Product Description
The Phobos-R Threat Warner/RESM is an extremely compact, affordable, end-to-end integrated EW sensor
system comprising: Antennas, RF Processing, Digital Processing, De-interleaving & Emitter ID/Library Matching,
and Operator Interface. The system design employs a high degree of RF & digital signal processing integration,
(based on established Teledyne RR017 and QR020 PHOBOS products), enabling the full 2-18GHz frequency
coverage and 360º azimuth coverage to be achieved in a very small and light-weight unit. A key feature of the
Phobos-R is that there are no external RF cables and no positional alignment requirements during set-up, making
it extremely easy to deploy and operate on a wide variety of small platforms of all types, including those not
thought previously feasible for such protection on the grounds of size, weight, power or cost. Only two external
cables are required for system operation; DC power (9vā€“36v) and a network cable for data output/system control.
The system includes options for both WiFi & quad band GSM interfaces, enabling either local or remote location
of the sensor unit relative to the user interface. The sensor system incorporates established waveform based
processing algorithms enabling the creation of a user interface which is both robust in dense signal environments
and requires minimal operator workload or training. Simple to use hand-held ruggedised PDA MMI display & full
ESM MMI running on a ruggedised laptop or conventional displays are also available. MIL-STD 2525 symbology
ensures ease of object recognition. The rapid threat warning response (<1 sec) also facilitates use of the system
in conjunction with self-protection measures such as automatically set-on responsive jammers (ECM / EA) and it
can also be used in conjunction with CESM as a frequency extension for low cost combined EW sensor suites.
