Software Defined Communications (SDC)

Standardization

Software Defined Communications represents a grouping of technologies that traditionally have been separate. For example, Software Defined Radios have combined computational, networking, and communication technologies into a single product. Leveraging the best of the evolving technologies are critical for Software Defined Communications devices.

Technology worldwide has exploded in many diverse ways. It has become apparent that industry standards are required to ensure products, services, and companies will be successful in today’s marketplace. Standards also foster competition by allowing markets to be addressed by a broad number of companies, and reduce the risk of development.
