Optical Delay Line / RF over Fiber Applications

The ODL product are suitable for applications in the fields of Radar Systems development (development, calibration and testing), Electronic Warfare and Telecom/RF applications:

 

Radar Calibration

Electronic Warfare
    • Simulated Round trip signal of specific delay
    • Signal processing
    • Phased antenna array
    • Phase Noise Testing
    • RF Jamming 
    • Towed Decoys using for anti missiles counter measurement systems

RF / Radar Operation

Antenna / Receiver Separation
    • Multipath Correction
    • Clutter Cancellation
    • Serve remote locations
    • Consolidate & simplify operations
    • Back-up redundant facilities
    • Possible because of fiber’s low RF loss
    • 1/10 weight of coax, 1/25 of waveguide
      • Important on ships, aircraft & towers
      • Easy installation – flexible & thin
      • Lends itself to redundancy & cable routing diversity

EMI Immunity & Security

    Communications

    • EMI, EMP, & ground loop “hum” elimination
    • Simple cable routing because no cable cross-talk
    • Lightning protection
    • Military TEMPEST protection because fiber cannot be tapped
    • Cellular networks
    • Military communications
    • Control systems
    • Beacons and navigations
    • Satellite communications
