Electromagnetic deconfliction

Overview

Electromagnetic Spectrum (EMS) is widely used for military operations. Competing demands for the radio spectrum means it's strictly coordinated and controlled. Battlespace spectrum management is the planning, coordination and management of EMS to allow military systems to perform their functions without causing or suffering from harmful interference. ATDI's flagship EW planning tool, HTZ Warfare, specialises in electromagnetic deconfliction.

Significant importance is placed on the performance of radio intercept receivers, direction finders and communications jamming equipment. Mission success often relies on the ability to intercept or jam enemy communications. And, to share information with the command structure without undue interference.

HTZ Warfare enables users to exploit spectrum-dependent systems, including communication links, electronic warfare sensors, radio jammers and radar detection. This radio propagation software solution is recognised around the globe by military, government and security organisations.

Product features

ATDI is a leading military network planning and EW modelling specialist. Our flagship radio propagation software, HTZ Warfare supports military units around the globe. This solution enables military units, defence and security agencies to design communication networks, minimise interference, automatically assign frequencies and generate alternative communication plans.

Key product features include:

Communication link analysis - examining links between communication assets and assessing the performance of the link. All simulations are based on proven simulation methods;
Automated functions - to manage repetitive studies and automatically calculate composite coverages and interference analysis;
Moving site locations - ability to move individual sites and analyse communication capabilities virtually instantly;
Assessment of site failures - understand the impact of communication site failures on the network so contingency plans can be included as part of the normal system design process;
Interception and jamming assessment - the ability to identify the risk of interception or jamming by known enemy electronic warfare assets;
On-the-move capabilities - analyse network capabilities for moving elements, such as convoys through hostile territory. Suitable locations for talk-through sites can be easily identified;
Analysis of operating terrain - supported by 3D images of the battlefield which looks at every angle;
Analysis of intercept vulnerabilities - to identify the possible effects of enemy jamming and develop plans to overcome these factors.

Network failure analysis - to analyse and view network changes instantaneously, including the assessment of the effects of network failure or enemy action. Mitigation planning reduces the likelihood of communication failures in the field;
Deployment of intercept receivers - including intercept coverage assessments and gap identification;
Sensor deployment - maximising their efficiency or minimising the assets assigned to a given objective;
Deployment of direction finders - supporting best site searching, DF baseline coverage assessment and communications planning between assets. The system can be integrated with DF systems so that DF hits can be displayed directly on the planner’s screen;
Communication jamming missions - planning offensive missions including asset optimisation, communications planning and assessing the effects of jamming on own communications systems;
Vulnerability checks - to determine the vulnerable points in known enemy communications systems and prioritise targets for attack.
