R&S^®TMS210 Transportable Monitoring and Direction Finding Systems

Tasks

The Transportable Monitoring and Direction Finding Systems R&S^®TMS110 and R&S^®TMS210 are optimized for mobile use at rapidly changing sites with unknown radio scenarios. They are designed for the following monitoring and DF tasks from 20 MHz to 1300 MHz, with extendable range from 10 kHz (500 kHz for DF) to 3000 MHz:

• Investigations of interference due to co-channel emissions, out-of-channel emissions and intermodulation
• Short-term and long-term monitoring of technical transmitter parameters such as frequency offset, frequency deviation (FM), amplitude modulation depth (AM), phase deviation (PM) and bandwidth
• Field strength measurements
• Identification of unlicensed stations
• Spectrum occupancy measurements

All measurement tasks can be performed either automatically (scheduled) or interactively.

Transport

A portable rack neatly accommodates all the equipment for ease of transportation and provides weather protection when the equipment is taken out of doors. As with other items, such as antennas, no more than two persons are needed to carry the portable rack.

Setup time

Fast on-site setup is ensured because both hardware and software are always ready to use. It is simply a question of setting up the antennas, connecting the cables and switching everything on. Measurements can then be performed for an unlimited period of time.

Power supply

To ensure maximum flexibility and adaptability to all applications and environmental conditions, the systems come with dual power supply:

• 100 V to 240 V AC
• 11 V to 32 V DC

The systems can be powered not only from the AC supply, but also from vehicles or external batteries.

Standardization and modularization

The transportable systems are standardized to provide a cost-effective solution. However, to respond to different user requirements, the systems are also modular.
