Ground Data Link Antenna System is used for the data link applications between an airbone platform and ground station. It has Ku band, C band or S band reflector antenna options together with positioner to point the antenna. Via an Ethernet connection it receives the ECEF coordinates of the airbone platform and positions its antenna to the correct direction. The positioner is mounted on a tripod or a telescopic mast. The system has its own GPS to find its coordinates. It can find the target by directly pointing to GPS coordinates received or by performing a blind scan. When the target is found it tracks it by using GPS coordinates or by using the RSSI of the signal. Even if the link is broken for a few seconds the system continues to track the target by predicting the aircraft location obtained from the previous coordinates.

AIRBORNE DATA LINK
ANTENNA SYSTEM
Two Axis Airborne Data Link Antenna System is used for the data link applications between an airborne platform and ground station. It has Ku band reflector antenna together with two axis pedestal to point the antenna. It can acquire the ground station signal by directly pointing to GPS coordinates or by performing a blind scan. When the link is maintained it tracks the signal by using GPS coordinates or by using the RSSI of the signal. Even if the link is broken for a few seconds the system continues to track the signal direction by predicting the aircraft location obtained from the previous coordinates.
