A system may include a first radio comprising a first radio processor, a first radio modem, and a first radio transmitter configured to transmit non-hopping transmissions and hopping transmissions. The system may further include a second radio comprising a second radio processor, a second radio modem, and a second radio hopping receiver, wherein the second radio hopping receiver is a non-staring second radio receiver. The first radio may be configured to: receive a message and a destination for the message, the destination being the second radio; upon a determination that the destination has a non-staring receiver, store the message; determine a time interval start time for a cyclical hop pattern associated with the second radio; output the message from the memory to the first radio modem; output the message from the first radio modem to the first radio transmitter; and/or transmit the message to the second radio.

Radio having hybrid staring and non-staring architecture

A processing system includes a first processing circuit including a first PLC configured to receive a red signal, a plurality of first processors operated by the first PLC to process the red signal, and a first hypervisor configured to control operation of the first processors. The processing system includes a second processing circuit physically separated from the first processing circuit that includes a second PLC configured to receive a black signal, a plurality of second processors operated by the second PLC to process the black signal, and a second hypervisor configured to control operation of the second processors. The processing system includes a configuration controller configured to identify an operation to be performed by at least one of the first or second processing circuit and cause at least one of the corresponding first hypervisor or second hypervisor to allocate respective first processors or second processors to perform the operation.
