Event Sequencer For A Radio Frequency System
First Claim
1. A sequencer for use with an Electronic Warfare system consisting of one or more transmitters and receivers comprising:
- a processor in communication with a memory;
said memory storing instructions executed by said processor to sequence said one or more desired operations;
an output connected to each of transmitter and receiver devices of the transceiver to control power-up and power-down sequences of said transmitter and receiver devices;
wherein said instructions to sequence said one or more operations include;
instructions to prioritize a high-priority transmit operation such that said high-priority transmit operation is carried out in real-time upon request.
