More Product Information
The CORTEX Best Source Selector (BSS) is the ultimate choice for real-time telemetry source selection. It’s the go-to tool for pinpointing the best Telemetry source among multiple antennas tracking the same airframe across various channels.
The Best Source Selector streamlines the selection process by automatically choosing the top Telemetry stream, even from up to 16 sources or more, using a combination of signal quality metrics and other criteria. With its extensive capabilities in aligning paths and compensating for delays, the CORTEX Best Source Selector ensures optimal source selection, no matter where the antennas are located or what kind of range infrastructure you’re working with.
The VS1510 is a video & data recorder/server packaged in a rugged compact chassis (4.92” x 5.75” x 7.28 ” / 9.9 lb), for recording on a Removable Memory Module (RMM).
Recorded data can be replayed in a standard PC/Windows® environment, using specific or COTS mission debrief solutions for post mission analysis.
In addition, typically for ISR applications, data can be replayed while recording on board. The ENERTEC™ mission data processing and distribution units offer cost-effective and dependable solutions for collecting, processing, storing, utilizing, and sharing field and mission data.
These units are designed for both manned and unmanned ground, air, and sea vehicles. They undergo rigorous validation and formal qualification testing, conforming to established standards such as DO-160 and MIL-STD-810.
Our patented miniaturized L/S/C Tri-Band Feed delivers top-notch performance and unmatched flexibility.
Equipped with a common L/S/C radiating front end, it’s complemented by a modular set of active RF modules, enabling simultaneous reception and tracking across various frequency bands. Its compact, lightweight design allows it to be mounted on any dishes ranging from 6 to 24 feet.
Available in single, dual, or tri-band configurations, this feed offers the best value for customers looking to meet current requirements while staying future-ready.
It’s also field-upgradable to add any missing bands with straightforward RF module additions, ensuring scalability while keeping costs in check.
ARES (formerly IRIS) from Safran Defense & Space, Inc. (formerly Safran Data Systems, Inc.) represents the next-gen in transportable antenna systems. Packed in portable cases for easy handling, ARES can be shipped using standard methods and be fully operational in under an hour in the field, standing by to support satellites. Utilizing a reliable pedestal design and a dual-band concentric feed, ARES antenna ensures pinpoint accuracy and top-notch antenna performance. Crafted from standard (LRU) parts, it’s a breeze to maintain and service on-site, guaranteeing maximum uptime for all satellite missions. Combined with the SATCORE combo box (Command/Control modem & high-rate receiver) and the TM MAESTRO Monitoring & Control software, ARES is the all-in-one portable satellite tracking system.
The highly flexible modular GMDR system is a versatile and future-proof solution for acquisition, recording, dissemination and replay of FTI data in ground station applications.
With its high integration, incomparable range of supported video interfaces and full compatibility with global leading MDR products, the GMDR integrates seamlessly into customers‘ existing test range topologies.
With its intelligent data reduction through segmentation, pre-selection and filtering as well as the capability to freely disseminate subsets of data among several network destinations, GMDR efficiently reduces the operator‘s workload when analyzing test results.
For standard PCM/Ch7-Telemetry applications, two simplified, cost-efficient variants with integrated PCM/Ch7-Telemetry signal boards and one Data Express technology (DE50)- compatible storage media slot are available.
Configuring, managing, and integrating the system are crucial steps for ensuring the success of flight testing and achieving precise telemetry. eZ Software is your go-to solution.
- eZ SetUp software allows to configure from a single acquisition unit to a complete acquisition system within a network architecture.
- eZ Operation software is an advanced tool for centralized supervision and control of complex test systems from an onboard operator station.
- eZ Processing / Advantys software offers advanced functions for data display and processing.
