Curtiss-Wright ground station electronics inherits its legacy from our sensor management products. Both ground station electronics and our sensor management family share the same technology building blocks and operate together to provide communication between unmanned aerial vehicles and ground stations.

The Sensor Management Computer (SMC) is part of a network-centric product family. The SMC provides the data interface between ground satellite and Mission Control Element (MCE) computer infrastructure. The SMC's modular design consists of a single/dual VPX-based Power Architecture processing, high speed interface suite (Fibre Channel, Gb Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, SATA, Serial RapidIO) and support for legacy interfaces such as parallel ECL interface, RS-422 and RS-232. The rugged GSMU-2 system is designed to support internal SATA storage media in a 6U VPX form factor for future applications.
