RX-Eagle Drone – RF Measurements from a Bird’s Eye View

The RX-Eagle drone enables broadband and frequency selective measurement of the RF signal spectrum at predefined points or during manual flight. Thanks to the patented shielding, safe operation is possible at locations with increased field strengths with minimal influence of the drone on the measurement.

Through the high degree of integration of the overall system, measurements can be carried out efficiently by a single person. This is made possible by the software, which covers the entire workflow from preparation to execution to evaluation of the measurement results. The ground station software allows different live views, the creation of automated measurement and flight routines as well as the evaluation of the recorded data.

Typical areas of application for the drone are EMC, EMI, antenna measurement, signal mapping, signal localization, leakage search, inspection and troubleshooting of radio systems.
