Cities have become the new battleground and Hybrid or Urban Warfare the greatest threat being waged by ISIS to Boko Haram to Hamas to Ukraine rebels. Boko Haram is carrying out its urban terror campaign against the Nigerian Army and its allies. In the Paris attacks, two teams of lightly armed …
Read More »Conventional modem designs can be termed as ‘fixed-function’ modems ‘ because almost all modem functionality in these modems are implemented in silicon resulting in large die sizes and limited flexibility. As the number and complexity of air interfaces increase, so does the challenge involved in planning, designing, manufacturing, testing and …

Software-Defined Networking (SDN) is a network architecture approach that enables the network to be intelligently and centrally controlled, or ‘programmed,’ using software applications. This helps operators manage the entire network consistently and holistically, regardless of the underlying network technology. Software-defined networking (SDN) is the decoupling of the network control logic from the …

Wireless electronic systems have been relying on dish antennas to send and receive signals. These systems have been widely used where directivity is important and many of those systems work well at a relatively low cost after years of optimization. These dish antennas having a mechanical arm to rotate the …

Satellite communications represent a cost effective and reliable means of transporting voice, video and data to and from remote locations. The satellite industry is one of those industries where network management plays a key role. Therefore, the requirements for network management solutions for the satellite market are usually very stringent. For …
Read More »Historically, the evolution of the modem technology has been exclusively focused on purpose-built solutions with a Printed Circuit Board (PCB), CPU, FPGAs, discrete components, and/or an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC); and combined with implementation code targeted for the custom hardware environment to deliver a limited set of capabilities and …
