Abstract

Rapid adaptability is a critical requirement for modern communication intelligence systems. This paper explores the concept of combining model based design with a runtime framework to realize an easily reprogrammable signal analyzer for embedded COMINT systems. Signal processing experts design algorithms using modeling tools tailored to the domain. The tools produce output that can be loaded directly to the embedded system. Platform independence is achieved by using XML and CORBA as principal elements of the design.
