Cortex RTR

Cortex RTR is Safran Data Systems’ digital telemetry receiver for fixed and mobile flight-test ground stations. The chassis-based system can support up to four receiver channels, allowing a station to scale capacity without changing to a different receiver family. It combines RF reception, signal processing, demodulation, decoding and configurable output formats in one Cortex environment. Operators use an embedded display and graphical interface for setup and monitoring, while field-upgradeable options allow new capabilities to be added as range requirements evolve. Supported frequency bands, modulation types and decoder functions depend on the selected hardware and software configuration.
