Embedded Computing Design

Software Defined Radio (SDR) is a tool for RF spectrum monitoring, control, and testing.  It is used in drone detection and deterrence, wireless testing, Signals Intelligence (SIGINT), electronic warfare, and wireless communication, among other applications. Rugged or extreme environments can present a challenge to SDR, however, because of the sensitivity of the hardware to moisture, temperature, and shock or vibration.

The theme of the just-concluded 2019 Embedded Tech Trends (ETT) media event was The Future is Now.

A newly defined hardware-software interface specified by PICMG will allow effective ?plug and play? deployment of distributed sensor networks.

Attendees from the industrial, IoT, transportation, and defense markets came to our booth to check out technologies and specifications from our 23 members.

The group intends to leverage it?s members existing deployed base in industrial automation systems that currently utilize technologies such as COM Express and CompactPCI Serial.

MicroTCA has some powerful and compelling features, especially in the realm of system management. The more advanced the features are, the most complex...
