ELINT/ESM Pulse Analysers
Marlborough Communications Limited is able to offer a number of VME based ELINT/ESM Pulse Analyser Systems in either rack-mount or ATR configurations.
VME Based Pulse Analyser
Combined with a full featured Java/network friendly, graphical user interface, the system provides an excellent visualisation and statistical display of collected emitter intercept data. It uses a mixture of analogue hardware, high-speed digitisers and FPGA/DSP based processing.
Outline Specification
- Accepts 160 MHz and 1 GHz IF inputs (optional 2 GHz BW tuner)
- Provides de-interleaved 160 bit pulse descriptor word (PDW)
- Mixed analogue hardware, high speed digitisers and advanced DSP
- Available as a VME card set, or complete self-contained analyser in a VME enclosure
- Windows NT/2000/XP acquisition, collection and analysis operator screens
- Automated and very comprehensive manual modes
- Performs intrapulse measurements, generates intrapulse descriptor words (IDW's)
- 1 million on-board PDW storage
- Processes up to 3 million pulses per second
- AMOP, FMOP and PMOP flags
- Continuous RTR (PRI vs time) displays
- Precision graphic analysis, visualisation, and statistical data displays
- Optional interface for NAV/GPS inputs
- 1, 10, 25, 75, 500 and 2000 MHz bandwidths
