Product overview
The R&S®EDST300 TACAN/DME station tester is an analyzer built for commissioning, testing and maintaining pulsed ground-based air navigation systems. Its wide dynamic range and compact design make it equally suited to conducted and on-site measurements on TACAN and DME ground stations. The instrument conforms to MIL-STD-291C, STANAG 5034 and ICAO Annex 10, can be remote controlled over LAN, and exports measurement data through a USB data logger. With the internal battery option it works standalone in the field, which makes it a first choice for navigation infrastructure maintenance crews.
Key features
- Conforms to the military and civil standards MIL-STD-291C, STANAG 5034, ICAO Annex 10 and ICAO Doc 8071
- High dynamic range (110 dB) and precise peak power measurements
- Detailed analysis of the TACAN/DME spectrum, pulse shape and station identification code
- Automated pulse shape analysis, measuring rise time, duration and decay time
- High-precision reply delay (≤ 50 ns) and reply delay variation measurement
- Interrogator load test and decoder rejection test
- Adjacent channel measurements and distance measurement out to 400 nautical miles
- Bearing measurement deviation better than 0.2°, for full bearing analysis of TACAN ground stations
- Remote control over the LAN interface, with measurement data exported through the USB data logger
- Compact, rugged design (342 × 157 × 266 mm, 7.2 kg) for stationary and mobile measurement
- Internal lithium-ion battery (option R&S®EDST-B3) for more than 2.5 hours of field operation
- 6.5" TFT colour touch display with 640 × 480 resolution
Typical applications
- Commissioning and routine checks of TACAN/DME ground stations
- Maintenance and service of navigation equipment at airports and military air bases
- Assessment of air navigation signal quality (over-the-air measurement at the signal source)
- Interference analysis of the site environment (adjacent channel and spectrum analysis)
- Conducted and on-site measurement of transmit power, receiver sensitivity and reply efficiency
- Verification testing to military (MIL-STD-291C) and NATO (STANAG 5034) standards
