Overview
The military community is transforming the battlefield of the 21st century. From satellite to soldier, reducing system size, weight, and power (SWaP) are critical. Whether in manned (ships, aircraft, and vehicles) or unmanned (radar, missiles, sensors, air, and ground vehicles) equipment, reducing SWaP constraints is paramount to building deployable platforms and to adding functionality and increasing performance in existing chassis.
During this net seminar, you'll learn how to:
- Reduce size, weight, and power in SWaP-constrained applications to take new platforms to the battlefield
- Make digital logic implementation trade-offs to address SWaP
- Increase platform mission life and add functionality while reducing SWaP metrics
- Increase processing while staying within existing power envelopes
- Minimize static power for systems largely in standby mode, such as secure communications software defined radios
- Reduce power in radar systems’ front end to increase performance to radiating elements
Who Should View
- Engineers designing SWaP-sensitive applications, such as:
- SDR secure communications
- Radar and electronic warfare platforms
