Maintenance checks and signal-in-space analysis on TACAN and DME stations
Key Facts
  • High-precision TX/RX measurements on TACAN and DME systems (in line with ICAO Annex 10, ICAO Doc. 8071, MIL?STD?291C and STANAG 5034)
  • All required measurements with a single instrument
  • High dynamic range (110 dB) and precise peak power measurements
  • Precise, efficient measurement of characteristic TACAN/ DME parameters (main delay < 50 ns, bearing < 0.2°)
  • Detailed, automated time domain analysis
  • Extremely compact with internal battery

Brief Description The R&S®EDST300 TACAN/DME station tester is an analyzer designed for commissioning, testing and servicing pulsed terrestrial navigation systems. Its wide dynamic range and compact design make the R&S®EDST300 ideal especially for wired and field measurements on TACAN and DME ground stations.
