Curtiss-Wright’s Defense Solutions division, a leading supplier of ruggedized ISR and data storage systems, demonstrated an open standards architecture (OSA)-based intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) and electronic warfare (EW) system solution at the recent Tri-Service Open Architecture Interoperability Demonstration (TSOA-ID) in Atlanta.
The demonstration, which highlighted the benefits of OSA by integrating products from four individual companies, featured artificial intelligence (AI) based commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) solutions for signal intelligence (SIGINT) and electronic warfare (EW) situational awareness applications. This deployable solution for RF spectrum situational awareness automatically classifies signals through the use of machine learning. The system also demonstrated certification-ready NSA Type 1 data encryption of ISR data at a read/write throughput of 10/17 Gbps (nominal/maximum) per data channel.
The demonstration included Curtiss-Wright’s 3U OpenVPX CHAMP-XD1 digital signal processing (DSP) module, VPX3-1260 Intel Xeon Coffee Lake single board computer (SBC), VPX3-673 Assured Position, Navigation & Timing (A-PNT) module, and VPX3-687 10GbE network switch module. Emphasizing OSA interoperability, the demonstration also included the 3U OpenVPX Leonardo DRS SI-9172 Vesper Tuner/Exciter, L3Harris-Camden DataCrypt XMC mezzanine module PCIe encryptor and 3U OpenVPX NVMe secure storage module, and General Dynamics Mission Systems SignalEye artificial intelligence-based SIGINT automation threat detection application.
In addition to demonstrating OSA-based interoperability with the ISR SIGINT system at the TSOAID, Curtiss-Wright also participated in the InTeROP Utility Demonstration, providing its VPX3-152 and VPX3-1260 SBCs to highlight the interoperable ecosystem of VPX hardware.
“As an industry leader in the development of open standards architecture solutions, we are very proud to participate in the Tri-Service Open Architecture Interoperability demonstration,” said Lynn Bamford, President, Defense and Power. “Curtiss-Wright is committed to incorporating SOSA-, CMOSS-, and HOST-aligned modules as part of our standard product family and currently has multiple products in development aligned with these standards.”
Curtiss-Wright has been instrumental in the development of the VITA VPX standard, which is a baseline technology in the SOSA, CMOSS and HOST standards. Variants of the CHAMP-XD1 and VPX3-1260 modules featured in Curtiss-Wright’s TSOA-ID demonstration are being developed in alignment with the SOSA Technical Standard.
