SX-1000
Electronic Warfare, Signals Intelligence and Cyber System
The SX-1000 Electronic Warfare (EW) system uses a Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA) solution to provide electronic support measures for spectrum situational awareness, surveillance, and collection; integrated direction-finding and data fusion for the geolocation of threat systems; and active and reactive electronic countermeasures that deny, degrade, disrupt, and deceive the adversary. Designed as a Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) system, the SX-1000 is built on a suite of open architecture industry standards including the Sensor Open Systems Architecture (SOSA)™, C5ISR/EW Modular Open Suite of Standards (CMOSS), MORA, MOSA, and OpenVPX™. The SX-1000 provides for mobile, fixed site, maritime, and airborne applications and payload customization.
The SX-1000 features the highly optimized and automated Pacific Defense EW & SIGINT (PD-EWS) applications processing system, multiple open RF processing frameworks, and third-party application packages. The wideband processing enables operators to rapidly survey the electromagnetic environment from 10MHz to 18 GHz and beyond. Spectrum survey tools provide rapid assessment of the environment and quickly identify signals of interest, while Electronic Counter Measure (ECM) capabilities enable control of multiple waveform generators to provide electronic attack techniques.
Scaling to numerous software-defined radio (SDR) cards and channels, the SX-1000 incorporates streaming services to provide radio frequency (RF) data to third-party tools, as well as the ability to instantly capture and store I/Q files for off-line analysis.
