The ICNIA (Integrated Communication Navigation Identification Avionics) system architecture is highly modular. Radio receive and transmit functions are accomplished through real-time computer-controlled interconnection of appropriate modules, whose parameters are also changed in real-time, as required, for each specific signal and signal type. With such an architecture, the more flexible each type of module, the easier and more efficient it is to implement the wide variety of signal types which the ICNIA system must process - including growth capability for adding new signal types in the future. Also, the more flexible each type of module, the more effective the use of alternate signal path interconnections to allow recovery from failures. In summary, the ITT Universal Receiver represents a true advancement in state-of-the-art receiver design. Its flexibility supports the advanced modular architecture requirements of ICNIA. Its size, weight and power savings represent significant contributions to overall size, weight and power savings of the total ICNIA terminal.
