Comtech Telecommunications Corp. Receives $4.4 Million Contract Award for High Power Amplifiers.MELVILLE, N.Y. -- Comtech Telecommunications Corp. (Nasdaq:CMTL CMTL Chief Military Training Leader CMTL Center for Mathematics, Teaching and Learning ) announced today that its New York-based subsidiary, Comtech PST PST Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia, see there Corp., has received a $4.4 million contract from Raytheon for the production of the Integrated Radio Frequency Assembly (IRA Ira, in the Bible Ira (ī`rə), in the Bible. 1 Chief officer of David. 2, 3 Two of David's guard. IRA, abbreviation IRA. ) used in the Enhanced Position Location Reporting System The Enhanced Position Location Reporting System (EPLRS) is a secure, jam resistant, computer controlled communications network that distributes near real-time tactical information, generally integrated into radio sets, and coordinated by a Network Control Station. (EPLRS EPLRS Enhanced Position Location and Reporting System (also seen as EPLARS) ) UHF (Ultra High Frequency) The range of electromagnetic frequencies from 300 MHz to 3 GHz. In the U.S., analog television has used UHF channels 52 to 69 in the 700 MHz band. radio. The EPLRS radio provides a robust, on-the-move, high-speed, automated data exchange using a contention-free networking architecture. This guarantees speed of service to time critical users. Effective air defense demands the timely distribution of command and control, situational awareness Situation awareness or situational awareness [1] (SA) is the mental representation and understanding of objects, events, people, system states, interactions, environmental conditions, and other situation-specific factors affecting human performance in information and exchange of air and ground track data. EPLRS is the reliable communication system selected by the Department of Defense to meet those demands. EPLRS also fulfills the requirements for collecting data from widely dispersed systems in the forward battle areas, and sending the information back to the combat force. The EPLRS radio network is a reliable system that automatically reconfigures itself to overcome the line-of-sight limitations of UHF communications, as well as jamming threats. Fred Kornberg, President and Chief Executive Officer of Comtech Telecommunications Corp., said, "This is another significant follow-on order for Comtech PST since it affirms Raytheon's confidence in Comtech as an integrated RF amplifier assembly manufacturer. This IRA assembly includes the high-power RF Amplifier, as well as the UHF Radio Frequency Assembly integrated into a single module." Comtech PST Corp.
