PPM Systems are increasing observational antenna radius by solving signal distribution limitations. 

PPM Systems Enables Increase in Detection Range

Enabling the next step in capability performance across multiple domains, PPM Systems have integrated operationally and commercially proven RF over fiber products together to form complete RF over fiber architecture solutions.

These solutions will be available to explore on stand E04 at the Combined Naval Event, held at Farnborough International Exhibition Centre from 21st–23rd May.

Leveraging the benefits of COTS products and developing them for defense applications, PPM Systems uses extensive domain knowledge to form complete RF over fiber architecture solutions for the maritime ESM (Electronic Support Measures), EW (Electronic Warfare), CEMA (Cyber and Electromagnetic Activities), Counter Unmanned Aerial Systems (C-UAS), and Common Unmanned Surface Vehicle (C-USV) domains.

According to PPM Systems, the industry leading knowledge within the company ensures seamless signal transmission even in demanding maritime and land environments, whilst providing exceptional signal quality and performance alongside antenna positioning freedom. The solutions are, and continue to be, developed in alignment with open standards such as Open VPX, with PPM Systems poised to enable EW capabilities through ruggedised and dynamically reconfigurable signal distribution – a step change in capability for customers.

The Navy Leaders Combined Navy Event will be held at the Farnborough International Exhibition Centre on 21st – 23rd May, where over 1500 attendees will be able to explore these RF over fiber architecture solutions that deliver ‘Any Signal, Anywhere’. Providing an easy post-design integration option with lossless and secure signal transport, these solutions are ideal for routing into SCIF environments, and for cost effective improvement of maritime ESM capabilities.
