Technology Features
EOX fiber optic technology overcomes the shortcomings of conventional schemes such as acoustic, digital, and coaxial transmission line delays, including:
• Quantization Errors
• Triple Transit Time
• Dispersion

Core Technology – Delay Lines
Our Core Technology enables the conversion of microwave signals to optical signals (E/O), time delaying this signal then reconverting the light back to original microwave signal (O/E) with superior fidelity over traditional time de-lay methods. Products include Radar Target Simulation, Radar Altimeter Testing, Channel Simulation (Air Interface) and multi-path creation. Many of our products allow users to test in a laboratory environment, resulting in dramatically lower costs and higher efficiencies than available with outdoor test ranges. Systems are available with fixed or programmable delays ranging from a few nanoseconds (2 feet) to hundreds of microseconds (150 miles), input RF frequencies of up to 40 GHz, internal attenuation control accurately simulates free space propagation loss. All features can be operated from the front panel touchscreen using the intuitive graphical user interface.
