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 new pattern

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

OpenEmbedded

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

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

REDHAWK on a Xilinx ZCU111

I’m often asked if we at the Advanced Solutions Group office can install REDHAWK on a fill in the blank. And at this point it should come as no surprise that the tooling we turn to is from the Yocto

JICD

REDHAWK/JICD 4.2 Integration

Overview Over the summer, Geon Technologies collaborated with Technology Management Associates Incorporated (TMA) on an internal research and development project to integrate REDHAWK sensors into the JICD network. The goal of the REDHAWK JICD integration is to allow REDHAWK developers

How To: Python Egg as a REDHAWK Shared Library

This post is a step-by-step guide to creating a REDHAWK Shared Library from a Python Egg. Shared Libraries are package dependencies of REDHAWK Components that enable environment-agnostic deployment to general purpose processors (GPPs). When developing a Python Component, it is
