Eurosatory 2010: Rohde & Schwarz demonstrated interoperability between radio networks of different forces

In multinational or humanitarian missions, the radio access point establishes interoperability between Rohde & Schwarz radios, or legacy radios, of the partners involved. Networking with TETRA-based PSS radio networks is also possible, for example. Information that is urgently needed by all parties involved to gain a complete picture of the situation – and that would otherwise only be available in fragments – can be exchanged. To achieve this, radio access points are set up at strategically favorable locations in the deployment area. Rohde & Schwarz radios can even be used to set up the radio links by remote control.

A radio access point with two radios as remote stations is on display at Eurosatory. One of the radios is equipped with a camera that is controlled via the radio access point. The pictures from the camera are displayed live on a smart board. The second radio from the R&S M3TR family of tactical software defined radios sets up a connection with a TETRA radio network via the radio access point.
