- VIAVI Solutions Inc. (VIAV, Financial) unveils a second-generation RSR Transcoder for GPS-denied environments.
- Key features include advanced PNT capabilities, ruggedized enclosures, and multiple holdover oscillator options.
- The device will be showcased at the 2025 Joint Navigation Conference in the Greater Cincinnati Area.
VIAVI Solutions Inc. (VIAV) has launched its second-generation RSR Transcoder, designed to ensure operational capabilities in environments where GPS/GNSS signals are compromised. This device addresses the increasing threat of GPS jamming and spoofing in electronic warfare, affecting military operations and critical sectors such as aviation and emergency services.
The new RSR Transcoder offers advanced Position, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) capabilities, including a full GPS constellation simulation and a patented algorithm for converting various assured inputs. Key features of the device include universal GPS L1 and L2 signals output with C/A-code and P-code, ruggedized IP68 enclosures suitable for land, sea, and air platforms, a 100 Hz output rate with ICD-GPS-153 interface, and holdover oscillators available in 4-, 8-, and 24-hour options.
This second-generation transcoder is a strategic addition to VIAVI's portfolio, positioning the company strongly in the expanding assured PNT market. Its cost-effective solution for upgrading legacy systems with modern PNT capabilities is particularly advantageous, given the budget constraints often faced in military upgrades.
The RSR Transcoder will be displayed at the 2025 Joint Navigation Conference from June 2-5 in the Greater Cincinnati Area. This event is jointly hosted by the Departments of Defense and Homeland Security, and VIAVI will be exhibiting at booth #406.
