Applied Signal Technology, Inc.
Launches Next-Generation Surveillance Product
SUNNYVALE, California,
October 2, 2008 – Applied
Signal Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: APSG) (AST), a leading provider
of advanced signal processing solutions, today launched the first
3G-capable surveillance product that is specifically designed for
ground-based tactical operations and intelligence, surveillance,
and reconnaissance (ISR) applications. The RAIDER Model 680 has
the ability to support survey requirements for very-high-speed
data rates and voice communications as well as process the full
spectrum of communication signals with four times the capacity
over today’s surveillance technologies.
“The emergence of 3G technology is a major
technological and market phenomenon with dynamic projected worldwide
growth. As a result, we anticipate the need to recapitalize existing
surveillance products within the next few years, and the RAIDER
system will be the first 3G-capable surveillance product available,” said
Dr. Joseph Leonelli, Vice President of AST’s Intelligence
and Electronic Warfare business. “We have made tremendous
progress in validating the value and versatility of our surveillance
products for many ISR applications. We are confident this new product
will provide an effective signal surveillance capability.”
Initial RAIDER product orders have already been secured. The
company is currently in discussions with other customers that have
expressed a strong interest in its RAIDER product as well as its
ROGUE man-pack and HYDRA airborne ISR systems.
AST has invested more than twenty years of research and development
in this high-capacity signal surveillance technology to offer a
complete line of ISR products for ground-fixed, expeditionary,
and airborne missions serving the national security market.
