Newer on-vehicle integrated networks will be composed of heterogeneous networks in the form of software and equipment from multiple commercial vendors.

Featured products will include ultra-small form factor mission computers and network switches, rugged high capacity storage solutions - such as the Data Transport System, and size, weight, and power (SWaP)-optimized embedded avionics systems - such as the ultra-lightweight Fortress Crash Protected Recorder.

The demo features PacStar’s IQ-Core Software network management software running on Curtiss-Wright rugged mission computers.

Curtiss-Wright, in collaboration with PacStar, will present a paper on “Managing Next Generation Open Standard Vehicle Electronics Architectures”.

We look at RF telescopes using wideband ADCs and FPGAs for data processing to determine when and how to upgrade your system for RF telescopes.

Curtiss-Wright’s Defense Solutions division enhanced the Parvus DuraCOR 312, the industry’s most powerful and flexible ultra-small form factor (USFF) mission computer, with the NVIDIA Jetson TX2i module.

SWaP-optimized COTS-based Digital Beachhead VICTORY-compliant network switch adds Complementary Assured Position, Navigation and Timing (A-PNT) services to ease modernization of ground vehicles.

The challenge of fitting all the mission system electronics on-board SWaP-constrained military vehicles, while meeting reliability and schedule constraints.
