Discover the Future of Coalition Communications at SDR Europe 2012

LONDON, November 12, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --



Defence IQ is pleased to announce Europe's leading military led software defined radio
summit is returning for its 11th iteration. Software Defined Radio Europe 2012 will take
place 4 - 6 December at the Tryp Atocha in Madrid, Spain.



To view the complete programme, the SDR Europe 2012 brochure is available to download
online here [http://www.sdreurope.com/redForms.aspx?id=795790&pdf_form=1&mac=SDREurope_PR
].



Software defined radio capabilities have reached a stage in their development where
they are starting to form the future of soldier level military communications. Dismissing
this capability as an overcomplicated research project is now not an option, and a time
when networking the tactical warfighter is of critical importance, militaries have clear
options they must choose from:



1) Implement a secure, scalable and interoperable SDR capability, that is capable of
supporting ad hoc networking waveforms and high data rates, or:



2) Ensure that their conventional tactical communications systems will be
interoperable with the latest SDR systems



Together with the developments in the Spanish TERSO programme, the French CONTACT
programme and the US's Joint Tactical Radio Systems, the above stark choice facing
military communications experts means that this year's SDR Europe symposium could not have
come at a more pertinent time. SDR Europe 2012
[http://www.sdreurope.com/Event.aspx?id=795814&mac=SDREurope_PR ] will be the chance to
hear from high-level personnel including:
