EID to unveil new vehicle communication system at DSEI
The Portuguese company’s naval communications system is in service across more than a dozen countries. It has turned to its home nation for support in developing a new vehicle based C2 system.
Abaco Systems has received a three-year, multimillion-dollar contract from an unnamed customer to provide 60 units of its VP430 EW analysis system (pictured).
The contract was won after a competitive evaluation.
The RF system-on-chip (RFSoC) VP430 is a direct RF processing system that will be used in an upgrade of a counter-fire target acquisition radar.
VP430 is the first COTS solution with 3U VPX form factor to feature the Xilinx ZU27DR RFSoC technology. Featuring eight ADC and DAC synchronised channels, it can synchronise multiple boards for large system applications.
‘The VP430 reduces RF signal chain complexity, [and] maximises input/output channel density, utilising a flexible and secure processing powerhouse and offloading data more efficiently,’ Abaco stated on 4 February
