Abstract:
1. A reconfigurable electronic radio system comprising: a plurality of resource assets associated with an electronic radio system multifunction slice, the plurality of resource assets including an antenna interface, an avionics interface, a plurality of transceivers operable over a wide band of frequencies in transmit and receive modes, and a slice processor coupled to the transceivers to control their operation and to process data transmitted and data received through the transceivers; and a master processor coupled to said plurality of resource assets and operable to: generate, during a first mission segment, RF control signals to realize first mission segment radio functions by establishing first mission segment radio function threads through a first optimal set of preselected assets in said plurality of resource assets; and generate, during a second mission segment, RF control signals to realize second mission segment radio functions by establishing second mission segment radio function threads through a second optimal set of preselected assets in said plurality of resource assets.
