Product description

Controlled by the SignalShark Real-Time Analyzer the ADFA supports full
automatic direction finding. While the ADFA translates signals from several
antenna elements into a single-channel DF signal the SignalShark automat-
ically calculates bearings from the single-channel DF signals.
SignalShark offers the following options for result output:
• The results can be displayed as bearings as well as omnidirectional level
and spectral values.
• Calculation of a statistical distribution of bearing lines for a localization of
the transmitter with a heat map.
The ADFA can be used with a tripod, can be mounted on an antenna mast
or can be attached to a vehicle roof via a magnetic mount adapter.
