The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has awarded BAE Systems a $14-million contract to support signal processing and computation development for the US Department of Defense. The Massive Cross Correlation (MAX) program seeks a next-generation signal processing architecture that can deploy efficiently at high dynamic range and without decreasing bandwidth. Supporting Mission-Critical TechnologiesUnder the agreement, BAE will deliver a more power-efficient analog correlator with range and bandwidth according to standards set by DARPA. As opposed to the traditional correlators, BAE will provide DARPA with an analog correlator the size of a hockey puck. “This disruptive analog correlator technology can result in enhanced decision making, allow mission-critical technology to be deployed on smaller platforms, and create a new category of systems.”
