SUMMARYSUMMARY
CLIC-CLAC Offers Solution To Frequency Hopping and Wideband Cosite EMI Issues For Legacy and New Waveforms– SINCGARS (30 MHz – 88 MHz) & HAVEQUICK (225 MHz – 400 MHz)
Validated By Analysis And Component Measurements. Final Prototype VHF And UHF Hardware Demonstration Scheduled Dec 08
– 2 MHz – 30 MHzHFRG Is Obsolete And Out Of ProductionCVN21/CVN-78 Requires HF Suite
– 450 MHz – 2.0 GHzSPAWAR Presently Has Several SBIR Contracts For CLIC Applications For EW Systems
Validated MATLAB Model (MEMCAM) Allows Early Identification of Cosite EMI Issues And Allows Performance / Cost Trade Space Determination
