Software Defined Radios (SDRs)

The SWIFT Software Defined Radios (SDRs) represent a state-of-the-art communication solution. These radios offer a flexible and adaptable approach to wireless communication by employing software-based signal processing. SWIFT SDRs excel in their ability to handle various communication protocols, frequencies, and modulation schemes. With programmable features and real-time reconfigurability, SWIFT SDRs provide a versatile platform for applications ranging from military communications to civilian radio systems, offering a dynamic and efficient solution for modern communication needs.

SWIFT products can include an array of interface options, integrated AES encryption, integrated diplexer/splitter, ranging, and multiple coding, modulation, and framing options to support a wide range of mission area needs.

ARKA offers the following SWIFT products:

• SWIFT^TM -SLX   supports S/L-band Transmit/Receive
• SWIFT^TM -XTS supports S/L-band Transmit/Receive and X-band Transmit
• SWIFT^TM -XTRX supports X-band Transmit/Receive
• SWIFT^TM -XTX supports X-band Transmit

RAVEN^TM SDR

RAVEN represents the latest generation of ARKA’s Software Defined Radios (SDRs). RAVEN provides significant capability in a small package, with greater bandwidth, Gbps throughput, and RF spectrum coverage. RAVEN can readily accept third-party applications to provide a tailored solution.

Power Amplifiers

ARKA’s Wideband Power Amplifier, X-band Power Amplifier (XPA), S-band Power Amplifier (SPA), and Ka-band Power Amplifier (KPA) provide additional RF power to assist systems designers in closing links with margin.  Our power amplifiers are designed to be self-contained with external PA disable and fault monitoring outputs as well as an RS-422 link for easy access to the control and status reporting functions. Our amplifiers are optimized to integrate easily with our SWIFT and RAVEN radio platforms.

CryptoSWIFT^TM

CryptoSWIFT is an easy to install turn-key solution when an inline encryptor is essential. Featuring small size, weight and power, CryptoSWIFT can provide the FIPS 140-3 compliance that your customers expect. CryptoSWIFT hardware can be integrated into a SWIFT SDR chassis to further decrease size and weight requirements and increase system packaging efficiency
