  • Orolia Defense & Security Collaborates with U.S. Government to Demonstrate Second Generation Beacon Technology

    Orolia Defense & Security announced today that it has successfully demonstrated Second Generation Beacon Cospas-Sarsat signaling capability with its Personnel Recovery Device over the Cospas-Sarsat network... Orolia Defense & Security Collaborates with U.S. Government to Demonstrate Second Generation Beacon Technology ROCHESTER, NY, October 12, 2021 Personnel Recovery Device to be One of the World’s First Commercially Available with 406 MHz Distress Signaling Capability Orolia Defense & Security announced today at the AUSA Annual Meeting & Exposition being held in Washington, D.C., that it has successfully demonstrated Second Generation Beacon Cospas-Sarsat signaling capability with its Personnel Recovery Device over the Cospas-Sarsat network. Visit Orolia Defense & Security at AUSA 2021 Orolia will be exhibiting in booth No. 1269 today through Oct. 13. Come ask about our new Personnel Recovery Device 406 MHz distress signaling capabilities. In June, Orolia and a variety of U.S. government stakeholders in defense, space and science including the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the Department of Defense, worked together to establish proficiency for meeting and demonstrating the newly adopted Second Generation Cospas-Sarsat specification (406 MHz). The demonstration was conducted simultaneously on multiple continents solidifying the global capabilities of Orolia’s technology and the worldwide coverage provided by the Cospas-Sarsat infrastructure. This demonstration yielded beneficial data to support the qualification of Orolia’s Personnel Recovery Device and helped inform government stakeholders on the readiness of the second generation ground and satellite infrastructure. “Our team was able to develop and demonstrate results in less than eight months with the support of our partners. Orolia’s commitment to knowledge-sharing coupled with decades of combined expertise contributed to this collective success,” stated Michael Stout, director of government programs at Orolia Defense & Security. “With a common goal and shared vision, programs across multiple government agencies can function very effectively at this level. This demonstration emphasizes the value of strong partnerships between federal agencies and the defense industrial base in bringing key technologies to the warfighter.” Not only did the live test event verify Orolia’s successful transmissions from its device, it also confirmed early operational capability on messages received and processed by Continental United States Mission Control Centers.

Home • Products • GPS Jamming & Spoofing Detection • BroadSense BroadSense GPS Jamming and Spoofing Detection Sensor BroadSense PRODUCT | GPS JAMMING & SPOOFING DETECTION Frequencies GPS L1, GPS L2 Antenna Integrated or External Screen Real-time visual data Outputs J/S measurements, Custom NMEA message via USB or UART ANY QUESTIONS? GET QUOTE About BroadSense is a GPS jamming and spoofing detection sensor designed to provide real-time and historical situational awareness data. Utilizing sophisticated GNSS receivers and patented jamming and spoofing detection algorithms, BroadSense can detect when the GPS signal or GPS spectrum is compromised. Applications – UAV Platforms – Dismounted Warfighters – Cell Towers – GPS degraded or denied environments Features – Advanced RF front end (AGC, LNA, etc.) – No RF calibrations required – Low Size, Weight and Power (SWaP) BroadSense detects interference, data anomalies and inconsistencies, GPS simulators, jumps in position and time, and everything in between Algorithms rigorously tested and field-proven for over a decade Regularly updated to conform to new and emerging threats Extremely easy to integrate and operate Protect Proactively An increased number of GPS jamming and spoofing attacks have been reported and documented in recent years. High-quality software-defined radios (SDRs) capable of GPS jamming and spoofing are more affordable than ever. Open-source projects have turned these low-cost SDRs into GPS jammers and spoofers. Without the ability to detect jamming or spoofing, PNT systems can be unreliable due to reporting errors from the GPS receiver. It is more critical now than ever to ensure the necessary precautions are taken to protect these systems.

  • National Engineer Week Spotlight | SafranFederalSystems

    National Engineer Week Spotlight As we celebrate National Engineers Week, we shine a spotlight on the engineers who play a vital role in safeguarding our nation's defense and propelling missions forward. Their dedication to developing reliable systems is indispensable, especially during critical moments. Although we are highlighting two remarkable engineers, we honor all our engineers for their unwavering commitment to our customers and their mission-focused support of our warfighters. It is through their relentless efforts that we bring these systems to life. Meet Rob Compton and Corinne Green, who will share their insights and engineering journeys. Thank you to all our engineers for your incredible contributions! What’s a breakthrough you’ve pursued at SFS, either big or small, that changed the way you think about what’s possible in engineering? I have a background in quantum sensing, which is a field that until recently has been dominated by Ph.D physicists working on table-top laboratory prototypes that are impractical and unfieldable. What has impressed me at Safran is how quickly we’ve been developing a robust, fieldable design for a quantum inertial sensor by leveraging decades of cumulative experience in mechanical, electrical, RF, optical, and systems engineering. In some ways, the quantum mechanics turns out to be the easy part, and it’s the traditional engineering disciplines where fresh innovation, hard work, and skilled engineering talent is very quickly bearing fruit for future game-changing products. When a system evolves or unexpected challenges arise, what helps you stay adaptable and guide the team toward a smart solution? When systems evolve or challenges come up, I stay adaptable by focusing on the fundamentals and maintaining a steady mindset. I’ve worked in environments where direction evolved mid-stream, timelines shifted, or priorities were reshuffled. In those moments, progress depended on moving forward where we could, pausing where it made sense, and staying comfortable with the idea that some work might change as plans matured. Navigating that kind of change required flexibility, communication, and the ability to separate personal attachment from technical direction. To me, adaptability means staying analytical, collaborative, and open to change so that evolving requirements become part of the engineering process rather than a disruption to it. Feeling inspired?
