Software defined radio "SDR" technology has been around for decades. Some of the benefits have been limited to the COMINT receiver vendors. In this presentation we focus more on the benefits for the end-user. We go through some general advantages of SDR technology and more specific benefits it brings to strategic COMINT monitoring systems. We will look at SDR enabled COMINT receiver functionality and how to combine it with a modular HW archite...

Theme: Evaluating Current EW Innovation in Context of Real World Conflicts The war in Ukraine has identified the relevance of Collaborative EW in support of rapid unfolding operations, with rapid adaptation and innovation contributing to the fight. What does this conflict teach us about what to do and what not to do in the spectrum? Who else will learn these lessons and to what result? Objective: As EW warfighting requirements continue to evol...

Although the term Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) is often used interchangeably with both Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and “drone,” a UAS is a “system” of three parts, with UAV or “drone” referring to the aircraft itself. In addition to the aircraft, the UAS includes the control station and the communication link between the control station and the aircraft. It is this communications link that is often the p...

The Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) is continuing its extensive modernization program, to prepare to fight and win "informationized local wars." Such wars are a hallmark of the "Information Age," where information is now not only the currency of international power, but the key to successful prosecution of wars. To this end, the PLA is intent upon achieving "information dominance," which includes electronic warfare, network warfare, and...

As Department of Defence undertakings go, the Joint All-Domain Command and Control (JADC2) system is one of the most ambitious. Put simply, the initiative has two key ambitions: Firstly, It will smash stovepipe walls separating the US' armed services' C2 systems. Secondly, it will greatly accelerate the pace at which information can be shared between services across the battlespace. In short, the JADC2 represents an ambitious effort to embrace...

Webinar attendees will gain insights into performance required of an analog signal generator used in the three measurement applications and how to choose a signal generator with right signal purity for their needs. Webinar will show how using a signal generator with less than desired signal purity (phase noise and spurious) results in inaccurate measurement of ENOB or improper characterization of up/down converter performance. IT will also sho...

Missiles provide the essential accuracy and standoff range capabilities that are required in modern warfare. Technologies for missiles are rapidly emerging, resulting in the frequent introduction of new missile systems. The capability to meet the requirements for missile survivability is especially important for long range missiles. This presentation provides an overview of the broad range of alternatives in satisfying missile requirements for...

Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery warned that losing the war in the air would cost the war itself. Over the best part of a century, airpower has defined conflict. The failure to win and sustain air superiority and supremacy makes victory at best difficult, and at worst impossible. The need to secure Electromagnetic Superiority and Supremacy (E2S) will have a similar effect on the wars of tomorrow. Forces failing to win and hold E2S while denyin...

Whether it is from a main stage keynoter, or a breakout session panelist, plan to walk away equipped with the latest developments in technology and governance in pursuit of EMS capability superiority. Gain exposure to a show floor brimming with cutting edge technologies and service...

The US military establishment is playing catchup inside the EW sector, with large defense contractors and military test centers scrambling to test and field the best sensor systems to fight against near-peer competitors. While US defense companies develop products against a hypothetical contested spectrum (Baltics, South China Sea), companies in Europe deploy solutions that must work immediately in contested civil/military spectrums, everyday....
