Electronic Warfare
Plextek designs technology for a range of systems related to electronic warfare and signals intelligence (SIGINT). We undertake assignments to meet urgent operational requirements and develop sub-systems for manufacturers who need specialised expertise in areas such as RF, signal processing and high speed digital design.
EW System & Product Design
Electronic warfare demands constant evolution of communications systems, interception equipment, jammers, electronic protection, countermeasures and other specialised equipment. Plextek provides novel solutions and leading-edge technology that enables end-users and equipment manufacturers to stay ahead.
Plextek has experience in the specialised areas required for electronic warfare systems. These include high speed frequency synthesisers, digital processing boards, crypto systems, direction finding and covert communications systems.
Example Projects
- Plextek has developed novel technology that enables communications in the presence of active countermeasures.
- Plextek has developed software defined radio platforms that have high frequency agility whilst maintaining very low levels of phase noise. The system has formed the basis of a number of advanced demonstrator systems and is suitable for a wide range of ECM and ELINT applications.
