Research abstract
Digital cross correlation represents the ideal method of realizing the optimal (matched) filtering of the wide variety of time dependent waveforms used by the DoD and thereby the maximum probability reception in high EMI/dense signal environments. Direct from RF, direct reception is increasingly feasible as fast clocking digital technologies such as SiGe, III-V semiconductors, and superconducting electronics became mature. Combining direct reception and digital cross-correlation on RF waveform seems the ideal performance path to software define radios. The digital reference waveform must, however, be delivered high clock speed if the subtleties of the waveform are to be reproducible. Unfortunately, the speed of cheap mass memory seems destined to behind high speed logic by at least 10X. Thus a new, affordable arbitrary bit stream generator box that muxes large COTS memories to high output speed is needed.BENEFITS: a
