Allen-Vanguard is launching the next-generation core of its latest RF multi-function Cyber Electromagnetic Activities (CEMA) platform at IDEX 2025, providing the necessary flexibility and adaptability for front-line troops to quickly and easily dominate the CEMA space.
The advanced core will underpin the company’s next-generation family of multi-function CEMA platforms. This new capability leverages the latest in analog signal processing technology, and is the result of Allen-Vanguard’s engineering development within its future program of systems, the ‘NXT’ family.
This delivers a highly integrated, mixed-signal, front-end technology, combined with enhanced RF processing power to deliver increased flexibility and improved detect and defeat capability for end users.
The new technology enables direct RF sampling, without the use of tuners, across the entire RF spectrum used by unmanned aerial systems (UAS) and Radio Controlled Improvised Explosive Device (RCIED) devices.
Allen-Vanguard has reportedly engaged experts to collaborate on the new project, enabling the powerful software-defined radio (SDR) platform to form the core of the company’s new solutions.
The new platform comprises an RF System on Module (SOM) and a customizable product-specific application interface card, which means users can detect, protect, and defeat a wider range of threats from each system.
Bobby Strawbridge, President of Allen-Vanguard, commented, “The Middle East has been a core market for Allen-Vanguard for a long time, and we have used our experience gained from supporting our clients in the region to help design and develop this new technology. Not only is it exciting from an engineering perspective and enables the EW capabilities that our customers demand, but it also should be of interest to any OEM in the EW sector.
“This card delivers best of breed metrics in a small, customisable footprint at a fraction of the price of standardised formats. I am very grateful to our partners and our in-house design team, who together have pushed the boundaries of what is possible in the CEMA space.”
Allen-Vanguard will be showcasing its solutions at IDEX 2025 on stand C3-006 from 17-21 February at the ADNEC Centre, Abu Dhabi.
