Argon ST Radix's business base is built upon its sole ownership of its intellectual property consisting of several patents, a suite of proprietary algorithms, and the experience and creativity of its technical staff in applying the IP to emerging requirements and opportunities in its core business areas. It is an innovator in the development of advanced signal processing technology, pioneering the application of digital adaptive beamforming and null steering technology in signal reconnaissance, terrestrial communications and GPS based navigation receivers. The company is a recognized industry expert in:

• Blind adaptive beamforming for signal detection and copy through interference using single and multi sensor arrays
• Super resolution radio direction finding and precision geolocation through interference
• Wideband spectrum channelization and multi bin reconstruction
• Spread spectrum signal intercept and exploitation
• Signal classification and identification
  

These areas of expertise not only give Argon ST Radix a competitive advantage, but also give Argon ST Radix a substantial and clear differentiator from its competitors. The company's largest customer is the Department of Defense. Contracts with the DoD provide various elements of the armed forces with advanced signal reconnaissance and GPS receiving systems and technologies. Many of the contracts pursue advanced research and development, applying new signal processing techniques to the constantly changing electromagnetic spectrum in the battlefield. The company licenses some of its IP in the form of software products to commercial customers and agencies within the US Government.
