Anschütz SST

Solid-state transceivers for marine radars

Marine radars are X-band or S-band radars on ships. They are used to detect other ships and land obstacles and provide bearing and distance for collision avoidance and navigation at sea.

The Anschütz SST Network Radar Transceivers represent a radical departure from technical convention, using solid-state transmitters with a low-power RF architecture.

With the Anschütz SST transceivers, customers experience optimised target detection under all environmental conditions. This is because of its fully digital signal generation and processing, and its flexible, high-fidelity raw radar video distribution to the bridge workstations and our Radar NX or Naval Radar NX applications.

Main
Features

  • Coherent design of the transceiver, gearbox and antenna ensures high reliability
  • Fully digital signal generation and processing, and Gigabit LAN video distribution
  • Raw radar video processing for high flexibility and optimised performance
  • Using LAN instead of coaxial cables and interswitches significantly reduces cabling and provides cost benefits
  • Drastically reduced maintenance (solid-state transmitters, no magnetron) results in reduced life cycle costs
  • Solid-state technology with low peak power, high energy radiation and an adaptive pulse train, allowing optimised energy transmission
  • Multi-user selectable frequencies

Additionally, all transceivers integrate a continuous performance monitoring function. This function automatically measures transceiver performance and provides warnings at an early stage. Extended built-in tests, fault indicators as well as a new, removable tray for the complete electronics help speed up the servicing and exchanging of parts.

Technical data

Leave the conventional path of magnetron-based radar and enter the world of advanced solid-state transceiver technology with the Anschütz SST. Conventional navigation radars use short, high-power (typically 25-30 kW) pulses of microwave energy to detect objects on the sea surface. Solid-state transmitters have a nominal peak output power to the antenna of only 100-200 W and operate at duty ratios of up to a maximum of 10%.

The following variants for Anschütz SST are available:

  • Anschütz SST X-Band radar with 5ft/8ft antenna
  • Anschütz SST S-Band radar with 14ft antenna

The Anschütz SST form a radar system together with Radar NX or Naval Radar NX applications. Our versatile radar applications are extremely powerful in tracking targets and providing a clear and accurate picture of the maritime environment for safe collision avoidance. Functions are available to execute demanding missions.
