R&S®SECOS 5/16 TDMA
SECURE EPM COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM
The R&S®SECOS 5/16 TDMA waveform is a frequency hopping waveform solution with electronic
protection measures (EPM/ECCM) for VHF/UHF radiocommunications.
In modern defense communications scenarios, radio
communications are extremely vulnerable to intentional
or unintentional eavesdropping, intrusion and jamming.
With an ingenious concept, R&S®SECOS protects com-
munications and thus contributes to securing transmis-
sion. The waveform supports secure and jam-resistant
voice and data communications in single-channel and
TDMA modes. R&S®SECOS supports user-specific encryp-
tion (COMSEC) and customizable frequency hopping
methods (TRANSEC). Embedded management encryp-
tion allows the safe loading and distribution of operational
mission data. The waveform is integrated into almost all R&S®SECOS 5/16 TDMA secures your mission.
