Munich, January 27, 2022 - CONATEL, the regulatory authority of Paraguay, has
chosen the
R&S AMS aerial monitoring system from Rohde & Schwarz to efficiently
verify the technical parameters of the ever-increasing number of microwave links
in the country.
R&S AMS is a small, lightweight monitoring payload carried by a commercial
drone. This solution allows easy, economic and effective measurements by flying
inside the main lobe of microwave links that usually run horizontally tens of meters
above the ground and are otherwise very hard to access.
The R&S AMS payload comprises a spectrum analyzer, antenna, control computer,
Wi-Fi unit and battery pack. Having its own battery and data link make the payload
independent from the drone's infrastructure. Weighing less than 4.5 kg, it can quickly
be connected underneath the drone, and can be used with various directional and
omnidirectional antennas for different frequency bands.
"Rohde & Schwarz is proud to provide CONATEL with the microwave link measurement
technology," says Frank Mayer, Vice President Spectrum Monitoring and CUAS, Rohde &
Schwarz. "Rohde & Schwarz has delivered various systems and solutions to the
Paraguayan regulatory authority and maintained a successful partnership over the
decades. The system is usually controlled by two operators, one drone pilot and
one R&S AMS system operator. The system is also able to operate autonomously
and all collected data can be easily transferred to the compatible R&S ARGUS
database."
