Description
SI2 Technologies, Inc. (SI2) proposes building and testing a software configurable, wideband, open standard architecture, antenna distribution system that will allow USSOCOM to connect a series of RF receiver/transmitters that can be electronically assigned to any antenna connected to the system. SI2’s design will allow an operator to reconfigure an RF device then remotely connect the device to an optimized antenna without the manual effort of disconnecting and reconnecting RF cabling. SI2 will leverage its OpenVPX wideband RF electronic designs into an interconnected distribution network that will allow signals to be routed to antennas in from VHF through C-bands. SI2’s design will allow USSOCOM to reduce the number of antennas on a mobility platform by enabling resource sharing among RF systems. During Phase II, SI2 will build the prototype antenna distribution system and test it in a laboratory environment. SI2’s innovative solution will provide USSOCOM, other DoD sectors, and interested parties, with an antenna distribution system that combines custom OpenVPX RF distribution hardware, COTS embedded processors, and open standard software interfaces.
