SDR4320VP
Ultra-wideband SDR Transceiver
The SDR4320VP is a high-performance, quad-channel, ultra-wideband software defined radio (SDR) transceiver aligned with the SOSA™ and CMOSS technical standards that operates up to 18 GHz input frequency and 1 GHz instantaneous analog bandwidth. This 3U OpenVPX plug-in card comes with significant onboard FPGA resources and data rates up to 100 Gbps for high performance real-time processing. Optimized for SWaP-constrained payloads, the SDR4320VP seamlessly integrates into existing EW / SIGINT / Radar / Cyber mission systems, autonomous platforms, and distributed sensor network applications for use on Air, Land and Sea platforms.
Centered around a leading-edge high-performance Radio Frequency System-on-Chip (RFSoC) from AMD Zynq™ UltraScale+™ family of devices, the SDR4320VP facilitates a software defined signal chain enabling rapid deployment of new waveforms, jamming techniques, radar modes, and adaptive direction-finding algorithms - without hardware changes. In its default configuration, the SDR4320VP is compliant to the ANSI VITA 48.2 mechanical standard for VPX REDI conduction cooling and ECC3 environmental class per VITA 47 standard.
