Research abstract
Not Available Physical Optics Corporation (POC) proposes a unique controller system design based on the emerging reconfigurable computing technology (RCT) for phased away antenna control. RCT is the driving force behind a major paradigm shift in digital computing. The RCT approach enables rapid flexible design which is essential to dynamic diverse-phased array antenna applications. Because of the high degree of reconfigurability and other features such as low-cost, relatively high density, short time-to-market, in-field failure-free, etc., RCT has become the most popular system design tool for modern computer systems. Compared with ASIC, DSP, and commercial advanced single-chip controller design approaches, RCT offers a high degree of flexibility and expedites the work of the designers to rapidly and inexpensively implement advanced systems and verification of hardware/software integration. In this project, the main effort is to design and demonstrate a controller breadboard based on the RCT for implementing distributed beam steering algorithms. During Phase I, POC will design, fabricate, assemble and test a preliminary general purpose controller. In Phases II and III, POC will this model into a full prototype, and begin strategic relationships with future users for mass production and commercial distribution.
