If you’re designing an RF-over-IP system today and ignoring VITA 49.2, you’re building technical debt. If you’re already using it — you know why you’re not going back.
VITA 49.2 adoption has been slower than it deserves — partly because implementing the full spec is hard , partly because “just send samples” still works in a lab. But as RF systems go distributed (think: spectrum monitoring networks, massive MIMO, satellite ground stations), VITA 49.2 stops being optional and starts being the only sane choice. vita 49.2
VITA 49.2 Isn’t Just an Upgrade — It’s a New Language for RF Over IP If you’re designing an RF-over-IP system today and
