Real-Time Modular Distributed Signal Processing
Abstract
Recent developments in the fields of optical and focal plane technologies have resulted in a proliferation of new advanced sensor types. This is particularly true for sensors developed for ballistic missile defense (BMD). A methodology has been developed to analyze the real-time processing requirements of these sensors, and to define real-time processing architectures using a versatile and flexible set of architectural building blocks currently being developed.
