ABSTRACT:
A navigation signal generator on a framework that provides a standardized object-oriented means for developing and managing signal processing functions. The framework provides the ability to dynamically reallocate functions allowing numerous communications, signals intelligence, and information warfare missions that may be required under a single platform and co-exist with other frameworks. In one embodiment the system is a software defined navigation augmentation using the software defined radio architecture.
