Overview

Mistral’s Next-generation Digital RF Module (DRFM) platform is a rugged system consisting of RF Up/Down Conversion using a modulator and demodulator. The Next-generation DRFM platform offers combined data acquisition and processing on a single platform,nutilizing Digital RF Memory for efficient data management. Designed on a very compact form factor, the Next-generation DRFM platform is a conduction-cooled module that can be plugged into any conduction or air-cooled Line Replacement Unit (LRU) and can be operational instantaneously. The Digital RF Module is ideal for ECM, carrier processing, echo generation, and decoy applications. It offers users the flexibility to tailor the system to their specific needs, ensuring cutting-edge performance.

The digitization and reconstruction of the baseband signals are achieved through high-speed ADCs and DACs. The storage and processing are done using QDR Memory and high-performance FPGA. Jitter cleaner and skew adjustment blocks in the Next-generation DRFM platform enabling better phase matching of the clock signals.
