Spectrum Demonstrates Rugged SATCOM Embedded Radio Module
]
The SDR-4803 SATCOM Embedded Radio Module,
the first variant of the SDR-4800 family that features integrated RF and System-on-Chip (SoC) technologies, was recently demonstrated at the CANSEC tradeshow in Ottawa, ON. The SDR-4803 is designed for use in defense and civil satellite communications (SATCOM) systems. The demonstrator module integrates a high-performance RF front-end with digital modem processing into a single card making it ideal for size, weight, and power constrained applications such as SATCOM-on-the-Move (SOTM) terminals.
The demonstration featured two rugged, conduction-cooled SDR-4803 Demonstrator modules each containing an embedded single channel RF stage and Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) SoC processor to transmit and receive a video and audio data stream at up to T1 speeds (1.5 Mbps) using an OFDM-based waveform.

Spectrum Waveform Design Studio Selected by the European Commission Joint Research Centre for Interoperable Security Solutions Within the WINTSEC Project
]
Spectrum announced that the European Commission Joint Research Centre (JRC) Sensors Radar Technologies and Cyber Security Unit (SERAC) will use Spectrum's flexComm™ Waveform Design StudioŽ for the research and development of software defined radio capability in the Wireless Interoperability for Security (WINTSEC) project. WINTSEC explores a mixture of complementary solutions to overcome the barriers for wireless interoperability across different security agencies, enabling first responders with incompatible legacy radios to communicate in a crisis situation.
The JRC will be using the Waveform Design Studio to achieve goals in the following areas:
- To support a possible improvement of European Union (EU) communications interoperability in the area of security and first responders
- To enhance understanding of emerging technologies, mesh networks and wideband communications
- To better assess future threats to critical network infrastructures
For more information on the Waveform Design Studio, read the
press release or
