Contribution: Industrial Research Assistance Program – Contributions to Firms

D-TA Systems

$500,000.00

Compact Multi-Function ELINT With Advanced Pulse processing, Data Collection & Data Management

FY 2018-19 · 2018-12-03

Summary
It leverages D-TA’s capability in ultra-wideband RF spectrum acquisition and real-time record/playback. It will also enhance the RF bandwidth capability and introduce a recorder centric pulse processing concept using multi-threaded software. The signal analysis is done using software processing threads while recording is ongoing. The advantage is that all data samples can be examined, raising the probability of intercept and deeper analysis as data is always available, for better estimation of radar signal parameters. The innovation also addresses the ‘big data’ problem associated with large ELINT data collection by introducing a query-based search. The end product will deliver a value proposition by cutting time, cost and deployment risk.

Description (French)
L'acquisition du spectre RF haute capacité et les capacités d'enregistrement / lecture en temps réel du D-TA. Il améliorera également la capacité de bande passante RF et introduira un concept de traitement d’impulsions centré utilisant un logiciel à plusieurs fils. L'analyse du signal est effectuée à l'aide de fils de traitement logiciel pendant que l'enregistrement est en cours. L'avantage est que tous les échantillons de données peuvent être examinés, ce qui augmente la probabilité d'interception et améliore la précision des paramètres du signal radar. L'innovation aborde également le problème des données volumineuses « big data » avec la collecte de données ELINT en introduisant une recherche basée sur une requête. Le produit final offrira une proposition de valeur en réduisant les risques liés aux délais, aux coûts et au déploiement.
