GE Intelligent Platforms has been a leading provider of embedded computing technologies for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) since development of this paradigm-shifting new form of military aircraft. UAVs are now revolutionizing how aerial intelligence is gathered and in some cases even how the enemy is engaged. The US Army, Air Force and Navy have all made substantial commitments to even greater use of UAV technology in the future as a way to limit risks to warfighters, conduct missions under conditions not possible by manned flight platforms, and even lower capital and operating costs for battlefield deployments.
The technology requirements of unmanned platforms present unique challenges to contractors. Video capture and streaming capabilities are of major importance both to control the aircraft and obtain meaningful observation of potential objects of interest on the ground. The capture, processing and transmission of enormous volumes of data must be accomplished seamlessly and in real-time with components that incorporate leading-edge size, weight and power advantages. Flight management and control systems (and sometimes weapons management systems) also must meet the unique challenge of operating a battlefield asset from considerable distances.
Many unique GE products have helped launch the UAV paradigm, and continue to move it forward to maturity. Our video capture and processing technology has been deployed in UAVs such as the US Navy Fire Scout as well as a DARPA-funded demonstration of in-flight refueling of a UAV. Video tracking systems from GE such as our ADEPT5000 rugged video tracker have successfully overcome the challenges of data clutter from non-targets, multiple target tracking, and obscuration and decoy attempts to avoid detection. Acquiring the data necessary to perform these surveillance activities is the role of a myriad of sensor technologies, and onboard analog-to-digital data converters must be able to manage that data with near­zero latency.
The latest and greatest technology is of little use if subsystems fail to integrate in an efficient manner. GE Intelligent Platforms’ rigorous subsystem integration and testing programs free contractors and system integrators from the time- and capital­intensive certification of subsystems, and thus help to quickly move UAV concepts out of the design studio and onto the battlefield.

GE Intelligent Platforms’ broad range of rugged systems products give prime contractors just the right level of ruggedization necessary for the environmental conditions involved with sea-going operations. Whether in the protective environment of a control room, the sea-sprayed deck or the high altitudes of an unmanned aerial vehicle, GE can provide a system that will provide the needed combination of longevity and upgradability that sea-going applications demand.
Given that sea systems often must remain in place for decades, we strive to develop products that can survive numerous technology upgrades with a minimum of physical or electrical reconfiguration and recertification. As much as possible, GE designs in the ability to swap out COTS processors or memory chips without changing the board’s physical dimensions or electrical characteristics.
GE has been selected by contractors to provide systems hardware and software for numerous applications throughout the spectrum of sea operations:
›ADCAP (Raytheon) ›SQQ-89 (Lockheed Martin) ›ALFS/LAMPS (Raytheon) ›LFAS (DR A) ›NSSN-SIM/STIM (DSR) ›P3 upgrade (Boeing) ›P8 MMA (Boeing) ›Fire Scout (Northrop Grumman) ›AN/BPS-16 (Northrop Grumman)
With decades of experience in sea systems, chances are very good that GE already has strong experience in a given technology challenge. We are a leading supplier of sonar technology, with installations on more than 400 vessels around the world including the US Navy’s Virginia class submarines. Our use of COTS technology has enabled us to leverage new multi-core processors and serial switched fabrics for a range of applications such as radar systems. We have developed a wide selection of communications technologies necessary for sea operations, including Software Defined radio transceivers and standards-based systems, switches and I/O modules. GE’s ballistic predictors provide full ballistic prediction to increase the probability of a first-round hit, while our Dynamic Gun Alignment system affords an automated, video-based solution for sea-going weapon system alignment.
Sea systems applications that have been provided by GE Intelligent Platforms include:
›Shipboard network control ›Sensor processing ›Target detection and tracking ›Communications and IFF ›Fire control computers ›Integrated display units

systems
Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) computing systems afford end users access to the most advanced technology at mass-market prices. Platform time-to-market is dramatically reduced along with technical risk. Because the development has already been performed up-front for these standard systems, the non-recurring engineering expense has been greatly reduced, if not eliminated. Emplacing COTS systems in the harsh environments typically encountered in military and aerospace applications will usually require special­ized packaging to achieve certification for the lifecycle demanded by the end user.
GE Intelligent Platforms excels at the design of COTS systems with levels of ruggedization ranging from benign to being capable of withstanding harsh military and aerospace conditions such as thermal extremes, vibration, shock, sand and dust, salt fog, humidity, acceleration, electromagnetic interference, and nuclear/ electromagnetic pulse, as well as human intrusion and compro­mise. We provide a full range of COTS system packaging services, from creation of specifications to rigorous qualification testing. GE has developed five levels of circuit board ruggedization, each providing the optimal balance of cost, performance and reliability.
Our engineers first recommend a COTS board based on the performance requirements of the speci­fication, then select the chassis and racks based on the type of cooling (forced air, convection, or conduction) required, as well as estimates of power dissipation, board/slot count, and user environ­ment. After engineering analysis and simulation assures performance capabilities, prototype and qualification testing is conducted to certify that the system will indeed function in the intended environment. All rugged COTS equipment is tested to environmental test specifications that have the widest applicability. MIL-STD-810 has emerged as an important environmental test standard for rugged COTS systems because of its broad applicability to rotary/fixed-wing aircraft as well as ground/amphibious vehicles, but some unique rugged systems specifications require specialized design, analysis and testing to certify the required level of performance in a given environment.
GE has developed a comprehensive process for the develop­ment of rugged systems. Our ISO 9000/AS9100 certified design and testing process is exhaustive, but our extensive design data and experience base greatly reduces development time while assuring low program risk for the contractor.
COTS products making up a rugged system can include single board computers, analog and digital I/O boards, Ethernet switches, solid state drives, power supplies, and chassis. Boards, especially I/O boards, can be modified to meet program speci­fications, and customer-designed or third-party products can also be included in the system specification. Raised lids and media adapters can be included in the chassis design to accom­modate the routing of fiber optics and cabling, as can external doghouses for external removable memory.

COTS Rugged Systems
Do more without more.
That was the message in a June 2010 directive from the U.S. Under Secretary of Defense to military procurement specialists regarding ways to deliver better value to both the taxpayer and warfighter. A September 2010 Guidance document on means of actually increasing value to stakeholders in an age of shrinking defense budgets took aim at the contracts for goods and services out of the defense budget.
One key method of effecting cost savings that Under Secretary Ashton B. Carter directed procurement officials to undertake is a shift from Cost Plus contracts to Fixed Cost contracts. In the former, contractors had the ability to pass unanticipated costs along to the Department, while the Fixed Price para­digm holds the contractor to a price determined before the signing of the contract.
The new COTS Rugged System (CRS) line from GE Intelligent Platforms can help contractors achieve platform goals while minimizing the risks inherent with the Fixed Price mode of operation. These SWaP-optimized packaged and pre-validated control computer systems provide rugged computing platforms with a wide range of I/O flexibility for a wide variety of military and aerospace applications. Any CRS computer is deployable as soon as the field application is ready or used as starting point for multiple application-specific configurations. Furthermore, the CRS concept greatly reduces non-recurring engineering fees and system development risks, while providing an initial Technology Readiness Level (TRL) of 6.
A major source of contractor risk, integration of off-the-shelf boards, is already completed, thus shortening the contractor’s time to project completion. These modular systems are fully tested and qualified for rugged systems deployment by a company renowned for rugged systems deployments in platforms such as UAVs, missiles, ground vehicles and manned aircraft.
Through computing solutions such as the GE Intelligent Platforms CRS product line, contractors themselves can achieve more without more risk or development cost.

GE Intelligent Platforms specializes in the design and manufacture of single board computers (SBCs) tailored to meet the computing and ruggedization needs of the customer. With a wide range of form factors, processor speeds, memory configurations, I/O options and five levels of ruggedization, our line of COTS-based SBCs provide tremendous computing flexibility with considerably lowered program risk.
We recently announced a new line of SBC products based on the 2nd generation
®
Intel
Core i7™ processors. These new dual- or quad-core processors effectively double the computing capabilities of the previous generation of Core i7 proces­sors, along with the addition of Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX) technology. AVX doubles the processor’s vector engine from 128 to 256 bits for a tremendous improvement in floating point processing. Radar, sonar, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, and signal processing will be some of the military and aero­space applications to benefit most from the addition of AVX to these Intel flagship processors. Current GE products include the VPXcel3 SBC324 and VPXcel6 SBC624 in 3U and 6U VPX form factors, respectively, the XCR14 rugged 6U CPCI SBC, and the XVR14 rugged 6U VME SBC. All of these SBCs bear dual- or quad-core 2nd genera­tion Core i7 processors running at up to 2.5 GHz.
In parallel, we also announced a new line of SBC products based on Freescale Semiconductor’s QorIQ 45nm communications and computing platforms designed for high performance in a low-power envelope. Our PPC9B and IMP3A SBCs use the dual-core P2020 processor running at 1.2 GHz and are specifically targeted at SWaP-constrained applications. Our PPC10A, SBC312 and SBC612 products are based on the QorIQ P4080 processor which has eight Power Architecture
e500mc cores running at 1.5 GHz and are targeted at high-performance applications where benefits can be achieved by software parallelism across the available cores. The eight-core QorIQ offer the ability to compress many existing multi-board applica­tions into one or two multi-core SBCs to achieve considerable SWaP advantages.

computer on modules
Computer on Modules (COM) address the need for standardized small form factor computing platforms. COMs are the perfect solution for long-term applications where technology and performance upgrades are a must. COMs are without connectors for USB, LAN, VGA, etc. and must be attached to an I/O board to fullfil an application's I/O requirements. Upgrades are easily managed through an exchange of the existing Computer Module to one based on the latest technology, in effect extending the lifecycle of the application.

network connectivity
OpenVPX
Military strategy increasingly demands more efficient use of computer networks to obtain the highest level of situational awareness in the field. Achieving this growing requirement will require greater use of distributed, network-centric multi­processor computing technologies to gather and analyze data, then distribute information garnered from disparate sensor systems in the field. The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) in 2007 ratified the VITA 46 standard, also known at VPX, to facilitate interoperability at the board level, but the need for similar interoperability at the system level quickly became apparent. GE Intelligent Platforms participated in the development of a VPX-based system specification that in 2010 was ratified as VITA 65, or OpenVPX.
This new standard allows VPX interoperability to be brought up to multi-vendor, multi-module integrated systems. The end result is module-to-module, module-to-backplane, and devel­opment chassis integration. OpenVPX specifies a set of system architectures using existing VPX Ruggedized Enhanced Design Implementation (REDI) standards and drafts with a minimum of changes. It provides definitions for multiple planes for utility, management, control, data and expansion, as well as a variety of sizes for serial communication pipes.
OpenVPX also defines several types of profiles for structure and hierarchy, including slot profile, backplane profile, module profile, and development chassis profile. The backplane profiles are further defined for centralized switching, distributed switching, and hybrid backplane topologies. System-level specifications defining interoperability points within the architecture include backplane topologies and development chassis, module-level pin out and protocol definitions, chassis and backplane definitions for power and system signals, and interoperability compliance recommendations.
Our GRA111 graphics board uses the NVIDIA GT 240 chipset in a 3U form factor for radar systems and other mil/aero applications. The GRA111 provides RS170, NTSC and PAL, DVI, and VGA I/O for configuration flexibility, and can be air- or conduction-cooled.

atca
With limited real estate for mezzanines on next­generation ATCA processor blades, adding I/O with AdvancedMCs may not be an option. Intelligent Advanced Rear Transition Modules (ARTMs) offer a powerful, flexible solution. Using the Zone 3 connector through the rear of the ATCA blade,
system designers can tailor the I/O capabilities of their processor blades to their application. Intel­ligent ARTMs do more than simply extend a port; they add functionality to the processor blade. GE can customize the functionality and the pinouts for specific applications.

We also offer our market-leading AXIS suite of multiprocessor software that includes an inte­grated development environment and high-performance math and function libraries that reduce development time and maximize performance for even the most demanding signal and data processing applications. Our multiprocessor hardware and software products have been incorporated into numerous deployed platforms that include underwater and naval surface sonar, land-based radar, and airborne sensor, image and radar processing.
The DSP280 is a rugged dual socket multiprocessor based on the 2nd Generation Intel Quad Core i7 that was designed to meet the rigorous real-time demands of applications such as intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR), radar, sonar, image and sensor processing across a wide range of platforms including manned and unmanned airborne, ground and naval vehicles.
The IPN250 is the world's first 6U OpenVPX GPGPU COTS board for rugged military and aerospace applications. Customers can deploy their CUDA, OpenCL, OpenGL and video and image processing applications developed on Intel- and NVIDIA platforms. The IPN250 delivers unprecedented levels of computing perfor­mance for SWaP-constrained platforms at lower cost, thus creating new application opportunities that were previously unthinkable. The IPN250 enables system integrators to deploy a single COTS module where previ­ously multiple disparate modules would have been required - for example, undertaking front-end processing of sensor-acquired data, digital signal processing, backend processing and graphics/video processing, and delivering high-resolution mission-critical data more rapidly than has previously been possible.
Our lineup also includes the NPN240, which is the world's first rugged, NVIDIA CUDA-enabled dual GPGPU multiprocessor for mili­tary and aerospace applications. The NPN240 features two NVIDIA CUDA-capable GT240 96-core GPUs that enable it to deliver up to 750 GFLOPS peak per card slot. Multiple NPN240s can be linked to single or multiple hosts to create multi-node CUDA GPU clusters capable of thousands of GFLOPs. Providing a highly computationally-dense platform, the NPN240 is ideal for demanding SWaP-constrained appli­cations. Many military/aerospace companies and organizations are finding CUDA technology exciting, as it has been demonstrated to be capable of delivering significant improvements. Indeed, one company experienced a 15x increase in throughput in a radar application.

AXIS
Most application engineers want to focus on application func­tionality rather than underlying hardware complexities.
Our AXIS Advanced Multiprocessor Integrated Software development tools take away a large portion of that soft­ware development burden so that engineers can instead get their new systems completed that much more quickly. The AXIS family consists of three integrated toolsets: AXIS™Flow, AXIS™View and AXIS™Lib.
The AXISFlow interprocessor communications software module facilitates data transport between tasks, processors, boards and systems using high-throughput, low-latency, reconfigu­rable communications channels. Integration of processing elements is seamlessly scalable regardless of project size. In addition, AXISFlow is independent of the type of processor, RTOS, or fabric, so future technology changes will be trans­parent to the communications software. AXISFlow can be operated in stand-alone mode or as an integrated element within the AXIS Advanced Multiprocessor Integrated Software environment.
AXISView provides a suite of graphical software tools for the development of multiprocessor applications. Through tools such as ConsoleView, HardwareView, ApplicationView, Runti­meView, EventView, HealthView and AXISRun, this productivity suite simplifies the process of implementation and analysis of real-time multicore and multiprocessor applications.
The AXISLib optimized DSP and math libraries provide a valuable set of building blocks for the quick and efficient development of applications. Our existing AXISLib-PPC perfor­mance-optimized DSPlibrary for Altivec, and AXISLib-CL DSP library for generic architectures have been joined by two new optimized DSP and vector math libraries. These new libraries, AXISLib-x86 and AXISLIB-GPU, facilitate the development of GE’s single board computer (SBC) and multiprocessor applica­tions for Intel- and General Purpose computation on Graphics Processing Units (GPGPU)-based architectures.
The AXISLib-x86 DSP and math libraries facilitate the develop­ment of military and aerospace applications in sensor and signal processing, radar, sonar, image processing, and signal intelligence for deployed air-, land- and sea-based deployment. Our AXISLib libraries can be deployed on the full range of GE SBCs and multiprocessors based on Freescale’s Power archi­tecture and Intel multicore processors.
The functionality of the AXISLib-x86 module includes compre­hensive signal and vector processing with more than 600 functions. The module is fully optimized for the Intel x86 processor and associated SSE SIMD unit. AXISLib-x86 consists of both single and multi-threaded libraries, thus allowing libraries to leverage multi-core and hyper-threaded processors running SMP. The libraries can be run in development mode with error checking or in production mode for maximum perfor­mance. The suite provides industry-standard API for greatest portability (VSIPL Core 1.0+) as well as GE’s proprietary C API for the greatest level of flexibility across the Windows, VxWorks and Linux operating systems. AXISLib-x86 supports Intel x86 architectures with SSE 3.0 or higher.
Similarly, the new AXISLib-GPU middleware provides a high­performance library of optimized math and DSP functions for efficient development of applications for the emerging multi­processing paradigm of GPGPU technology, and especially GE’s growing line of rugged, NVIDIA CUDA-enabled platforms.
AXISLib-GPU provides comprehensive signal and vector processing functionality, providing the VSIPL API with more than 500 functions. The library is optimized for CUDA and fully optimized for NVIDIA CUDA architecture libraries for GE Intel­ligent Platforms’ GPGPU platforms. The multi-threaded module leverages the massively parallel architecture of the GPU cores’ Single Precision (SP) floating-point data processing capabilities with core computations implemented as CUDA kernels. AXISLib­GPU provides maximum portability, with VSIPL API offering industry-standard API. The module is VSIPL Core Lite-compliant, and provides many functions from the Core 1.0 profile. AXISLib­GPU is portable across the Windows and Linux operating systems, and provides both 32- and 64-bit support.
Our latest AXIS product, AXISLib-AVX, provides more than 600 high-performance DSP and vector math functions for the new 2nd Generation Intel Core i7 multicore, multithreaded platforms with Advanced Vector Extension (AVX). The VSIPL open standard API affords development code portability across multiple CPU generations and architectures for maximum system and appli­cation performance, faster system time-to-market, and easy technology refreshes across the lifecycle of the platform.
AXISLib-AVX is designed to maximize the built-in floating point processing capabilities of the 2nd Generation Core i7 processors in real-time applications such as ISR, UAVs, signal processing and sonar.

many cores on a single device
GPGPU
What started out as a technology to enable graphics capa­bilities for video games has turned out to be a revolutionary way to effectively use hundreds of cores on a single device for certain military and aerospace applications.
General Purpose computation on Graphics Processing Units (GPGPUs) were developed as graphics chips for pixel processing, but subsequent development environments such as Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) and OpenCL have leveraged the cores’ Single Precision (SP) floating-point data processing capabilities for radar processing and other military and aerospace applications.
GPGPU devices do not have the large need for transistors and die space of their GPP counterparts. Thus, GPGPUs have the ability to provide a large number of processing cores on a single device at a minimum of size, weight and power (SWaP).
GE Intelligent Platforms provides GPGPU devices designed to withstand the harsh environments encountered in military and aerospace situations while delivering greatly improved systems performance. For instance, GPGPU ruggedized devices in radar systems can deliver greater range, number of targets, and speed while standing up to extreme temperatures, dust, shock and vibration.
Developing new military and aerospace GPGPU products with minimal SWaP is made easier as a result of a unique partnership
between GE and NVIDIA, whose graphics processing units are based on the CUDA architecture.
In addition to mainstream libraries, GPGPU application development is enhanced by GE’s AXIS advanced integrated multiprocessor software. The AXISLib-GPU software provides the industry-standard Vector, Signal and Image Processing Library (VSIPL) for NVIDIA-based GPU platforms. DSP application developers are able to quickly develop applications through the VSIPL API model without the need to learn GPU programming. AXISLib-GPU supports the development of high-performance DSP and multiprocessing applications on GE’s platforms such as the IPN250, NPN250 and GRA111 graphics boards. These platforms have been deployed for radar, sonar, image processing, signals intelligence and intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) applications.
GE Intelligent Platforms’ AXIS multiprocessing software suite also facilitates the development of complex applications over multiple clusters of GPU platforms. AXISFlow provides a communications API for multi-threaded, multi-core and multi­processor communications. Our AXISView provides a set of GUI tools for system visualization, application instrumentation, debugging and monitoring, allowing the developer to speed the process of timing the applications for the best real-time perfor­mance on the chosen system.

real-time video for military and security
Video Compression
As real-time video becomes an increasingly important deci­sion-making tool for military and security platforms such as unmanned vehicles and border security, so too does the need to be able to transmit and record high-definition video feeds at increased frame rates. With an increase of up to 12 times the amount of data (compared to standard definition video feeds) now required to squeeze through the same narrow bandwidth network, video compression has become a necessary tool to accomplish this data-gathering mission.
GE Intelligent Platforms offers video compression boards that provide a range of scalability, latency, and size, weight and power (SWaP) specifications. The most widely used video compression codec, H.264, provides the most effective blend of high-quality video while achieving better than 95% compression rates. It was around this codec that we based our latest XMC module, the ICS-8580. This module takes video compression to a new level with low-bandwidth, low-latency, and high-quality video from high-definition sources. Despite its low power requirement, the easy-to-use ICS-8580 is the most powerful embedded video compression/decompression engine on the market, boasting flexible video input and output support, data connectivity and bandwidth management capability.
This small-yet-rugged module is deployable in the harsh envi­ronments encountered by military and aerospace platforms such as unmanned aerial vehicles. The module can capture from a variety of video inputs, merge audio and other external data, and then send compressed streams across a network for processing or storage. The ICS-8580 can also be configured as a decompression engine and display the uncompressed video on local displays. The ICS-8580 can support two high-definition video streams or four standard-definition streams. Latencies of less than 75ms can be reliably achieved, with 50ms achievable in some instances.
The ICS-8580 supports many system connectivity options, including a stand-alone mode that removes the need for a single board computer. As a result, the surveillance platform is less complex and saves valuable SWaP while potentially increasing the video capabilities needed to carry out its mission. To quickly adapt to changing system requirements, this flexible video compression board can implement different compression codecs (such as JPEG2000) by simply updating the software configuration.

applied image processing
Whether for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), air-to­ground, ground-to-air, ground-to-ground, naval tracking, remote control gun platforms, or range instrumentation applications, GE Intelligent Platforms is at the forefront of applied image processing technologies. We are particularly renowned for our rugged, real-time image processing subsystems and commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) video tracking and image processing systems for the military and aerospace arena.
We have more than two decades of experience developing individual boards as well as fully integrated systems for real-time video image processing. Our systems are able to extract the maximum amount of useful information from a raw video data feed and deliver it to users in a manageable form for the highest level of electro optical system performance.
Almost all of our applied image processing products use COTS products to provide the latest commercial technologies that are able to meet inter face and performance requirements without major modifications. The end result is optimal performance from a product that maximizes size, weight and power (SWaP) considerations.
Our array of ADEPT image processing modules has been optimized for data extraction in tasks such as image enhancement, target detection/acquisition, target tracking and system support functions across the full range of military electro optical system applications.
Visualization of video streams is often plagued by camera platform vibrations than make it difficult if not impossible for operators to glean meaningful information from the scene that is presented to them. GE’s real-time image stabilization system is able to elec­tronically remove global motion from a video stream without the SWaP losses inflicted by mechanical inertial stabilization methods.
Operators also benefit from the image fusion algorithm embedded into our applied image processing systems. This tool allows multiple feeds from sensitive to color visible, intensified visible, near-infrared, thermal infrared and tera hertz imagers and fuse the images into a single, meaningful image from which the operator can most effec­tively assess the scene. In addition, our warp engine affords rotation, scaling, and translation for each video source to compensate for image distortion and misalignment between imagers.
video tracking and image processing
Our automatic video trackers and image processors are at the heart of a wide range of commercial, military and paramilitary systems where they provide the highest performance solutions in the smallest, fully environmentally proven hardware packages. A range of proven high-performance algorithms, which can be tailored for the application, allow real-time detection and tracking of targets within the video image which meet user-determined selection criteria. Other functionalities include real-time video fusion and video stabilization. GE's video tracking modules offer a wide range of video and data interfaces in order to offer total flexibility for integration with customer systems and are available in a range of physical formats allowing customers to add auto-tracking and image processing to standard subsystem configurations with the minimum of integration activity.

360° Situational Awareness
Warfighters need to know what is happening all around them and the military assets they control, and a variety of image processing systems from GE Intelligent Platforms can enable just that. Our situational awareness subsystems are found on virtually every type of military platform, including armored vehicles, aircraft, remote unmanned platforms, and security and surveillance installations.
Our subsystems can provide real-time 360° situational aware­ness through high-resolution panoramic video feeds from as many as 16 cameras. These subsystems provide an intuitive, operator-friendly interface that incorporates a virtual camera that can be panned or zoomed with either joystick or touch­screen interfaces. The virtual camera concept eliminates the critical time that would be lost by moving a real camera into position. The subsystem also operates with a wide array of physical sensor positions and orientations.
The video perspective afforded by the camera array affords a very high typical horizontal resolution of about 7,000 pixels. This provides much greater resolving power than fish-eye lens systems, and also provides a more realistic image of the area under surveillance by preserving the intuitive spatial relation­ships of objects. Images are aligned without distortion, leaving straight lines straight when the operator views the image on the display.
The use of multiple cameras provides real-time monitoring of an area much larger than any single sensor system can provide. GE’s ADEPT5000 Multi-Target Video Tracker can provide automatic moving target detection and metadata tagging in the video stream anywhere within the 360° horizon. The subsystems can interface with any type of video-style sensor, including thermal imagers, and can be used with analog video (CCIR/ RS170) as well as digital video interfaces.
GE recognizes that size, weight and power (SWaP) must be conserved in many platforms in which situational awareness systems are deployed. Therefore, we designed our subsystems so that a single display device can manage multiple video input streams that provide the widest possible area of coverage.
The subsystems employ simple calibration and alignment algorithms. They can be operated with images covering any available waveband, and can be coupled with a cued or inde­pendent high-resolution steerable sensor. Our real-time Image Fusion technology can meld full-frame, multi-resolution images streaming from visible and infrared cameras to provide an enhanced image for operators even under sub-optimal viewing conditions. This intelligent subsystem affords higher detail and contrast than one sensor technology alone might provide, thus giving the operator a higher level of information content. The image processing subsystem can be divided into two modes. Data Extraction can provide the detection of events in the field of view, while Visualization offers the presentation of multiple video images and information from the Data Extraction process.
Future tracking subsystems may be expected to face even tighter SWaP constraints in certain platforms, such as UAVs. For these applications, tracking subsystems may drop certain non­critical functionalities in exchange for dramatically reduced SWaP specifications in addition to greater cost-effectiveness.
Another possible future development could be toward develop­ment of entire 360° situational awareness systems as package products to further ensure seamless integration between subsystems.
GE Intelligent Platforms 360° situational awareness subsys­tems are available for deployment in either fixed security installations where an industrial level of environmental performance is required or in mobile military vehicle or similar applications that require full-military, rugged, conduction­cooled environmental performance.

Our new VME-6500 6U VME multifunction I/O board has the ability to provide analog and digital I/O functionality that typically required up to four board slots, thus significantly enhancing per formance and functional density. The VME-6500 provides 8 analog and 16 digital inputs and outputs in a single 6U double Euro form factor. Each of the analog input chan­nels is equipped with a 16-bit ADC, while each analog output channel has a 16-bit DAC. Flexibility of use is facilitated by the configuration of individual I/O from the VME host.
The VME-6500 can go beyond convention VME I/O board functionality through configuration to use onboard or external triggers for analog inputs. Analog outputs can also be configured to generate arbitrary waveforms.

We feature several management options, depending on model from Unmanaged or Managed Layer 2 to Fully Managed Layer -2/3+ switches. Unmanaged switches operate at Layer -2, with no operator interfacing and are designed for easy deployment in simple, well defined applications. Managed switches are available as Layer
-2 only or Layer -2/3+ switches with control and monitoring capabilities via local or remote access. Our managed switches support a wealth of configuration options and protocol support, including multicast , broadcast, spanning tree, and VLANs. Fully Managed switches include both IPv4 and IPv6 switching and routing.

reflective memory nodes
Reflective Memory networks are Real Time Local Area Networks in which each computer always has an up-to-date local copy of the shared memory set. These specialty networks are specifically designed to provide highly deterministic data communications. They deliver the tightly timed performance necessary for a variety of distributed simulation and industrial control applications. Reflective Memory networks have benefited from advances in general-purpose data networks, but they remain an entirely independent technology, driven by different requirements and catering to applications where determinism, implementation simplicity, and a lack of software overhead are key factors.

reflective memory hubs
Managed Reflective Memory hubs are designed to operate with our Reflective Memory real-time network products. Managed hubs provide a user interface using a standard HTML-based Web browser. The user interface presents status data such as loss of signal and synchronization information. Reflective Memory hubs are also able to automatically bypass ports if they detect a loss of signal or the loss of valid synchronization patterns, allowing the other nodes in the network to remain operational.

impressive array of reflective memory products designed to fit into existing military and aerospace environments. We offer the choice between multi-mode for short fiber runs or single-node for spanning long distances between nodes for the fiber optic cable interconnect. Our newly refreshed software tools ease migration from older reflective memory products to newer ones that are fuller-featured and offer higher performance.
Our latest offering is the PCIE-5565 PIORC low-profile PCIe reflective memory node card. This high-speed, low-latency, deterministic interface allows data to be shared between as many as 256 independent nodes at up to 170 MB/s. Each board may be configured with 128 or 256 MB of onboard SDRAM. The local SDRAM provides fast Read access times to stored data, while writes are stored in local SDRAM and broadcast over a high-speed fiber optic data path to other nodes.
No I/O overhead is required, as the transfer of data between nodes is software-transparent. Transmit and receive FIFOs buffer data during peak data rates, thus optimizing the host computer and bus performance to maintain high data throughput. PCIE-5565PIORC is RoHS compliant, and has improved PIO read performance and firmware that can be upgraded in the field.

product lifecycle management
Major military and aerospace assets are not commodity items that can be sent to the scrap heap whenever the next generation of technology is rolled out.

Rather, the lifecycles of these assets are often expected to be deployable for several years and even decades. A well­engineered system or subsystem design can go a long way to helping a platform achieve the required lifecycle, but effective Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) can help ensure that parts are available to service routine or emergency maintenance. Equally important, a PLM program can anticipate technology advances and allow for upgrades to embedded technology with a minimum of hardware or software disruption. The end result is the highest level of repeatable performance coupled with the lowest possible cost of ownership across the lifecycle of a given platform.
GE Intelligent Platforms has military and aerospace PLM expertise that few, if any, other companies can match. PLM has been a core tenet of GE for decades. GE’s long-established PLM team maintains close contact with component suppliers and industry groups such as the Component Obsolescence Group to constantly monitor technology developments and component obsolescence issues. At the heart of the program is a dedication to providing both progressive and defensive Long Term Support.
Progressive support begins on the design table, with embedded products being designed for maximum compatibility or
upgradability even before they are qualified for a system. The list of critical components will include only those elements for which vendors have committed to a long-term production run.
After a product is launched, defensive PLM provides the technical support and service to keep the product running, as well as ensuring that sufficient stores of spare parts are available to avoid the premature shutdown of a system or even the entire platform. When technology obsolescence occurs in the marketplace, GE’s Health Check program will alert the customer and provide possible solutions such as a last-time buy of the components, an appropriate replace­ment component, a redesign of the original product for form, fit, or function compatibility, technology insertion earlier than planned or a lifetime purchase of the components. When components are purchased in bulk, GE also can provide secure, climate-controlled storage for as long as required by the customer.
Long-term product lifecycles demand that critical engineering knowledge is available regardless of personnel changes or corporate restructures. Similarly, testing, diagnostic and repair capabilities must be maintained. GE Intelligent Platforms’ PLM program ensures that such knowledge, protocols and capabilities are available throughout the lifecycle of the platform.
