Advanced Copperfield
The Next Generation Of Finder Hardware
Advanced Copperfield, the next generation of Finder hardware, is a modular ESM/ELINT system designed for use in airborne UAVs and in terrestrial and shipborne monitoring systems. The system detects, tracks, and identifies pulsed RF signals with high precision, and is modular enough to support multiple IF channels within a common hardware infrastructure.
Advanced Copperfield (ATR Chassis).
ADVANCED COPPERFIELD OVERVIEW
Advanced Copperfield, a modular ESM/ELINT system for use in airborne UAVs, ground, and shipborne monitoring systems, detects, tracks, and identifies pulsed RF signals. System modularity allows installation of multiple IF channels in a common hardware infrastructure.
THE NEXT GENERATION OF FINDER HARDWARE
Advanced Copperfield, the next generation of Finder hardware, relies on proven Finder software operating on an embedded Linux based PC, and accommodates remote workstations. It has recently been upgraded to include support for receiving and decoding AIS messages for monitoring shipping traffic. Advanced Copperfield was developed by Aeronix, Inc. under contract to Naval Research Laboratory, and has been fielded in several flight experiments.
I/O AND CONNECTIVITY
The Advanced Copperfield communicates with the outside world via Ethernet (on UAVs, typically through an external CDL or TCDL link). Multiple serial ports and a set of customizable digital I/O signals are also available.
