Spectrum provides advanced technology based on the latest processor architectures and software standards for the purpose of processing wireless signals, whether they are commercial air interface protocols like CDMA or military waveforms like the Wideband Networking Waveform.
Fundamentally, Spectrum’s products are built around the principle of choice providing optimal processing platform configuration for customers' specific development and deployment requirements. Customers can choose the type of processing element selected for each stage of their algorithm, the number of processors per stage, the configuration and types of dataflows between processors and stages, the level of hardware abstraction or programmability, and even the software development tools.
Spectrum was one of the first companies to recognize the changing paradigm of high performance to embedded computing platforms from homogeneous processing (i.e., the use of a single type of processor) to heterogeneous processing (i.e., the use of multiple types of processors). Allowing different combinations of general purpose processors (GPPs), Digital Signal Processors (DSPs), and Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) provides solutions based on customers’ requirements for performance, programmability, power consumption and cost.
Spectrum also recognized the movement from dedicated resources, where an entire processor or processors are dedicated to a specific algorithm or waveform, to shared resources, where processors in the system may be supporting multiple algorithms or waveforms at the same time, resulting in a more cost effective and efficient system. Spectrum can support both models with its technology, an advantage that will pay off in 2004 and beyond as more communications systems move to a shared resources model.
Spectrum has created a layered software operating environment that allows customers to program at their desired level of hardware abstraction. This environment also encompasses the Software Communications Architecture (SCA) mandated for all military communications programs going forward. As a result, Spectrum is a recognized industry leader in the development of processing engines supporting software defined radios.
Despite the innovation and many advantages displayed in Spectrum’s range of solutions, Spectrum is committed to the furthering of technology via industry standards, as demonstrated by its active leadership and participation in the SDR Forum, RapidIO Trade Association, VMEbus International Trade Association (VITA) and PCI Industrial Computer Manufacturers Group (PICMG). Examples of direct Spectrum contribution include specifications for RapidIO, a next generation high speed switch fabric; VITA 42, RapidIO beween a mezzanine module and carrier board; and PICMG 2.18, RapidIO over the CompactPCI backplane. These leadership positions allow Spectrum to provide the voice of the customers to the industry and influence the standards efforts for the benefit of their customers.
