Signals Without Intelligence Is Just Noise

We design and develop products manufactured to exceed mission requirements for our SIGINT and EW customers. Our product design philosophy focuses on excellent mission performance, low SWaP, ease of use, and dependability.

The Wide Band Transcorder (WBT®) is a family of fully self-contained RF capture and playback systems. 

The WBT® is a fully integrated Software Defined Radio Platform (SDRP) that is capable of capturing and replaying signals within the RF spectrum. It is the smallest, lightest, and most efficient recorder and transmitter on the market. Its advanced capabilities allow for real-time or after-action analysis and of signals captured. Capturing and preserving a replica of the RF environment that can be played back into any system with an RF input. 

Key Capabilities: 

• Dual independent tuners 
• Removable media (WBT®-3100 and WBT-3202 only)
• FPGA support (WBT®-3100 and WBT®-3202 only) 
• Internal RF filtering 
• I/Q Spectrum recording up to 100 MHz bandwidth (320 MHz with WBT®-3202)  

Applications:

• RF signal recording & playback
• Signal analysis
• Interference analysis
• Remote spectrum monitoring
• Training
• Receiver test & design
• Spectrum allocation

PlayMaker® is a suite of Electromagnetic Spectrum Operations (EMSO) tools aggregated into a single framework. PlayMaker® is optimized to operate on our WBT platform and is a fully self-contained RF spectrum awareness solution. PlayMaker makes it easy to monitor spectrum activity and rapidly identify RF interference or other systems competing for spectrum usage. 

Key Capabilities: 

• Rapidly scans, detects energy, and identifies signals 
• Identify, and classify numerous analog and digital modulations. 
• Provides user-configurable rulesets to quickly identify signals of interest (SOI) and then alert, stream, record, or process the signal. 
• Records and plays back RF data for post-processing and signals analysis 
• Can be configured pre-mission for unattended operations 
• Can be remotely operated via an IP network
