Elektrobit announced it is part of the ESSOR (European Secure Software Defined Radio) Program, a European Defence Agency (EDA) project, consisting of industrial companies from six participating member states, including EB, Finland; Indra, Spain; Radmor, Poland; Saab, Sweden; Selex, Italy and Thales, France.
ESSOR’s aim is to study and develop the Software Defined Radio (SDR) space, an important technology in future wireless communications, to ultimately deliver products and services under a common security basis to increase interoperability between European forces.
The project is scheduled to be completed in 2012, with a total estimated cost of over 100 million euros.
