Marc Couture discusses how better coverage and real-time data analysis can be achieved with next-generation receiver technology.

Aaron Frank and Ivan Straznicky look at VITA 47 for ruggedization and reliability. The VITA Standards Organization’s ANSI/VITA 47 targets the Environments, Design and Construction, Safety, and Quality for Plug-In Units.

To build equipment that can handle the challenges of rugged environments, engineers need to make the right design decisions for their components, chassis, and software. Here's how to get the job done.

We look at the need for effective SIGINT/ELINT [signals intelligence/electronic signals intelligence]coverage of the electro-magnetic spectrum.

Aaron Frank discusses the benefits of Intel's new Broadwell processor to embedded defense applications.

Denis Smetana discusses the design approaches for implementing beamforming processing tasks using GPU, DSP and FPGA processors.
