HUNT VALLEY, Md., April 25, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Textron
Systems Electronic Systems, a Textron Inc. (NYSE: TXT) business,
announced today that its Advanced Architecture Data
Recorder/Injector (A2DRI™) has joined
the growing Advanced Architecture Phase Amplitude and Time
Simulator (A2PATS™) product line.
The A2DRI, a new accessory of Textron Systems' proven
A2PATS product line, allows the A2PATS system
to produce or consume user programmable pulse descriptor words
(PDWs), such as the Next-Generation Electronic Warfare Environment
Generator (NEWEG) digital generator (DGEN) compliant format. The
A2DRI interface device ingests and converts the PDWs to
be utilized by the A2PATS, which are able to be
captured, stored and played back.
This product allows fielded and future A2PATS systems
to generate radio frequency (RF) signals in compliance with the
U.S. Navy's NEWEG DGEN standard. A2DRI's eight terabytes
of redundant array of independent disks (RAID) storage allows
existing A2PATS users to store, record and play back
large amounts of PDWs.
The A2DRI can be easily interfaced through Textron
Systems' open architecture commercial instrument line including RF
sources and measurement systems. This new product provides this
unique capability to industrial and institutional customers
alike.
"We are excited to expand our A2PATS product family
through the launch of the A2DRI," says Senior Vice
President and General Manager Steve T.
Mensh. "A2DRI gives current customers a
competitive choice to easily convert NEWEG DGEN compliant PDWs into
the A2PATS format seamlessly."
