Short course (Shrivenham) by Defence Academy of the United Kingdom (DAMOD) · POA · Current
This course will cover aspects of guided weapon (GW) design especially involving the key disciplines of structures, vibrations and aeroelasticity and power supplies.
Guided Weapons - MAA-GW
Short course (Shrivenham) by Defence Academy of the United Kingdom (DAMOD) · POA · Current
This course will introduce you to the ‘missile’ and the system; constituent parts of the missile and how they integrate into the complete system; the threat and how it can be countered.
Signal Processing, Statistics and Analysis
Short course (Shrivenham) by Defence Academy of the United Kingdom (DAMOD) · POA · Current
This short course is a module from the Military Electronic Systems Engineering MSc (MESE) it is also shared by Guided Weapons System (GWS) MSc course. It is delivered by Cranfield University on behalf of the Defence College for Military Capability Integration, Defence Academy. This course provides the analytical tools required to describe the signals found in communications and sensor systems and also the techniques employed in such receivers. This course is a foundation module for anyone who is intent on studying communications, radar and electro-optics systems at masters level.
