Aaronia IsoLOG 3D 80 – RF Tracking Array (680MHz to 6GHz)

• Aaronia´s IsoLOG 3D provides cost-effective high performance real-time signals monitoring, direction finding and geolocation for spectrum-critical areas.
• The 3D RF Tracking Antenna includes a high density, customizable antenna array.
• A total of at least 16 and up to 48 tracking-antennas, for horizontal and for vertical polarization, can be integrated.
• Additionally 8 or 16 specialized low frequency antennas can be added to extend the frequency range down to 9kHz.
• In total up to 64 independent antennas can be equipped.

Class-leading accuracy and speed

The antennas and the electronics are protected by an included radom which can be ordered in any color and optional prints (the standard color is black). The room is watertight, shock and heat-proofed to withstand even the hardest conditions.

The perfect solution for counter-surveillance measurements or drone-detection systems (unmanned air vehicles). The wide frequency range eliminates the need for various antenna setups to save space and system costs. This makes it usable for mounting on vehicles (e.g. drive test cars etc.) and for hidden operations. Looking like a satellite dish for camping vans the antenna is not recognized as a tracking antenna.

The IsoLOG 3D is sensitive to the majority of incoming signal polarizations including all linear polarizations, allowing reliable detection of signals including those invisible to most DF systems that use only vertically polarized antennas.

The antenna only needs a Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) connection for easy integration and control over any existing Ethernet network. Powerful control software is included for free, for operation on Windows systems. The control software allows various tracking and selection setups, e.g. sweep all antennas horizontally or/and vertically, switch all in one sector, and a powerful high-speed “chopper mode”. This makes it the right tool to track signals in no time.

• Each IsoLOG 3D is fully self-contained within a robust radome designed for hostile conditions.
• Close coupling of the IsoLOG and antenna modules reduces cable runs and cable losses and significantly improves performance at higher frequencies.
• Various directional antenna options are available from 9kHz to 40GHz.
• Arrays can be networked over large distances as part of a wider monitoring network with other IsoLOG antennas.

The design of the antenna’s mounting plate can be changed on the requirements of the user.

An easy-to-use Remote-Control-Software is included in the shipment and allows control of the Tracking-Array via any Windows PC with Ethernet-Connector. The powerful software allows us to manually switch between each antenna and/or sector (manually RF tracking). The software also includes a programable sector/antenna auto-rotate and an ultra-fast “chopper mode” for real-time isotropic measurements over all antennas/sectors at the same time. The free adjustable switching speed allows even quite slow receivers to be used together with the IsoLOG 3D, but because of the possible high switching speed we recommend the usage of a Real-Time Spectrum Analyzer.

• Auto rotate with adjustable speed and super fast “chopper mode” (“Omni-directional” measurement)
• Fast and easy antenna/sector selection for manually RF tracking
• Switch between all sectors in almost real-time (vertical, horizontal, all)
• Pre-saved and adjustable profiles for specific measurement modes

• The IsoLOG 3D is also used as a part of our Real-Time RF Spectrum-Monitoring-System, a perfect tool for Drone Detection and Tracking.
• It includes a complete “ready to go” package including the IsoLOG 3D antenna, 20GHz real-time analyzer/receiver, powerful outdoor PC or Laptop and a Detection-Software. 
• The software offers an intuitive layout combined with powerful tracking, trigger and display options helping to identify, capture and track any RF signal up to 20GHz.
