ANTENNAS
Applied Signal Intelligence (ASI) Ultrawideband, Direction Finding systems provides unparalleled performance with the smallest form factor available in the market.
The CrossCut™ Direction Finding (DF) system is an ultrawide bandwidth, 1-1000 MHz, precision DF system. The system is based on ASI’s recent advances in ultrawideband (UWB) vector-sensor DF technology. These advances enable a much smaller system footprint than traditional DF systems.
System Variations:
- CrossRoads™ – A vehicle mounted variant.
- CrossSeas™ – A waterborne variant.
- CrossWinds™ – An airborne variant.
PLATH SENSOR DIVISION:
A world-class receiver needs a world-class antenna
What use to us is the best receiver or DF receiver when the antenna used would only be average?
Plath have always considered the antenna and the receiver as a single unit and paid particular attention to the fact that the antenna in no way makes compromises on the receiver. During their in-house antenna development, they work hand-in-hand with the receivers‘ developers to create a fully tuned system.
WAVE GUIDES & MICROWAVE COMPONENTS
Working in coax and in waveguide bands from Ka-Band to W-band our supplier Millimeter Wave Systems provide millimetre wave products covering:
- 18-110GHz Up/ Down Frequency Extenders
- Custom Millimetre Wave Module Design
- Converters, Radar, Radiometer, Communications
- Wave Guide AMPS, Multipliers, Convertors, Switches
Multi Function Modules, discrete RF modules that are custom designed for specific applications. Examples include Ka-band phased array modules that include functions like TX/RX mode switching and internal calibration.
MWS also has a wide range of antenna design and test capabilities including:
- Gaussian optic lens antennas

Direct conversion from the antenna or IF processing of signals in your systems architecture.
Example
For 14 years D-TA has been developing open architecture RF capture systems based on the construct that most customers want the data, how they get it, if simplified, is a bonus. So D-TAs solutions are Ether to Ethernet, or RF to digital stream with capability in the middle providing solutions that are Fast, Scalable and Synchronised. Ideal for customers looking to record, capture, playback RF signals in the field or in the lab for test, evaluation, verification of systems or deployed usage.
HIGH PERFORMANCE PROCESSING
Unitronix supply FPGA – GPU – Xeon D – Xeon E processing elements on Open VPX 6U or 3U SOSA aligned. For construction of Series or Parallel back-end heterogenous processing architectures for Spectrum Monitoring, Electronic Warfare, and Digital Beamforming.

RECORDERS
Recording & Playback is a critical part of all RF systems for signature capture, development, test, debug and training of development or field deployed systems.
D-TA for RX – RF/IF RECORDING and PLAYBACK – TX Record/Playback 3 spectral bands simultaneously, process Acoustic, Radio & Radar signals into a common processing site. Ideal for RF Scenario generation for TRAINING and device testing.
