2023: The beginning of tests of the meteorological and ice monitoring complex
The Roselectronics holding of Rostec State Corporation has begun testing a prototype of a complex for monitoring the meteorological and ice situation. It will allow you to receive detailed weather information for any requested area of the area, as well as provide data on sea vessels in the Arctic in the absence of land communication. It is planned to complete the tests in the summer of 2024. Roselectronics announced this on December 13, 2023.
The development of a multifunctional complex for receiving, processing and relaying space hydrometeorological information is carried out by the Television Research Institute, which is part of Roselectronics. The system can be supplied in land and sea design, capable of operating in extreme conditions of arctic regions at ambient temperature up to -60 ° C and wind speed up to 50 m/s. The complex receives and processes information on the type and degree of cloudiness, precipitation intensity, surface temperature. The received data is displayed on the workstation monitor.
The equipment provides combined reception of information from satellites remote sensing Lands of one antenna in two frequency bands at once: centimeter and decimeter. This eliminates the need for constructions separate stations and reduces maintenance costs for additional equipment.
The engineering solutions used in the creation of the complex will provide work not only with existing, but also with promising meteorological satellites. A request for meteorological information is possible not only within the region, but also by the coordinates of a separate area, which increases the accuracy of data in a difficult climatic situation. A prototype of the complex, mounted on the territory of the institute, has already begun tests, which we plan to complete in mid-2024, after which we will be ready to start deliveries, - said Alexey Nikitin, General Director of the Television Research Institute. |
