NATIONAL HARBOR, Md. and CHANTILLY, Va., March 17, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Integral Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq:ISYS) announced today that its SATCOM Solutions group will be demonstrating its High Data Rate Modem (HDRM) at the Satellite 2010 Conference. The HDRM represents the next generation of the Software Defined Radio (SDR) suitable for the satellite manufacturing and ground station industry. The HDRM is a high rate, multi-mission satellite modem with data simulation capability.
"The financial demands placed on space systems have forced the industry to transform the way it thinks about data communications," said Stephen Gizinski, Vice President of Integral Systems SATCOM Solutions. "We are pleased to offer an HDRM solution that gives ground station and Integration and Test (I&T) vendors the ability to support multiple missions using reconfigurable setups."
The Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) based HDRM is a one system solution that inputs Intermediate Frequency (IF) data and outputs packetized data over IP for data distribution at data rates greater than 1.7 Gbps.
"We have successfully deployed high performance modems across various industries that span many technologies such as Spread Spectrum, Consultative Committee of Space Data Systems (CCSDS), Common Data Link (CDL) and DVB-S2," said Amit Puri, Director of Satellite Ground Solutions for Integral Systems SATCOM Solutions. "Our modems have been designed to be flexible and easily reprogrammable, which is critical to our customers whose mission requirements are constantly changing."
