JJD: What is the goal of the OpenRFM architecture and potential standard?

LG: We are launching the OpenRFM initiative to streamline the integration of RF and digital subsystems in advanced sensor-processing applications. The goal is to create more affordable, flexible, and open solutions. Our desire is to see the formation of a complementary, industry-developed RF ecosystem that gives defense primes and the Department of Defense (DoD) maximum flexibility and adaptability for the rapid deployment of affordable EW and SIGINT systems...
