Safran DSI - COMTRACK Single Axis Compact Tracking Antenna
COMTRACK stands as the preferred choice for over 100 trusted telemetry tracking operators.
Its track record spans various applications, from military aircraft and helicopters to commercial aircraft and even launch vehicles. COMTRACK steps in where larger, space-consuming parabolic systems may not be the best fit.
With its compact, rugged design, this embedded phased array auto-tracking antenna excels at providing reliable telemetry reception across L, S, or C-bands, covering the entire sky up to 93 miles away. Its intelligent integration combines high-elevation reception with long-range capabilities, all within a protective radome.
Additionally, it enables dual-band installations to support systems operating in both current and future frequency ranges. When it comes to trust, simplicity, and performance, COMTRACK takes the lead.

More Product Information

STAR (EWC15-NG) is a new generation of transceiver for high performance Telemetry, Tracking & Command (TT&C) services. It inherits from the EWC15 products, that have been used in key space missions such as ROSETTA, DEEP IMPACT, PARASOL, MICROSCOPE.

With its small and high ruggedized design, XMA is the best fit for remote data acquisitions in harsh and small space areas.
It is the perfect candidate for network telemetry applications and remote acquisitions, to reduce the wire intrusiveness, and acquire the data closer to the sensors.
XMA also allows data recording, data processing, GPS localization and data transmission. XMA has the smallest size/channel types ratio, and proposes optimized module set for a large number of data type acquisitions, with state-of-the-art accuracy.
A complete set of status and health information of the unit is remotely available for live monitoring and accurate data qualifiers.

The CORTEX RSR-RF (-40 or -200) stands as a digital recorder that plays a vital role in capturing and reproducing the RF analog signal received by the antenna before any processing occurs.
It’s an essential component in a Telemetry Station, ensuring the utmost availability of crucial data, particularly in cases where on-board recording is not feasible.
Data collected in-flight offers extensive post-processing flexibility. You can fine-tune various settings in the receiver, the bit synchronizer, and the decommutator to maximize the extraction of data, a feat achievable only with RF recording. Furthermore, it serves as an invaluable tool for test range qualification ahead of test flights.

The Mission Recorder Cockpit Remote Control Unit is mounted in a cockpit dashboard and connect to a recorder system. The MCRCR shows status information on the NVG compatible display and can remote control the Mission Recorder System.
The ENERTEC™ mission data processing and distribution units are dependable, cost-effective solutions designed to facilitate field and mission data handling, processing, storage, analysis, and distribution. These units are compatible with both manned and unmanned ground, air, and sea vehicles, offering a dependable resource. Each unit undergoes rigorous testing and validation, adhering to industry-standard testing procedures such as DO-160 and MIL-STD-810.
