    Abstract: Various countermeasure dispensing systems (or CMDSs) and method of use are described herein. CMDS may include a dispenser assembly operably engaged with a platform where at least one electrical connection provides electrical communication between the dispenser assembly and a sequencer. CMDS may also include a magazine assembly operably engaged with the dispenser assembly, wherein the magazine assembly comprises a magazine configured to hold at least two countermeasure expendables. CMDS may also include a breechplate assembly operably engaged with the magazine assembly and adapted to dispense the at least two countermeasure expendables. CMDS may also include at least one magazine identification switch (MIS) operably engaged with the magazine assembly and the breechplate assembly. CMDS may also include that the at least one MIS is configured to enable the sequencer and the breechplate assembly to selectively dispense at least one countermeasure expendable from the at least two countermeasure expendables.

    Abstract: The system and method generates a pulse or a signal that is transmitted between a central processing unit or processor and an Ethernet integrated circuit card to program a trigger generator in the IC. The pulse is effectively a 1PPS signal that is provided to the IC, which may be in the form a field programmable gate array to enable timing synchronization. The trigger in the IC may also generates an interrupt to the processor so a driver in the CPU is instructed to set the next trigger. For the trigger to be accurately controlled, the control routine is implemented in the driver existing in kernel space rather than user space. A routine or protocol periodically polls the interrupt to determine when the trigger must be reset.

    Abstract: Techniques are provided for a radiation hardened memory system. A memory system implementing the techniques according to an embodiment includes a redundancy comparator configured to detect differences between data stored redundantly in a first memory, a second memory, and a third memory. The redundancy comparator is further configured to identify a memory error based on the detected differences. The memory system also includes an error collection buffer configured to store a memory address associated with the memory error, and a memory scrubber circuit configured to overwrite, at the memory address associated with the memory error, erroneous data with corrected data. The corrected data is based on a majority vote among the three memories. The memory system further includes a priority arbitrator configured to arbitrate between the memory scrubber overwriting and functional memory accesses associated with software execution performed by a processor configured to utilize the memory system.

    Abstract: Techniques are provided for a dynamically reconfigurable two times (2×) oversampled channelizer. A channelizer implementing the techniques according to an embodiment includes a polyphase filter, a two phase reorder circuit, a fast Fourier transform (FFT) circuit, and a two phase merge circuit. The polyphase filter is configured to filter time domain input data to control spectral shaping of frequency bins of the channelizer output. The two phase reorder circuit is configured to split a 2× oversampled data stream into two parallel, critically sampled data streams. The FFT circuit is configured to transform each stream into the frequency domain. The two phase merge circuit is configured to merge the two streams of frequency domain data into a single stream of 2× oversampled frequency domain data for distribution onto frames of frequency bins. Reconfigurable parameters for the channelizer include filter coefficients, number of filter folds, and number of frequency bins.
