One of the meeting’s highlights was the launch of the AI-enabled e-Tarang System, developed in partnership with Bhaskaracharya National Institute for Space Applications and Geo-informatics (BISAG-N). This advanced software promises to revolutionize the planning and management of the Defence Spectrum, ensuring interference-free operation of equipment in both peacetime and wartime. The AI-driven e-Tarang is poised to streamline processes and lay the groundwork for emerging technologies in higher frequency bands.
The Technical News Letter (TNL) 2024 was also unveiled by the Joint Committee on Electronic Warfare Systems (JCES) and HQ IDS. This document encapsulates future technology trends that promise to shape the future of warfare, with valuable contributions from the Army, Navy, and Air Force.
