MORE develops and manufactures a range of products that give its customers dominance in the modern electromagnetic battlefield.

The company is a global leader in developing next-generation Electronic Attack systems based on ORFM technology, representing the future of such systems.

MORE offers a wide range of integrated electronic intelligence (ELINT) and electronic warfare (EW) products, which are implemented using unique and groundbreaking ORFM DRFM technology.

The company's products support a variety of operational scenarios and are designed for installation on both manned and unmanned platforms.

MORE’s products have undergone extensive operational testing and proven highly effective against various relevant threats.

 


Challenges of Modern EW Arena - DRFM is just not enough

For EA to be effective it should always be ahead of the threat. Modern emitters utilize complex waveforms characterized by LPI capabilities such as low-power long-width (compressed) pulses as a mean of performance optimization while preventing ESM systems from intercepting their transmissions. As a result, provision of efficient EA capabilities against advanced LPI radars is challenging, particularly when generation of high fidelity echo signals with matched spectral-temporal characteristics is required.

State-of-the-art DRFM systems are challenged by the advanced emitters due to DRFM's

  • Limited instantaneous BW (UWB scenario) and sensitivity
  • Emitter’s waveform dependent (hard to produce true Doppler-shifts)
  • Phase quantization distorts target’s fidelity
  • Limited number of overlapping targets
  • High latency weakens the self-defense capability

Comparison of ORFM and DRFM

The following document provides an overview and comparison of ORFM and DRFM technologies, highlighting their key differences, applications, and operational principles.

RF-Photonics for EA

Based on the advantages of RF-Photonics technology, MORE has developed efficient EA capabilities for the advanced EW scenarios. The advantage of this approach is in the direct processing of UBW RF signals, without frequency up/down conversions and sampling which are inherit drawbacks of DRFM systems. The RF-Photonics based EW systems are characterized by


Unprecedented immediate BW in a single channel
Range, amplitude and phase modulations while maintaining Range-Doppler matching

Entirely analog processing (no RF up/down conversions, sampling or quantization)
Low latency
