Rohde & Schwarz is pleased to introduce its transportable monitoring systems for military spectrum monitoring. The company's cutting-edge technology is designed to help armed forces optimize their spectrum management, detect and geolocate emitters, and ensure reliable radio communications. The new transportable systems are compact and weatherproof with toolless installation for rapid deployment to any site for controllable direct or autonomous 24/7 operations in multi-purpose or specialized missions. With high sensitivity, wideband monitoring capability and excellent signal processing performance, the systems can cope with any signal environment.
In deployment areas and theaters of operations, spectrum monitoring increases the reliability of deployed forces' radio links, ultimately contributing to mission success and true spectrum dominance.
This helps operators understand and optimize their frequency spectrum in several keyways. It enables them to see how frequencies are being used, identifying unused "white spaces" for more efficient frequency assignments. Operators can also detect high loads, find available frequencies, and manage capacity more effectively.
Additionally, the solution improves radio coverage by allowing operators to measure actual signal ranges, locate and resolve interference issues, troubleshoot disrupted transmissions, and ultimately ensure reliable communications.
Spectrum monitoring systems from Rohde & Schwarz provide critical capabilities for emissions control (EMCON) and Search & Rescue (SAR) operations. This includes reliable information about EMCON discipline, detection and location of each emission within a defined area, geolocation of emergency calls and rapid deployment of rescue teams, and increased survivability of soldiers in distress.
Rohde & Schwarz has extensive experience in managing spectrum monitoring system integration, providing comprehensive quality management, efficient organizational structure, and project teams with many years of experience in spectrum monitoring technologies. The company offers training programs, lifecycle support, and full lifecycle service to ensure successful operation of its spectrum monitoring systems.
