Military Communications

Performance requirements for secure military communications equipment in handheld, man-pack, shipborne, terrestrial, and vehicular radios are on the increase, and Analog Devices is continuously innovating to stay ahead of what’s possible. ADI technologies help solve the toughest industry-specific size, weight, power, performance, and cost challenges.

Secure, reliable communications are critical to any mission. The ADI RadioVerse^® family includes agile transceivers that are system-on-chip radio solutions that bring simplicity to the design of robust, high performance software-defined radios (SDR).

• ADI RadioVerse transceivers for SDR applications
• Data converters, power, rf-microwave, and high performance RF ICs for discrete architectures
• Rapid prototyping platforms ease design challenges and improve the time to market
• Comprehensive software design tools for evaluation and prototyping

The ADI RadioVerse family of narrow-band and wideband software-defined radio transceivers provides 30 MHz to 6 GHz frequency coverage and 12 kHz to 40 MHz channel bandwidths—a first of its kind. Coupled with families for power management, RF amplifiers, tunable filters, clocks, and PLLs, ADI is your one stop shop for tactical radio RF design, offering:

• High speed ADCs and DACs that enable wideband capabilities
• GaAs and GaN amplifiers for higher power and efficiency in smaller footprints
• PLL, VCO, mixer, filter, and amplifier products for upconversion to X- and K-bands

ADI supports discrete and integrated RF and mmW signal chains for mobile satcom (BGAN and VSAT), ground stations, and airborne applications across all frequencies from legacy VHF/UHF to V band.

• ADI RadioVerse integrated transceivers, a superior SWaP-C starting point
• Active antenna solutions using beamformers, phase shifters, and DSP enabled digitizers
• RF amps, T/R modules, mixers, and tunable filters for transmit and receive chains
• A full range of high efficiency power supply solutions to ensure best system performance

5G wireless introduces low latency, ubiquitous high speed data connectivity with higher throughput. It also creates interoperability between disparate systems so that legacy technology can mesh seamlessly with cutting-edge resources. Together, these capabilities could transform:

• Real-time secure command and control
• Intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR)
• Electronic warfare (EW)

In support of this transformation, ADI is creating technologies that enable 5G to work across multiple applications, including artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, predictive analysis, and environmental sensing.
