What’s After REDHAWK SDR?

A Brief History of REDHAWK In 2010, the REDHAWK software defined radio (SDR) framework was developed to address the need for a “standards based” SDR platform that scaled from clusters of servers to embedded platforms. The business strategy was simple:

VSCode: A modern approach to REDHAWK IDE

VSCode REDHAWK Extension As part of the recent development efforts around enhancing REDHAWK to SCA 4.1 compliance, there was a need for an operator UI that would be intuitive for a wide range of users. Updates would have to be

REDHAWK SCA4.1 Compliance

SCA 4.1 Compliant REDHAWK Recently at Geon, we completed a project where we created a Software Component Architecture (SCA) 4.1 compliant framework implementation as a core aspect of the project. For those not familiar with SCA 4.1, it is the

REDHAWK: Executable Device Pattern

In the past Geon has used the Persona Device pattern to manage the deployment and control of FPGA IP within REDHAWK. But more recently the team has been using a much simpler pattern when integrating with FPGAs. This

REDHAWK Container Orchestration

Geon has recently concluded development of a prototype capability for running REDHAWK components on popular container orchestration solutions like Docker Swarm and Kubernetes. This work has been submitted as pull request #17 against the REDHAWK 2.2.8 release. Unlike earlier efforts

FPGA Projects Spotlight

Geon Technologies is well-known for leading the industry in software-defined radio (SDR) frameworks like REDHAWK SDR. However, Geon’s growing portfolio of exciting FPGA projects deserve the spotlight too! This post gives you a recap of some of the FPGA projects

Embedded REDHAWK 2019

Many of you are aware of our use of Open Embedded / Yocto as a way to install REDHAWK SDR on a variety of devices (recently, we published the Xilinx ZCU111 instructions for Rocko). We do this easily by using

Programmable and Persona Devices – Part 3

In our previous two posts, I showed how to setup projects for a Persona Device and Programmable Device. We then ran through a quick systems check of allocating and deallocating personas within a Node. This time we’ll look at setting

GNURadio REDHAWK Integration: Part 2

Introduction We’re back with another installation of our GNURadio and REDHAWK integration pattern. Back in 2017, my colleague Thomas put together a very thorough post regarding his work to integrate these two SDR frameworks for a presentation at the GNURadio

Programmable and Persona Devices – Part 2

Today we’re continuing on with the Programmable and Persona Devices series of posts. In part 1, we detailed how to setup a Persona Device project that can be maintained by the REDHAWK IDE. Those Devices can represent individual hardware loads
