Mobile Radio Monitoring and Direction Finding Equipment

Mobile radio monitoring equipment can be permanently or temporarily installed on a vehicle or an aircraft and can perform their functions on the move. Besides, they can be powered from supplies installed on the same vehicle. The mobile radio monitoring equipment has small limitations on size and weight and therefore can perform very effectively. Antenna system dimensions and remote masts with such systems on a high ground can ensure the maximum electromagnetic field coverage. Due to insignificant limitations on size and power consumption, this product line can use multi-channel digital panoramic receivers, ensure high performance in a dynamic range, panoramic analysis rate and bearing data processing. This section describes IRCOS mobile equipment. The equipment can differ in sophistication level, performance figures and price. Their functions and configuration can be modified according to Customer request. This section also describes combined radio monitoring and direction finding systems based on portable and handheld equipment. We can create such systems because we take our standardized equipment for that and use software control packets exchange through TCP/IP protocol via radio channels.

Handheld Radio Monitoring and Direction Finding Equipment

Handheld equipment is purposed for operation when operator is moving. They can be placed on the body (in hands) of the operator. These devices can also be used for automated radio monitoring at temporary or stationary posts. As for the way of applications these units can be classified as universal ones. They can be used for monitoring radio signal source in hard-to-reach areas or in the areas where automatic radio monitoring must be concealed, for example, when state supervision agencies control communications in the streets of the cities or industry centers. Due to significant limitations for consumptions, weight and dimensions the specifications of the equipment are selected based on compromise of possible parameters and power consumed, i.e. operation time with one set of power units without replacement.This section presents handheld equipment produced by IRCOS.

Measuring Equipment

The purpose of measuring radio receivers is to measure parameters of radio electronic equipment, to calculate electromagnetic field coverage to solve EMC problems in radio network planning and thus to enhance data protection.IRCOS offers a number of certified measuring solutions based on their proprietary digital radio receiving equipment. As almost any IRCOS equipment, these solutions can support a lot of applications. Besides measurement, it can handle other tasks e.g. radio monitoring, detection of new signals, etc. With this, most of additional functions require no additional hardware, just a change of software package.

Emergency and Rescue Equipment

The currently available COSPAS-SARSAT system is intended for international search and rescue operations. It can spot coordinates of emergency radio buoys (ERB) to an accuracy of several kilometers. However it is not sufficient when you are short of time. To increase ERB search accuracy and save time, especially when the buoy is on a difficult ground, special equipment is required. This task can be solved by means of IRCOS radio monitoring equipment, e.g. ARC-CSA Automatic Direction Finder and ARC-CSR Manual Direction Finder. ARC-CSA Automatic Direction Finder can control ERB emission and spot the buoy with a high precision either from a vehicle or from an aircraft. ARC-CSR Manual Direction Finder can support the search in close proximity to ERBs and thus solve «the last mile» problems.

Digital Panoramic Radio Receivers, Tuners and Frequency Down-Converters, Test Generators

All basic components of IRCOS hardware-software systems are designed and produced by the company itself. In 1999 the company started manufacturing of proprietary professional digital radio receiving equipment and from that time became one of the leaders in the industry in Russia. Our success is mostly based on our thorough approach to quality in design of analog equipment for signal pre-selection, frequency map setting, output filtering and amplification.Following the system design philosophy applied to the whole range of radio monitoring equipment, our products support basic operating frequency range from 25 to 3000 MHz. This range can be further extended by means of signal frequency tuners.IRCOS designs not only ready solutions but also provides user with opportunity to design its own solutions to solve its unique tasks. According to this strategy the company supplies not only ready-made radio receiving units that executes both analogue and digital signal processing but also radio signal converters that provide for selection and transfer of radio signal to intermediate frequency.This section presents digital radio receivers, tuners, as well as test generators purposed to verify and calibrate direction finders and to test the receiving equipment. Most of them can be delivered separately, though there are some devices that can function only as a part of equipment-software systems.

Equipment for radio signal digital processing, technical analysis and recording

At present the available high quality digital processing of radio signal is the requirement set for modern radio monitoring and direction finding facilities. Digital processing unit is an essential part of modern radio receiving equipment. Its availability provides for flexible usage of radio receiving unit for the tasks being solved. If the task is quite complex for available computational capabilities to solve it in real-time mode, digital representation of the initial data allows to save it for postprocessing. This feature provides for computational capabilities economy.The whole range of IRCOS equipment and software systems for radio monitoring and direction finding is designed based on the unified system approach. The equipment is produced based on modular-assembly principle in order to reach the maximum compliance of the equipment with the Customer requirements. As consequence of the principle is fabrication of signal digital processing modules as separate units.This section presents signal digital processing blocks and modules, digital units for radio signal recording for postprocessing.

Antennas and Antenna Systems

All basic components of IRCOS equipment and software systems are designed and produced by the company itself. In 1999 the company started manufacturing of proprietary professional digital radio receiving equipment and from that time became one of the leaders in the industry in Russia. Besides the company manufactures antenna-fider units, HF and VHF circuits as well as digital and analogue processing equipment based on ARGAMAK series modules, single- and multichannel systems, power supply units. This section presents a number of listed units. Most of them can be delivered separately, though there are some devices that can function only as a part of equipment-software systems..

Note: The antenna calibration factor (K) is measured in dB(1/m) and represents a proportion between E & U, i.e. respectively between the field strength [dB(μV/m)] and the voltage on antenna loaded output [dB(μV)]. E=U+K.

Antenna quieting sensitivity is the minimum level of signal at antenna input with the same signal and noise levels at antenna output (as per GOST 24375-80).
