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.

Rugged VME and CompactPCI hardware platform controls multiple unmanned aircraft

During March 2007 a series of QinetiQ research activities culminated with a Royal Air Force (RAF) pilot successfully controlling multiple unmanned aircraft from the cockpit of a Tornado military jet. For this series of flight trials, QinetiQ’s sophisticated control software was hosted on a dedicated Kontron platform comprising a mix of standard, off-the-shelf boards based on 3U CompactPCI® and VME embedded computing form factors as well as Kontron industrial servers.

Implementing ATCA Serving Gateways for LTE Networks

One key challenge of LTE is how core network components will keep up with massive increases in access link throughput (e.g., seven times HSPA data rates). How evolved core network equipment manufacturers rise to this challenge will be critical for determining subscriber satisfaction with their LTE service experiences. To focus on the challenge, this article discusses the “best practices” approach for building an ATCA Serving Gateway node, the very backbone of the LTE network user plane.
