A Streamlined Approach to Analyzing Next- Generation Electronic Warfare Capabilities

With a rich history dating back over a century, electronic warfare has become a powerful tool at the warfighter's disposal. However, as technology continues to advance, so must the capabilities of electronic warfare systems and the tools used to evaluate them. A team at the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) leveraged a unique combination of technical and operational expertise to develop a streamlined analysis approach to minimize turnaround time for analysis. This article overviews this approach and highlights a robust digital signal processing tool providing quick and thorough analysis results for mission-critical and operationally relevant test data.
