MANUFACTURING AND NEW APPLICATIONS
IRCOS is a company that implemented a full process cycle and a certified quality
control system. For our products we took the best of the process engineering
and structure used in the USSR and the RF defense industry. Our company
policy is to ensure the maximum possible sustainability and independence from
external factors. IRCOS JSC is licensed by the RF Industry Agency and can
develop, manufacture and repair defense equipment.
Besides our traditional business i.e. manufacturing of equipment for radio
monitoring IRCOS is also successful in new fields.
In 2002 we started commercial production of radio signal measurement
equipment. We have succeeded in that owing to our quality system, research
capacities and high level of radio receiver manufacturing achieved in our
previous projects. This is a new field not just for our company. In the Russian
market there are just a few domestic manufacturers of such equipment and
the product range is not large by now. Therefore our progress in this business
becomes especially important. In 2008, development of ARGAMAK-IS field
strength meter was completed.
Currently IRCOS manufacture the following instruments and measuring
equipment:

Stationary Radio Monitoring and Direction Finding Equipment
The stationary equipment is fixed equipment. The stationary radio monitoring equipment has the minimum limitations on size and weight and
therefore can ensure the maximum performance in a single process. Antenna system dimensions and remote masts with such systems on a high
ground of buildings can provide the maximum electromagnetic field coverage. Due to insignificant limitations on size and power consumption,
this product line can use multi-channel digital receivers, ensure high performance in a dynamic range, panoramic analysis rate and bearing
data processing. This section describes IRCOS stationary equipment. It includes both indoor radio monitoring systems and automated radio
monitoring/direction finding systems. This section also describes combined radio monitoring and direction finding systems based on stationary
and mobile equipment. We can create such systems because we take our standardized equipment for that and use software control packages
exchange through TCP/IP protocol via radio and wire channels.

Mobile Radio Monitoring and Direction Finding Equipment
Mobile radio monitoring equipment can be permanently or temporarily installed on a vehicle or an aircraft and can perform their functions on the
move. Besides, they can be powered from supplies installed on the same vehicle. The mobile radio monitoring equipment has small limitations on
size and weight and therefore can perform very effectively. Antenna system dimensions and remote masts with such systems on a high ground
can ensure the maximum electromagnetic field coverage. Due to insignificant limitations on size and power consumption, this product line can use
multi-channel digital panoramic receivers, ensure high performance in a dynamic range, panoramic analysis rate and bearing data processing.
This section describes IRCOS mobile equipment. The equipment can differ in sophistication level, performance figures and price. Their functions
and configuration can be modified according to Customer request. This section also describes combined radio monitoring and direction finding
systems based on portable and handheld equipment. We can create such systems because we take our standardized equipment for that and use
software control packets exchange through TCP/IP protocol via radio channels.

Handheld Radio Monitoring and Direction Finding Equipment
Handheld equipment is purposed for operation when operator is moving. They can be placed on the body (in hands) of the operator. These
devices can also be used for automated radio monitoring at temporary or stationary posts. As for the way of applications these units can be
classified as universal ones. They can be used for monitoring radio signal source in hard-to-reach areas or in the areas where automatic radio
monitoring must be concealed, for example, when state supervision agencies control communications in the streets of the cities or industry
centers. Due to significant limitations for consumptions, weight and dimensions the specifications of the equipment are selected based on
compromise of possible parameters and power consumed, i.e. operation time with one set of power units without replacement.
This section presents handheld equipment produced by IRCOS.

Emergency and Rescue Equipment
The currently available COSPAS-SARSAT system is intended for international search and rescue operations. It can spot coordinates of
emergency radio buoys (ERB) to an accuracy of several kilometers. However it is not sufficient when you are short of time. To increase ERB
search accuracy and save time, especially when the buoy is on a difficult ground, special equipment is required.
This task can be solved by means of IRCOS radio monitoring equipment, e.g. ARC-CSA Automatic Direction Finder and ARC-CSR Manual
Direction Finder.
ARC-CSA Automatic Direction Finder can control ERB emission and spot the buoy with a high precision either from a vehicle or from an
aircraft.
ARC-CSR Manual Direction Finder can support the search in close proximity to ERBs and thus solve «the last mile» problems.

Digital Panoramic Radio Receivers, Tuners and Frequency
Down-Converters, Test Generators
All basic components of IRCOS hardware-software systems are designed and produced by the company itself. In 1999 the company started
manufacturing of proprietary professional digital radio receiving equipment and from that time became one of the leaders in the industry in
Russia. Our success is mostly based on our thorough approach to quality in design of analog equipment for signal pre-selection, frequency
map setting, output filtering and amplification.
Following the system design philosophy applied to the whole range of radio monitoring equipment, our products support basic operating frequency
range from 25 to 3000 MHz. This range can be further extended by means of signal frequency tuners.
IRCOS designs not only ready solutions but also provides user with opportunity to design its own solutions to solve its unique tasks. According
to this strategy the company supplies not only ready-made radio receiving units that executes both analogue and digital signal processing but
also radio signal converters that provide for selection and transfer of radio signal to intermediate frequency.
This section presents digital radio receivers, tuners, as well as test generators purposed to verify and calibrate direction finders and to test the
receiving equipment. Most of them can be delivered separately, though there are some devices that can function only as a part of equipmentsoftware systems.

Equipment for radio signal digital processing, technical
analysis and recording
At present the available high quality digital processing of radio signal is the requirement set for modern radio monitoring and direction finding
facilities. Digital processing unit is an essential part of modern radio receiving equipment. Its availability provides for flexible usage of radio
receiving unit for the tasks being solved. If the task is quite complex for available computational capabilities to solve it in real-time mode, digital
representation of the initial data allows to save it for postprocessing. This feature provides for computational capabilities economy.
The whole range of IRCOS equipment and software systems for radio monitoring and direction finding is designed based on the unified system
approach. The equipment is produced based on modular-assembly principle in order to reach the maximum compliance of the equipment with
the Customer requirements. As consequence of the principle is fabrication of signal digital processing modules as separate units.

Software
Most of IRCOS equipment are hardware-software combined systems. Most of calculations are conducted at the hardware level. However, system
control, final data processing and output as required by user are performed by PC via proprietary customized software.
Another feature of IRCOS equipment is multi-tasking supported just by the software, without any additional hardware.
Equipment functions can be grouped as follows: radio signal panoramic analysis and direction finding, radio signal measurement, radio signal
technical analysis, indoor radio monitoring, analysis of stray electromagnetic radiation and cross talks, emitter localization. Each group of
functions is supported by its appropriate software package. For all equipment, the software interface is similar though there can be some
differences subject to equipment.
This section describes the general software packs designed for our catalog equipment.
