Description: The United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) is seeking an algorithm that utilizes the high-frequency reception capability of the DRT4411 Software Defined Radio to quickly geolocate a radio frequency transmitter target by means of signals measured by a distant receiver. The USSOCOM PM-JTWS synchronizes acquisition of signals intelligence capabilities across the air, ground and maritime domains. The PM develops and fields interoperable, networked sensors based on open hardware and software architectures to enable the common operating picture and send data to all-source analysis tools. PM-JTWS is looking to exploit the high-frequency reception capability of the currently fielded DRT4411 Software Defined Radio that is currently not utilized for geolocation.
