Field CNS Test Equipment

SKYRF® – Generator

The SkyRF Generator offers advanced capabilities for complex scenario generation in both IFF and Primary Surveillance Radar (PSR) domains. It is a specialized configuration of SkyRF®, the widely adopted RPAS-based solution for CNS (Communication, Navigation, and Surveillance) measurements. By enabling target
generation and scenario simulation at altitude, the SkyRF Generator introduces more efficient and flexible methods for IFF system certification, sensor alignment, and Combat Management System testing—reducing the need for costly and logistically demanding ground-based setups.

SkyRF® Drone Based CNS Measurements

Intersoft Electronics and Skyguide have developed SkyRF®, the drone-based CNS measurement service that addresses the challenges of CNS performance analysis and certification. SkyRF® can measure CNS system parameters in a single 10-minute flight, and can even combine the measurement of different CNS, e.g. ILS and DME. Traditional test flights cannot compete with the repeatability of SkyRF®’s pre-programmed trajectories. The drone complements existing ground measurements by reducing ground clutter as it flies at altitude.

ATC Surveillance System Testing using Radar Environment Simulator

Are you ready to elevate your radar testing capabilities? Rewatch our webinar on the Radar Environment Simulator (RES), a cutting-edge solution designed to overcome the challenges of testing Secondary Surveillance Radar (SSR).

This session is tailored for professionals in air navigation service providers (ANSPs) who are looking to enhance their testing processes and ensure the highest standards of safety and performance.

RASS® Product Catalogue

The Intersoft Electronics RASS® portfolio includes a wide range of instruments, tools and services to assist radar technicians and engineers in the complete quality assessment of Communication, Surveillance and Navigation systems. This portfolio ranges from basic equipment for daily maintenance, to specialized tools for a complete picture of the entire radar chain, to realtime display and monitoring tools.

RES® – Radar Environment Simulator

The RES® simulates up to 2048 independent SSR or Mode S targets, ADS-B, FRUIT, reflectors and antenna behavior on RF level. All the signals that would occur in real life situations are injected into the radar, hereby replying correctly to the radar’s interrogations as real transponders would do. A known reference scenario is presented to the radar and compared to the radar output testing the full data link capabilities and system performance limits.

Intersoft Electronics Unveils Major Update to Flagship Radar Environment Simulator (RES®)

Intersoft Electronics is proud to announce the release of a major update to its flagship Radar Environment Simulator (RES®), a cornerstone of the RASS® portfolio of test equipment for radar and other CNS systems. With over two decades of market presence, the RES® has established itself as the reference standard for manufacturers, Air Navigation Service Providers (ANSPs), and Air Forces worldwide, pushing the limits of (M)SSR, IFF system testing.

Radar & NavAids Drone Measurements using SkyRF®

CNS Drone SkyRF

SkyRF® is the drone platform delivering radio frequency (RF) measurement services for performance analysis on Communication, Navigation and Surveillance (CNS) systems. The dedicated equipment onboard SkyRF® and the software platform were specifically built for measuring CNS performance in the field. Measuring and analyzing signals at elevation was never before so easy, accurate and reliable. SkyRF® complements ground measurements and reduces the need for flight checks by up to 50%.
