The Multi-Band Tracking Antenna provides long-range tracking of UAVs at ranges of up to 120 miles. Featuring automatic self-calibration for precision pointing accuracy, it can be connected to up to two MPU5 radios for simultaneous dual-band operation, ensuring critical redundancy and resilience against interference.
The design is optimized for MIMO, and can take advantage of all of the MPU5’s MIMO capabilities such as spatial multiplexing, maximal ratio combining, and other diversity transmission/reception techniques. The system also features an RF-only tracking mode designed to maintain tracking and comms in GPS-denied conditions.
The highly portable and rapidly deployable system collapses into multiple, lightweight cases for convenient transport, and can be easily set up by two operators in less than 15 minutes. It is designed to withstand harsh environmental conditions such as wind, rain, snow and extremes of temperature.
