BANC3 has successfully completed a DoD product contract, demonstrating a groundbreaking Computationally Efficient Wideband RF Sensing Algorithm for Threat Detection. This advanced technology enhances U.S. Army ground combat vehicles’ ability to detect and identify RF threats in dense, complex environments with unprecedented efficiency. Leveraging state-of-the-art Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) direct RF multi-chip package (MCP) technology, BANC3’s novel approach utilized its software-defined receiver (SDRX) hosted on the Intel Direct RF Agilex 9 MCP.

The algorithm was rigorously tested across an RF spectrum spanning from 10 MHz to 18 GHz, enabling real-time threat identification with an impressive instantaneous bandwidth of 6.4 GHz. The solution demonstrated remarkable performance in evaluating over 10,000 signal sequences, achieving reliable threat signal recognition, even in high-density signal environments.
BANC3’s research modeled real-world RF threats, including radar surveillance, moving target indicators, and radio-controlled threats such as remote detonation devices. The SDRX architecture, integrating a Real-Time Spectrum Analyzer (RTSA) and Digital Instantaneous Frequency Measurement (DIFM), continuously monitors signals in both time and frequency domains, compressing large ADC data streams into efficient spectrum and pulse descriptor words for rapid threat correlation
