NuWaves Engineering has developed a high-efficiency, high-linearity power amplifier and low-spurious down-converter as the result of a Phase II Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) award by the US Army.
The Advanced Radio Frequency (RF) Environment Simulator for Mode 5 and Identification Friend or Foe (IFF) (ADROIT) program has resulted in IFF simulator/stimulator hardware to enhance the Army’s capabilities with regards to combined live, virtual and constructive (LVC) simulations. The hardware includes an enhanced VRG-1000SD from strategic partner ViaSat, which includes software upgrades to increase the number of simultaneous IFF interrogators and transponders in a given simulation (performed by ViaSat), and incorporates a linear RF power amplifier within the VRG-1000 to increase the capabilities to the maximum permissible levels for test equipment.
