This ELVA’ blog article focuses on the use of millimeter-wave radars on railroads. Rail applications for radars include speed and range sensors for unmanned self-driving locomotives (also operating within industrial sites), assistance for shunting operations at rail stations, and safety application intended for preventing dead-end train collisions at stations and depots.
ELVA-1E-band marine radar provides improved situational awareness, autonomous or operator response to unexpected obstacles, and reliable performance. Its advanced digital technology is essential to the successful operation of an unmanned vessel and contributes to the overall safety and efficiency of maritime operations.
Read ELVA-1’s article about E-band mm-wave SDM360-76RM Road Monitoring Radar Sensor. It is well-suited system for road monitoring in the United States and Europe due to 10 key advantages it offers over other brands.
ELVA-1 announced SPST-10/FB PIN diode-based, single pole, single throw (SPST) switch with a TTL driver that covers the full WR-10 waveguide band 75 to 110 GHz.
Read ELVA-1’s article about the three weaknesses of 5G connectivity for trains. First, low data download speeds, second, dependence on train speeds, and third, lack of 5G coverage outside of densely populated areas. Low data download speeds are a major weakness of 5G, which is critical for remote video surveillance on trains. That’s why train operators are building dedicated trackside networks in the mm-wave frequency range.
This is ELVA’s video demonstration of high-volume data transmission technology from the vehicle to the operator’s network during a stopover (V2N, vehicle-to-network). The data is transmitted over a 10 gigabit 60 GHz radio channel using 10Gbps MobiBridge radio.
ELVA-1 announced SDM360-76RM, a mm-wave road monitoring radar with all-round (360°) visibility and 200m range. The radar works as a obstacle sensor for detection of road incidents including stopped cars, debris (FOD), collisions, passers-by people, and animals in the highway lanes and hard shoulder.
ELVA-1 unveiled a white paper for a 10 Gbps E-band mesh network based on PPC-10G radio links and Linux-based 10GE edge routers.
ELVA-1’s team published new booklet with E-band Q-band 10 Gbps PPC-10G radio links datasheet.
ELVA-1 has presented 71-76/81-86 GHz E-band 10-40GE wireless mesh network node with Linux 10GE EDGE router
