Silvus Gets $1M DARPA Award For RF Spectrum Scanning

Los angeles-based Silvus Technologies, a startup developing radio frequency (RF) spectrum scanning technology, has scored $1M from a Phase Three DARPA contract, the company said today. The company said it received the funding from the DARPA Scalable Wideband Autonomous RF Mapping MANET (SWARMM), which is aimed at intercepting arbitrary RF activity. Silvus said its technology provides "extremely fast" spectrum scanning in a form factor the size of an iPhone. Silvus says it expected to demonstrate the operation of its technology in a field test in March of 2021.
