The next generation of direct RF is here and ready to redefine what’s possible in radar and
software radio, from jamming to electronic intelligence to significant performance increases
in bandwidth capture. This white paper explores why it is important to move toward direct RF,
discusses its capabilities and applications, and shows how innovative products like those from
Mercury Systems can help make the DoD’s vision a reality.
