ARGAMAK-VM0

ARGAMAK-VM1

Options

• ARC-PS330 Wideband Frequency Down-Converter (2.4 - 30 GHz) to extend the operating frequency range of ARGAMAK-VM0 External Radio Receiving Units
• ARC-ABS External Wi-Fi Analyzer
• ARC-D11 Two-Channel Portable Radio Monitoring System (model 4 or model 5);
• ARC-RP3M Handheld Direction Finder

ARC-ABS

Features:

• Remote control of the System
• Reliable detection of radio emissions of any origin, achieved due:
  • Time-referenced receipt of a radio signal by all remote units simultaneously
  • High-precision time- and frequency-synchronization of all the units
  • Algorithms of multi-channel analysis of signals
• High sensitivity and wide dynamic range, achieved due:
  • Operation of ARGAMAK-VM0 and ARGAMAK-VM1 External Units
  • Output of signals from remote units in digital form
• High speed of panoramic spectrum analysis, detection of ultrashort signal
• Detection of extraneous emissions within the range of DTV or wideband communication
• High accuracy of localization of radio emission sources, achieved based on:
  • Time-synchronization of all remote units of the System based on reference to the unified time scale
  • Hybrid localization algorithms, which use evaluation of signal amplitude and time of arriving
• Unified user interface, which provides for control of all the modules, automated processing and visualization of operation results, as well as centralized maintenance of database
• Multi-task and multi-user operation mode
• Scalable architecture, which provides for:
  • No limitation for number of remote units
  • Significant increasing of System performance due to organizing distributed computations
• Using Ethernet 1G interface for control and transmission of signals (within the distance of up to 100 m) and/or optic cables (at any distances)
• Option of operation as a part of automated spectrum monitoring systems (ARMADA, AREAL etc.)

System provides:

• Revealing of unauthorized radio emissions and localization of their sources inside protected objects and within neighbor area, including:
  • Noise-like signals with dynamic frequency-time structure
  • Short signal with duration from 1 µs
  • Enemy emissions within the range of digital and analogue TV, broadcasting, mobile communication, data link etc.
  • Wideband radio signals below natural or "man-made" noise
  • 2G/3G/4G/5G subscriber devices
• Recording and technical analysis of radio signals, evaluation of their parameters
• Assessment of hazard degree of revealed radio emission sources
• Analysis of GSM, UMTS, LTE, 5G, CDMA (IS-95, cdma2000, EV-DO), DECT, TETRA, DMR, dPMR, NXDN, APCO P25, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee etc. signal parameters
• Analysis of DVB-T/T2/H, DTMB signals
• Discovery of Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and Zigbee network topology inside monitored premises
• Collecting the information about radio signal parameters in database
• Detection of emissions, which come from monitored objects outdoors (when operated as a part of AREAL-5 System).
• Finding directions to radio-frequency emission sources (when ARC-D11 System with DF antenna systems is available)
• Continuous recording of IQ sampling within the band up to 24 MHz
• Report generation.
