Keysight Technologies Inc. (NYSE: KEYS), today announced its annual Aerospace and Defense Symposium held in New Delhi hosted the biggest technical gathering of aerospace and defense engineers and scientists who work on cutting-edge strategic electronics in India.
The symposium theme “‘Focus where it counts” presented Keysight expertise in measurement science and test processes to the India leaders in aerospace and defense and offered greater insight into system readiness. The symposium addresses innovating advanced test systems and solutions that deliver mission critical results using accurate test and measurement tools.
The topics included military communications, electronic warfare and radar systems. Also discussed were emerging test and measurement theories, challenges and recent advances in technology. The open forums at the symposium featured discussions and demonstrations of latest Keysight products and solutions available for aerospace and defense complex system requirements challenges. There was an extensive product fair, showcasing the latest solutions for aerospace and defense applications.
Keynote speaker at the event was the Union Minister of State, Ministry of Defence – Rao Inderjit Singh. He highlighted the importance of developing home bred technologies in the aerospace and defense sector. He also laid emphasis on the central government’s ‘Make in India’ initiative encouraging symposium attendees to build indigenous and customized technologies.
“It gives us great pleasure to organize the ninth edition of Keysight’s Aerospace & Defense Symposium,” said Mr. Sudhir Tangri, country general manager, Keysight Technologies India Pvt. Ltd. “India’s aerospace and defense sectors are undergoing tremendous changes in the recent years with the government focusing on building comprehensive made in India defense systems and launching mission critical aerospace projects. Being a global leader in electronic test and measurement, we intend to play a vital role in assisting in the transformation India’s aerospace and defense sector.”
“To help Keysight customers continue to open new doors, we’re concentrating our effort and experience on what comes next in test and measurement. This conference is a testimony of our efforts. We at Keysight are aiming to bring expertise in measurement science in order to provide our Indian customers more time to focus on other issues.” added Mr. Tangri.
The sessions at the symposium were carefully designed to address the issues and emerging trends in the aerospace and defense test and measurement market. Commencing the keynote address on ”Test and Measurement Trends in Aerospace and Defence market”, the symposium topics also included New Innovations in Measurement Techniques for Spurious and Unknown Signals, Keysight Reference Solutions – Creating the Solution You Need, Simplifying TR module Test Solution and Measure with Confidence and Order with Ease.
There were also dedicated sessions focused on Radar and Electronic Warfare (EW) which consisted of topics such as understanding new Pulse-analysis techniques and designing and verifying advanced radar systems within complex environment scenarios. Within the military communications topic the symposium had sessions on new approaches in field maintenance and flexible test architectures to ensure future test capabilities for evolving tactical and public safety radios.
Launched at the symposium was Keysight India’s quarterly journal – Keysight Technical Insights, a compilation of key industry trend articles covering the challenges as well as the latest developments in the electronic measurement ecosystem. The journal also highlights measurement science and test processes that can be used to equip clients with more time for the bigger issues.
