Abstract :
In support of next-generation satellite communication systems and other payload processing capabilities, SEAKR Engineering is developing a flexible, high-performance modem architecture that has reconfigurable processing resources at its core. This paper outlines the architecture design and major technological achievements required to support dynamic operational environments with an eye on supporting high volume manufacturing programs. The design of the flexible modem and its capability to dynamically reconfigure to accommodate processing load and failures will be featured.
