RANGER COFDM TRANSMISSION

The Ranger is an exceptionally stable transmission platform in high multipath environments, offering high quality low latency video images in conditions where traditional analogue methods fail. The Ranger is suitable for body worn, mobile and temporary operations, due to its low current consumption; allowing efficient battery operation.


Ranger COFDM Transmission APPLICATIONS:
  • Rapid deployment camera systems
  • Security installations
  • Military applications
  • Transport applications
  • Commercial & Industrial applications
  • Covert CCTV monitoring
  • Temporary installations
  • 'Last mile haul' - (camera to monitoring/network)





FEATURES:
  • High quality digital video
  • Non-line of sight transmission capability
  • Robust noise free transmission
  • Greater transmission distances
  • Encrypted secure transmission
  • Available in 1.3GHz, 2.4GHz and 5.8GHz bands
  • Stero audio channels
  • Multiple cameras within a single frequency
  • Real time transmission (low latency)
  • Compatible with industry standards
  • Small compact modular enclosures
  • Simple to implement
  • Portable or static installations
  • Low power consumption
  • PAL and NTSC options
  • Cost effective

COFDM is a form of modulation that is particularly well suited to the needs of surveillance teams. Video signals transmitted using the old analogue technique were prone or susceptible to echoes and ghost imaging because the signal would ‘arrive’ at the receiver at slightly different times - the signal would bounce around off the buildings and/or landscape, these multiple signals would thenprduce a ghost or echoed image. Video signals transmitted via COFDM completely address the ‘multi-path’ issue; the timing is such that the received signal is reconstructed back to its original form from the various multiple paths thus removing any echo or ghosting.

Using a diversity receiver increases the stability and reception of the video link. Diversity can be increased to utilise four antennas in 'cell site' installations. We supply the system with a choice of frequencies to suit all operational environments. Secure transmission is achieved using the latest 128 bit AES encryption algorithms as standard across the range.
