Speaker: Justin Taylor

Company/ Institute: Aeroflex Test Solutions UK

Event: 11th work meeting

Date: 8 November 2013

Abstract:

The presentation will discuss the equipment and procedures required for spectrum management. Using examples of commercially available equipment it will demonstrate the specifications requirements and methods that would be used when arriving at a new location. From producing a spectrum occupancy plot, to identifying, classifying unknown signals, the presentation will show the required capabilities of the equipment to be used. The presentation will also show how a direction finding system should be integrated to produce a bearing of hostile signals, and how a system could be configured to automatically monitor RF bands of interest.
