Israel sets up new department to boost development of AI and autonomy
Israel will continue to develop autonomy for its weapons and platforms as it brings together defence personnel, academia and industry.
Northrop demos GPS SDR navigation solution
Northrop Grumman, in partnership with the US Air Force Research Laboratory Sensors Directorate, demonstrated a software defined radio (SDR)-based, M-code enabled GPS receiver on production-capable hardware during a recent flight test, the company announced on 24 May.
In real-time, the SDR acquired and tracked the modernised GPS military signal, known as M-code, during a live-sky demonstration.
Northrop Grumman has attained a security certification milestone by attaining Certification Requirements Review approval for the SDR-based GPS receiver from the GPS Directorate. This milestone constitutes a critical step on the way to fielding an M-code enabled GPS receiver that can be operated in an unclassified environment.
Using a system-on-a-chip SDR approach, in lieu of the traditional fixed application specific integrated circuit design, enabled the platform to make rapid real-time field changes, an important capability in an evolving threat environment.
