MACsec encryption extends the value of copper-based Ethernet LANs - Story
February 20, 2019
There is vastly more copper-based twisted-pair Ethernet infrastructure deployed on military and aerospace platforms than there is fiber-optic cable-based wiring. For one thing, the cost of copper cabling and its related connectors keeps being driven downward by the economies of scale brought about by its widespread use, helping to make it virtually ubiquitous. But fiber-optic cabling, until fairly recently, was the only practical choice for applications that required high-speed 10 Gbit/s connectivity. Driving demand for higher-speed Ethernet is the increased use of applications such as HD video surveillance on deployed platforms, resulting in ever-larger high-resolution file sizes.

Configurable FPGAs: More than a point solution - Story
February 15, 2019
Two major challenges confront developers of military radar-processing systems. The first challenge is that modern multiband radar sensors produce huge amounts of data that need to be brought into the system's digital-processing stage as accurately and rapidly as possible in order to generate actionable data for the warfighter. The second challenge in this arena is the rapid rate of change that missions must respond to, as adversaries continually morph and evolve their tactics and develop more sophisticated technologies.
