RF FPGA for 0.4 to 18 GHz DoD Multi-function Systems

Abstract

Northrop Grumman Electronic Systems (NGES) is developing a dynamically reconfigurable, wide band programmable RF FPGA transceiver which, if successful, will provide reduced life cycle cost, reduced re-design cost, and service for multiple DoD platforms, while maintaining near-optimal performance for each application. This RF FPGA transceiver has the flexibility to implement communications, radar, EW, EA, and other functions covering the 0.4 to 18 GHz band.
