The PNA-200 has been developed for the inspection, maintenance and commissioning of ILS and VOR. 

SDR technology

SDR or Software Defined Radio basically means that the processing of the radio signals is done mostly digitally by software instead of by analog hardware.

By using digital signal processing, adding new functionalities, new types of NAVAIDs, filters, processing or measurements on the signal is reduced to a matter of adding new software versions to the device.

SLS 3D printing

The casing of the PNA-200 is manufactured using Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) 3D printing technology. Contrary to other 3D printing techniques and materials, this casing is resistant to temperature changes, water and sunlight and chemical abrasion.

This technique allows the manufacturing of robust and resistant parts while maintaining a very low weight.

Batteries

It can fit most 3S LiPo batteries of up to 1350 mAh, which provides up to 1.5h of continuous use.

The battery can quickly be replaced with a fresh one in a few seconds and it only takes 45 minutes to fully recharge a battery.

Interface App

By removing buttons and screen from the device, the weight is reduced drastically, as well as the power consumption.

This also greatly improves the portability and flexibility, as the receiver can be placed at a location while the user visualizes the data and configures the PNA-200 comfortably from a wireless tablet.

The main feature of PNA-200 is that the interface has been developed through an App that runs on an Android OS tablet.

Wi-Fi connection with the PNA-200

The PNA-200 emits a Wi-Fi hotspot to which a tablet can connect with a huge range (more than 300m in open-air).

The tablet runs our CANARD App, which displays real-time data, remotely configures the device and provides access to the timestamped data-logs (.csv) that are stored in the PNA-200.

This connectivity also allows remote the quick update of the receiver SW and App when new versions are available.

User-friendly interface

Because the interface is built like any other mobile App, it is very intuitive and easy to use.

PNA-200 App requires no specific training or courses to operate it.

Besides that, the specific screens are designed to display and control all the useful parameters needed to check, calibrate and diagnose Radio Aids facilities.

Real-time data visualization

Besides keeping a log of the time stamped and geo-referenced (when GPS is connected) data, the PNA-200 provides real-time measurements to the App.

This means that the usercan move around with the tablet and visualize the data because the interface is not wired or embedded in the PNA-200.

This device is specifically designed to be used in ILS and VOR measurements for the ground checks as specified by ICAO in Annex 10 and Doc 8071.
