Aeronautics offers an integrated solution for the management and control of multiple manned and unmanned setups. ARMS Remote Modular Solution is comprised of three basic building blocks that activate different types of remote terminals and sensors, while centralizing data and maintaining high reliability in real-time.
Remote Modular Solutions - Independent Modules
Each of the building blocks is an independent and stable system that interfaces extremely flexibly with each other and with external systems. The combination of these basic components into a complete solution for any specific application can be accomplished with minimal integration time, using existing hardware and software. It can incorporate any number and any type of sensors or vehicles, enabling them to communicate and interact with each other and with central command.
ARMS - Central Command C4I Unit
The command and control station (C4I)can be operated by far fewer personnel that was previously possible, due to the innovative human-machine interface and the introduction of artificial intelligence and processing abilities already engaged at the point of data reception. Generic components make the Aeronautics Remote Modular Solution ultimately adaptable to an endless variety of applications, compatible with existing systems and compliant with any mode of communication.
ARMS - The three building blocks
MAC – Multi-Application Controller
A generic processing unit, MAC enables every component in the system to be connected with every other component. It provides control over the various sensors in the system as well as endowing them with data processing and decision-making abilities. This removes the need for continuous communications between central command & control and the array of sensors, cutting down information overload and allowing operation by fewer operators.
ICOM – Integrated Communications
ICOM provides the control system with advanced communications capabilities allowing for transfer of data at high rates and at unlimited ranges. The ICOM unit supports compression, deployment and data processing. Such features, along with dynamic bandwidth control, enable transmission of voice, images, and data all in real-time. Compatibility with any transmission method and any frequency range makes the remote modular system highly versatile with endless application options.
HMI – Human-Machine Interface
Command centers typically consist of consoles of screens requiring extensive manpower to monitor them all. The interactive HMI allows the operator to open layers of screens with command buttons on the screen’s periphery. Human resources are significantly reduced, while system reliability is greatly enhanced.
C4I - Primary Control Unit of ARMS
The primary control station is the C4I – Command, Control, Communications, Computer, Intelligence Unit, which combines all the sub-systems to provide a Real Time Command and Control station for the entire system. It overviews, organizes, fuses, and manages all the various field components to allow the operator to have complete control. Some of its main features include:
1. Automatic Activation of Pre-Determined Operations
2. Flexible – Configure Different Inputs
3. User Friendly – Windows XP User Interface
