General SDR benefits

SDR support and enhances the flexibility in NBD(NCW, NEC, NNEC, NCO, NBF, Nxx, …)

Standardized SDR enables:Flexibility (space – time – cost)

Adaptable, Upgrade, Parallel, Concurrent, Radio Access

Gateway and Network capabilities

One HW for many purpose (lower weight, cost)

Portability between building blocksSeparate, vendor independent, reuse or upgrade of HW and SW block

Interoperability enabled communication


SDR for DefenceSome Facts

The military tactical radio market strive to offer multipurpose radio systems, based upon SCA compatible SDR

Europe’s defence LSI and radio manufacturers produce SDR HWSDR SW business and certification model is not defined

SDR will be and are used in commercial productsbut not according to SCA

FMV/SwAF has addressed that Sweden will only support National WF development, (i.e. not HW)

SDR WF development (including information assurance) is identified as a Swedish strategically niche
