Kratos Demonstrates All-Digital Multi-Mission Edge Capability at the 37th Space Symposium
March 31 2022 - 7:00AM
Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, Inc. (Nasdaq: KTOS), a
leading National Security Solutions provider, announced today that
along with technology partner Kymeta, it will provide live
demonstrations of an all-digital multi-mission capability at the
37th Annual Space Symposium in Colorado Springs, Colorado, April
4-7.
The demonstrations will include Kratos’
OpenSpace™ Satcom and RF Carrier Analysis virtual network functions
running on a generic (x86) compute device that is digitally paired
with a Kymeta electronically steered antenna (ESA) mounted inside a
tactical H2 vehicle. This virtual architecture enables a
universally deployable solution within a broad range of resilient
ground station and cloud environments.
This demonstration highlights the first ever
implementation of the industry interoperability standard developed
by the Digital Intermediate Frequency Interoperability (DIFI)
Consortium inside a terminal application. DIFI members include the
U.S. DoD CIO, U.S. Army, U.S. Navy, U.S. Space Force, DISA, as well
as key commercial companies, and the standard has already been
specified in at least one U.S. defense-related RFP. The industry’s
growing adoption of the DIFI standard supports the DoD’s digital
transformation goals, as well as freeing operators from the vendor
lock-in characterized by proprietary systems.
“This demonstration will show that critical
satellite network operations can be made increasingly virtual,
interoperable and software-defined all the way to the network’s
edge,” said Kevin Tobias, Director of Edge Products at Kratos. “It
is another step forward in proving that the ground layer can enable
multi-orbit networks and multi-mission operations, for example
Satcom, space domain awareness (SDA) and ISR together as dynamic,
virtualized applications, and all supporting the DoD’s digital
transformation goals and JADC2 principles regarding open-standards
and interoperability.”
Attendees at the 37th Annual Space Symposium can
view these industry-first capabilities at the Kratos H2 located on
site for demonstrations during exhibit hall hours, April 4-7, 2022.

About Kratos OpenSpaceKratos’
OpenSpace family of solutions enables the digital transformation of
satellite ground systems to become a more dynamic and powerful part
of the space network. The family consists of three product lines:
OpenSpace SpectralNet for converting satellite RF signals to be
used in digital environments; OpenSpace quantum products, which are
virtual versions of traditional hardware components; and the
OpenSpace Platform, the first commercially available, fully
orchestrated, software-defined ground system. These three OpenSpace
lines enable satellite operators and other service providers to
implement digital operations at their own pace and in ways that
meet their unique mission goals and business models. For more
