Geon Technologies proposes an open and extensible SDR architecture that can function autonomously either as a single radio or network of distributed radios to provide the expeditionary warfighter with a multi-function capability A system capable of EMS cyberspace operations must continually sense, detect, analyze and classify all signals in the target spectrum to gain a complete profile of what signals are present along with their purpose, origin and intent (e.g., red force, blue force, white force/NGO, civilian, coalition, etc). The scope of such a system expands the focus of a traditional cognitive radio to provide wide area RF situational awareness, generate a RF cyberspace common operating picture, enable RF cyber fires, perform real-time cyber battle damage assessment, observe effectiveness of Blue Force communications in Red Force jamming, support white force tracking, and many more.
Benefit: Will produce a capability that can automate aspects of OCO, ISR, EW and SGINT techniques and tradecraft. The system developed will have benefit to any Program of Record with the requirement to converge multiple mission functionality onto one platform.
