The HUGIN 2000 from Novator Solutions is a Multichannel Receiver that operates from 2 MHz to 26.5 GHz. It utilizes one or two high-end wideband RF tuners (1024 channels per tuner) and enables users to monitor the wideband spectrum and receive thousands of narrowband channels. This receiver has up to 2048 individually configurable radio channels with a total channel bandwidth of up to 200 MHz. Each channel has individual digital downconverters (DDC) with configurable center frequency, sample rate, gain, filter coefficients, and IQ data stream or demodulation. It supports AM, FM, SSB, and CW demodulation. The combination of the large amount of DDCs with analog demodulation reduces the amount of data to the necessary minimum making it ideal for networked narrowband communication surveillance and spectrum monitoring applications.
The Server Client architecture is optimized for real-time performance which continuously processes and streams individual signals in parallel to multiple remote clients and operators. In parallel, surveillance software can send tasking functions to the receiver to automatically record and analyze hundreds of channels. This cost-effective and flexible solution is built on COTS industry-standard PXI platform from the leading vendor NI. The HUGIN 2000 can be operated independently and supports networked as well as remote operations. Networked operation is ideal when the receiver is placed in remote locations which are difficult to access while remote operation gives a higher level of freedom to have multiple operators monitoring and controlling the signals from various locations.
The HUGIN 2000 has an intuitive API that ensures a smooth integration into existing environments such as SANDRA from Combitech, commercial third-party, or propriety environments. It supports TCP/IP commands for real-time control and configuration.
