Those in charge of an operation need to know where people are.TETRA radiosfrom Airbus make it easier because they all contain a positioning module.
The radios can be tracked. For example:
The radio can automatically send its location at certain time intervals.
Control room can ask for the location and the radio can send it. The user does not need to do this.
When the user makes the red emergency call, the radio can automatically include the location information in the call.
Where are you?
'Where are you'lets the radio user take advantage of the location information on the radios.
In short, 'Where are you' becomes the question no-one needs to ask. The user can easily send a 'Where Are You question' to a colleague or team. They can answer by pressing the push-to-talk key.
The user’s radio will now display an arrow that points to the colleague’s direction. He can also see how far the colleague is in that direction.
'Where are you'is only available in TETRA radios from Airbus.
Radios with GNSS positioning
TH1n slim & light radio
TH1n fits in your pocket
The TH1n slimline TETRA radio is small and light-weight. Despite its small size, the TH1n is a big performer. It has all the features and functions you need. It is also IP65 classified, so it can take on rough handling.
Are you looking for a TETRA radio that is safe to use in hazardous environments such as airport fueling, oil plants, gas pipelines and refinery plants?
The THR9 Ex is safe for explosion-prone areas where sparks or overheating could endanger the user’s life. Yet it has a full feature set.
The GNSS module can use any two of these satellite systems at once:
A-GPS
Glonass
BeiDou
Galileo (later possibility with a software update)
The improvements
Faster time-to-fix
Better accuracy in so called urban canyons.
Tall buildings can block a radio’s view to a satellite, and such an area is called an urban canyon. But where the radio may not get line-of-sight to one satellite, another may be in view. The GNSS can use two satellite systems and get more accurate positioning – even in urban canyons.
Radio positioning for tracking the units
Use the TETRA radios to track
field units
vehicles
vessels
containers.
The radio can send its coordinates as an SDS message
at certain time intervals
after a certain distance travelled,
or both,
and if the radio does not have radio coverage, it can save the coordinates and send them when it is back in coverage.
Knowing where your fellow officers are can be vital. They could be quite near, but if you are in a forest or city, they might as well be invisible. In some situation, getting this information quickly can be a matter of life or death.
Your radio can provide automatic positioning between radio users during a call. Right on your radio's display.
