Australia looks towards space with force restructure, investment and training
Australia is looking to improve its presence in space with a focus on communications and creating a dedicated segment of its defence forces committed to the domain.
EB, Elektrobit Corporation, a developer of leading edge embedded technology solutions for automotive and wireless industries, today announced the following products:
The EB Tactical Wireless IP Network is a stand-alone military/authority wireless broadband network that can be deployed in any location. It enables the formation of an independent IP network and is compatible with existing infrastructure, both wire-line and wireless. Being based on software defined radio makes the product versatile, upgradeable and easy to adapt. It enables a mesh network solution with high data rate and automatic network configuration required by battle groups on the move. The product has an excellent performance and form factor as both network node and router functionality are integrated into a single product. The product was developed to be compatible with the SCA and ESSOR software architectures.
The EB Wideband COMINT Sensor is a complete, high performance wideband sensor. It enables system integrators to build distributed future-proof communications intelligence (COMINT) systems. The product enables a distributed sensor network and is easy to integrate to existing COMINT systems.
The EB Counter RCIED Platform enables original equipment manufacturers and defense system integrators to offer defense authorities intelligent jamming solutions for the prevention of radio controlled IED threats in an ever changing environment. The platform enables threat logging and offline analyses of the performed jamming operation to optimize the performance of the device. The modular, software defined radio based platform is designed for smooth vehicle integration, and it is software upgradeable making it easy to integrate to future multifunctional electronic warfare systems, command and control systems and tactical communications platforms.
"These products bring needed depth into our portfolio and make us a true player in the defense industry providing state of the art radio technology products," says vice president, Defence & Security, Jari Sankala at EB. "The products we are launching today are the results of over 15 years of experience in research and development of defense and security technologies."
