Italian developers adopt SDR tools

Selex Communications will use PrismTech's Spectra Tools for the development and deployment of its software-defined radio product line.

Selex Communications, a Finmeccanica company, is to use PrismTech's Spectra Tools for the development and deployment of its software-defined radio (SDR) product line. Selex Communications is involved in the Italian programme for SDR and also participates in international SDR programmes such as MIDS and JTRS. The company's R and D activities on SDR began in 2002 when a program funded by the Italian Ministry of Defence and Selex Communications was established with the aim to develop an SDR family of products that would replace existing radios and run legacy and future waveforms.

Loris Schettino, Defence Communications Marketing Manager at Selex Communications commented: 'Selex Communications is committed to the development of the full family of software-defined radio, both hardware and software, for aeronautical, naval, fixed and tactical platforms'.

'What we were looking for, in relation to the functional components, was a solution that would allow our company to reduce the development time for single platforms'.

'PrismTech's Spectra Tools was the solution that could best satisfy our requirements'.

Dominick Paniscotti, VP of SDR Products at PrismTech commented: 'We are extremely proud to have Selex Communications join the Spectra user community'.

'PrismTech is working with a large number of SDR OEMs, programs and system integrators around the world and is receiving consistent praise for the ease of use, productivity gains and flexibility of the Spectra Tools'.

'We look forward to a long and very successful relationship with Selex by providing superior SDR tools and infrastructure to support the rapid development and deployment of Selex' SDR programmes'.
