The PFSL-3000 system employs an integrated GPS receiver to display and store geographical co-ordinates of the measured signal.
The logged data include time, date, latitude, longtitude and altitude.
The signal level can be measured in µV, dBm or S-units, and field strength can be displayed in µV/m or dBµV/m. Instantaneous,
peak or average values can be shown, calculated over user-definable intervals.
The contents of the logs have a flexible format, defined by the user, making the data easy to import into popular GIS
packages for further processing. A provision also exists to specify the antenna factor
of calibrated antennas for various frequencies, to achieve accurate measurements of field strength.
This system is enclosed in a ruggedized easily transported
enclosure, which contains the control computer, the receiver and rechargeable
battery all of which can be powered from a vehicle's 12V DC power outlet or
from mains power. Leads to connect to mains and the vehicle power outlet
are included. The enclosure features dual fans for cooling and built-in
fuses protect system components. The GPS, radio receiver and power connectors
are conveniently located in a recess on the side of the enclosure and can
be accessed with the lid closed.
An integrated LED display shows the built-in battery's power reserve at the
press of a button.
These systems are currently in use by major emergency service providers, communications
providers and testing authorities world wide.
Receivers
WiNRADiO 3000-Series receivers are at the heart of the PFSL-3000 systems,
making it possible to achieve the necessary high level of integration. The receivers are designed to operate in the harsh electromagnetic environment existing inside a computer-based system. |
