X-COM Systems' proposed solution is a comprehensive system for data acquisition, storage and playback of wideband RF signals. This design utilizes advancements in FGPA technology, A/D, D/A, and storage circuitry to create a Wideband RF recorder with well-defined communication interfaces for three major subsystems - acquisition, storage and playback. Scalability is emphasized throughout the design to ensure that newer components derived from technological advances can be easily integrated. For time-critical, real-time functionality, dedicated hardware will be recommended over processor-intensive solutions with shared-bus architectures, which can throttle performance. X-COM's knowledge and experience from previous similar R&D efforts will be detailed to demonstrate the effectiveness of this innovative solution.
