secretary of Defense.

Software Defined Radio Handbook
SDR (Software Defined Radio) has revolutionized electronic systems for a variety of applications including communications, data acquisition and signal processing. This handbook shows how DDCs (Digital Downconverters) and DUCs (Digital Upconverters), the fundamental building blocks of SDR, can replace conventional analog receiver designs, offering significant benefits in performance, density and cost.
Demystifying DO-254
Interest in DO-254 first occurred in Europe and has since spread to the US commercial aircraft industry. If you are being asked about your company’s DO-254 direction and compliance, but have been overwhelmed with information on the subject, then this article is for you.
Advances in Radar Processing
With radar systems, as with many military applications, it is difficult to determine whether greater processing needs are driving development of more powerful hardware and software – or whether radar systems designers have just been quick to adopt more capable hardware and easier-to-use software. Whatever the case, today’s sophisticated radar processing is reliant on three key elements. Click on the white paper link to learn about these three key elements in today’s radar processing systems.
Open Specifications For Highly Available Mission-Critical Systems
When missions are at stake and live are on the line, operational availability of war-fighter systems is an absolute requirement. While the need to ensure availability of such systems has not changed, standards-based platforms that ensure service continuity, drive down costs and reduce schedule risks. Open specifications playing a key role in this transition are AdvancedTCA (ATCA) and those from the Service Availability Forum (SA Forum). In this session you will learn key concepts including and introduction to ATCA and SA Forum specifications, an overview of services key to ensuring continuous availability of your mission-critical application, and a look inside a real-world implementation.
