CS <strong>COFDM</strong> Digital <strong>Video</strong> <strong>Products</strong>Cobham Surveillance has introduced a new family of <strong>COFDM</strong>(Coded Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexed) digital videoproducts called SOLO, with domo technology at their core. Theseproducts support narrowb<strong>and</strong> (1.25MHz <strong>and</strong> 2.5MHz) <strong>and</strong> full DVB-Tcompliant (6, 7, or 8MHz) channelisation. This line has specificallybeen developed for worldwide customers in the law enforcement<strong>and</strong> military markets, <strong>and</strong> for the manufacturers of UnmannedGround Vehicles <strong>and</strong> Unmanned Aerial Vehicles who supporttheir missions.Digital technology has made rapid advancements in key areas overthe past few years. Notably the size, weight, power consumption<strong>and</strong> cost have dropped by about 30% per year. Cobham now offersdigital systems that represent good value to users <strong>and</strong> are a betterfit for operational requirements than analogue systems. It alsodevelops specific implementations of <strong>COFDM</strong> technology for thepublic safety <strong>and</strong> military markets.Cobham Surveillance is committed to working with customers ondeveloping products that meet specific needs, <strong>and</strong> invites you todiscuss your requirements with its team.The benefits of digital transmissionThe migration from analogue microwave systems to digitaltransmission offers several key benefits to users:Better Performance - By using digital modulation <strong>and</strong>compression techniques, digital microwave provides superiorperformance in non-line of sight <strong>and</strong> high multipath applications.Unmanned Ground Vehicles operating in buildings or urbanenvironments, as well as low flying Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, willbe able to transmit dramatically clearer video with less break up toremote receive stations. Covert surveillance cameras no longer needto have a clear line of sight to the receive location to have goodpicture quality. Unlike analogue, digital video picture quality is noisefree regardless of distance• Efficient Spectrum Utilisation - Digital video systemsoperate in a fraction of the spectrum utilised by typical analoguetransmitters, offering up to 8 digital video streams in thespectrum previously used to transmit a single analogue channel.Cobham SOLO products support 1.25MHz or 2.5MHz channelsin the narrowb<strong>and</strong> configuration or 6-8MHz channels in the fullDVB-T compliant configuration. This compares to up to 25MHzfor a typical analogue channel. In addition, digital channels canbe located adjacent to each other without a guard interval.Analogue systems tend to bleed over their allotted spectrum,requiring several Megahertz of separation between channels at aminimum.As regulatory agencies worldwide reallocate spectrum, it’s clear thatdigital transmission enables more users to co-locate channels in anincreasingly crowded RF spectrum.• Secure Transmission Using Encryption - Digitaltransmission enables the secure transmission of video by usingAES128 or 256 bit encryption. There is no penalty to the userin terms of performance. Analogue systems don’t offer thiscapability as a feature. Analogue “cut <strong>and</strong> rotate” encryptionmodules are expensive, often doubling the price of a system,<strong>and</strong> not nearly as effective in securing the video data stream. Inaddition, they add to the size of both the transmitter <strong>and</strong> thereceiver. Digital offers true encryption with no additional sizepenalty. In the case of the Cobham receiver, AES encryption canbe carried on over the <strong>IP</strong> network• Set up for Internet Access - Many customers are lookingat how to access their video from anywhere, at any time, overthe internet. Digital transmission makes it easier to send dataover the internet, avoiding the need for a separate analogue-todigitalconversion. Cobham receivers have been designed to offerinternet connectivity by means of an optional TCP/<strong>IP</strong> Ethernetnetwork interface, accessed via a convenient RJ45 connection.SECTION 1 – Technology <strong>and</strong> ApplicationsFor further information please contact: domo.sales@cobham.com 03


SOLO Central Receiver – <strong>COFDM</strong> Digital <strong>Video</strong> <strong>Products</strong>How does SOLO technology work?The basic video source used in Cobham Surveillance products is yourcurrent stock of cameras <strong>and</strong> lenses with a PAL or NTSC output. TheSOLO product range has been designed to make use of many commonconnectors, user interfaces <strong>and</strong> mounting patterns found on youranalogue products, helping to minimise your investment in transitioningto Cobham digital.It’s helpful to think of the transmitter <strong>and</strong> receiver in three distinctsteps:• The first step is the conversion of your analogue camera’s outputto a digital, compressed signal consisting of “1s” <strong>and</strong> “0s”, yourdigital data stream. Cobham has chosen to use the MPEG2 <strong>and</strong>MPEG4 st<strong>and</strong>ard, which is mature <strong>and</strong> well defined• The next step is to optionally encrypt the data using AES, <strong>and</strong>then modulate the data <strong>and</strong> prepare it for RF transmission.<strong>COFDM</strong> utilises significant redundancy, producing excellent resultsin high-multipath environments• The data is duplicated many times during interleaving process.Because of the interleaving <strong>and</strong> redundancy the information ispresented in different carriers or even within different frames.If one carrier is corrupted, it has little impact on video quality,as the data is repeated on another carrier. This provides therobustness in the system. Digital Signal Processing on the receiveside is able to recombine all this data into a single video stream.In the SOLO product range, you have the option of narrowb<strong>and</strong>transmission at 1.25MHz or 2.5MHz channelisation, or wideb<strong>and</strong>transmission, at 6, 7, or 8MHz per channel.In the narrowb<strong>and</strong> configuration, approximately 400 carriers are used,versus about 2000 in the wideb<strong>and</strong> configuration. A major benefit ofusing the 400 carriers, is that fewer carriers give you more power percarrier, which extends the coverage area. 1.25MHz <strong>and</strong> 2.5MHz areinherently lower noise due to a narrower b<strong>and</strong>width. Although fewercarriers are more susceptible to multipath, this is negated by the fulltime spatial maximum ratio combining technology that is used. Thesecond benefit simplifies the RF front end design where phase noise iseasier to manage.In testing, the narrower channelisation is often found to be the bestmode of operation, in particular when transmitters are within closeproximity to each other.04For further information please contact +44 (0)1489 566 750

Fire-ground SolutionFire-groundFire serviceheadquartersSatellite linkPost mountedStryker CameraPost mountedStryker CameraTripod mountedStryker CameraSECTION 1 – Technology <strong>and</strong> ApplicationsComm<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong>Conference vehicle2-5km NLOSPost mountedStryker CameraRapidly deployablevideo cameraCobham Surveillance have partnered with the Avon Fire & RescueService <strong>and</strong> Stryker Communications Ltd to design <strong>and</strong> develop a new critical technologysolution for improved incident management of fires.The Fire-Ground Solution provides vital situational awareness information for comm<strong>and</strong>personnel, reducing the need for firefighters to describe the scene <strong>and</strong> significantly improvinghealth <strong>and</strong> safety. Utilising Cobham’s latest digital ‘non-line of sight’ (NLOS) video transmissiontechnology, the system typically comprises four rapidly deployable video cameras with selfcontainedpower supplies, <strong>and</strong> can be attached to st<strong>and</strong>ard street furniture or mounted ontop of an elevated fire platform.A comm<strong>and</strong> vehicle controls camera functions via a Cobham digital telemetry system, whilstmaking available four camera feeds to the on-scene comm<strong>and</strong>er <strong>and</strong> also distribute thesevia a satellite up-link to the Fire Service Headquarters. In addition the system can work with acombination of rapid deployed PTZ <strong>and</strong> mobile body worn cameras.Features:• Colour, low light <strong>and</strong> thermal cameracompatibility• Improved health <strong>and</strong> safety• More detailed post-incident analysis• Range 2-5km (dependent onenvironment <strong>and</strong> antenna height)• Quad receiver with 4 PTZ cameras• Robust <strong>and</strong> waterproof construction• Cobham Surveillance’s unique ultranarrowb<strong>and</strong> system enabling operationinside licence-exempt frequencies.Underground FireIn some fire-ground scenarios, assessingthe incident is further complicated bythe fact that the fire is underground, in abasement or a tunnel. Because this makesthe operation more dangerous, it is evenmore vital to be able to see live images froma thermal camera within the hazard zone.On-scene comm<strong>and</strong>ers need to be ableto receive clear, stable audio <strong>and</strong> videofrom a body worn transmitter up to threefloors below ground, beaming back to anearby comm<strong>and</strong> location. Each transmittertransmits one video channel, two audiochannels <strong>and</strong> one data channel.Cobham Surveillance’s implementation ofthe <strong>COFDM</strong> st<strong>and</strong>ard is highly resistant tointerference <strong>and</strong> reflection <strong>and</strong> uses a verynarrow b<strong>and</strong>width (1.25MHz) to transmitthe images. The narrower the b<strong>and</strong>width,the greater the transmission range <strong>and</strong>penetration ability to reach surface receiversfrom underground locations.The system can work with a combinationof rapid deployed PTZ, thermal <strong>and</strong>mobile body worn cameras, feeding backLocal comm<strong>and</strong>500m NLOSvia a Cobham digital telemetry system.All camera feeds go to the same bank ofdisplays/recorders in the comm<strong>and</strong> vehiclewhere they are available to the on-scenecomm<strong>and</strong>er <strong>and</strong> can be distributed viaa satellite up-link to the fire servicesheadquarters.The Underground Fire Solution has beentested by Avon Fire <strong>and</strong> Rescue within theUK’s longest underground rail tunnel.<strong>Video</strong> was successfully transmitted fromoutside the River Severn tunnel entrance500m NLOSWirelessrepeaterThermal imagertransmitterin Wales to a receiver located outside theentrance on the Engl<strong>and</strong> side - a non-line ofsight distance of 7km, through a tunnel withmany curves <strong>and</strong> differences in elevation.In a typical fire service operation, the videotransmitter would be located within thetunnel, at the incident, <strong>and</strong> would transmit toa comm<strong>and</strong> vehicle located outside.For further information please contact: domo.sales@cobham.com 13

<strong>COFDM</strong> <strong>IP</strong> MeshCamera <strong>and</strong> nodeHelicopter with camera <strong>and</strong> nodeSECTION 4 – <strong>IP</strong> <strong>and</strong> Mesh <strong>Products</strong>Monitoring nodeMonitoring nodeH.Q.50kmData can be exchanged between moving nodes ina point-to-point or point-to-multipoint.Helicopter<strong>COFDM</strong> <strong>IP</strong> Mesh radios are the latest innovations in the exp<strong>and</strong>ingrange of Cobham Surveillance solutions with domo technology attheir core.Up to 8 of the radios can be combined into a ground-breaking <strong>IP</strong>mesh network - Cobham’s first fluid, self-forming, self-healing mesh.Offering genuine non-line of sight coverage (<strong>COFDM</strong>), the system istruly mobile <strong>and</strong> therefore supplies a network with extended range- one which will deliver in environments too tough for other radiosolutions to cope with.Wireless networks no longer need to be static. Unlike other wirelessoptions, the <strong>COFDM</strong> <strong>IP</strong> Mesh constantly readjusts itself as nodesmove, working out which are in range <strong>and</strong> finding the best route tosend data between them. When one node can no longer operate, therest of the nodes can still communicate with each other - directly orthrough one or more intermediate nodes.The highly flexible mesh topology means that data can be exchangedbetween moving nodes in a point to point or point to multipointfashion, <strong>and</strong> range can be extended by using nodes as repeaters.With a <strong>COFDM</strong> <strong>IP</strong> Mesh system, any shape of mesh network can bebuilt:• A chain network: Ideal for range extension, each node isplaced at the outer range limit of the node before. These thenchain together to feed information back. This network can bemaintained whilst mobile, with a linear chain of vehicles eachacting as a node, <strong>and</strong> the central vehicle acting as a bi-directionalrelay point.• A star network: Good for urban coverage, a central node issituated at a high point to act as a relay <strong>and</strong> all other nodesfeed information back via that one, enabling bi-directionalcommunications.• A r<strong>and</strong>om network: Evolves organically to any shape.• A combined network: Any of the above shapes can be linked- if they are operating at different frequencies, they can becombined at the <strong>IP</strong> layer.<strong>COFDM</strong> <strong>IP</strong> Mesh from Cobham offers true networked integration ofvideo, audio <strong>and</strong> GPS, with seamless transfer of MPEG4 video evenwhen the mesh is reconfiguring to a different shape.The robust, self-healing mesh architecture makes the product idealfor use in mobile surveillance applications, comm<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> control, oradvanced robotics.For further information please contact: domo.sales@cobham.com 29

The entire mesh occupiesjust 2.5MHz (3 <strong>and</strong> 3.5MHz also available) of b<strong>and</strong>width. Farnarrower than WiFi or WiMax b<strong>and</strong>width, this gives less noisein the channel, better sensitivity <strong>and</strong> increased spectrum formore users. Utilising proprietary domo narrowb<strong>and</strong> videocompression technology, very high quality video can betransmitted over the mesh network.Custom-designed for the security <strong>and</strong> military markets, the <strong>IP</strong>Mesh radios employ the unique Cobham <strong>COFDM</strong> modulationscheme <strong>and</strong> therefore have excellent RF penetration <strong>and</strong>performance in the presence of multipath. An <strong>IP</strong> data rate of upto 3.5Mb/s is possible (data rate depends on mode, number ofnodes, <strong>and</strong> range between nodes), <strong>and</strong> this can be symmetricto match network requirements. Diversity gives protectionagainst fading, <strong>and</strong> there are built-in guard intervals <strong>and</strong> errorcorrection.Security of the entire mesh network can be ensured by the useof the optional AES128 or AES256 encryption. Control of thewhole deployed mesh is achieved using a comprehensive webbrowser application with a built-in user-loaded mapping facility<strong>and</strong> PTZ controls.The <strong>COFDM</strong> <strong>IP</strong> Mesh solution is supplied in a ruggedweatherproof chassis <strong>and</strong> is available in a long range 1Wversion.

Netstream <strong>IP</strong> SolutionsUrban Surveillance Mobile <strong>and</strong> Fixed InfrastructureIntroduction to Cobham Surveillance NET-<strong>IP</strong> productsCobham Surveillance has designed a range of products with domo technology at their core (under the common name of NET-<strong>IP</strong>) that allow thesecure transmission of video data across <strong>IP</strong> networks. Distribution of high quality video data across real-world <strong>IP</strong> networks is non-trivial, becausetypically networks are restricted in terms of capacity <strong>and</strong> may contain security features that prevent such transmissions. The following briefguide is aimed at helping customers underst<strong>and</strong> these issues <strong>and</strong> select appropriate products. For more detailed information, contact CobhamSurveillance, <strong>and</strong> a training course can be arranged.What is Streaming <strong>Video</strong>?The transmission of compressed video across an <strong>IP</strong> network is oftenknown as ‘streaming’ video <strong>and</strong> can vary from full frame rate highquality to reduced resolution low quality (often called ‘thumbnails’).Streaming video connections can be point-to-point, going fromone source to one receiver (uni-cast) or from one source to multiplereceivers (multi-cast).Private Networks v Public Networks<strong>IP</strong> Networks can be either private networks, operated by a singleorganisation (usually described as Private LANs or WANs - Local Area orWide Area Networks), or public networks, where the capacity is sharedbetween many users (the internet or 3G networks are typical of publicnetworks).In a private network such as those operated by many police <strong>and</strong>security customers, the capacity available on the network is typically 10to 100Mb/s <strong>and</strong> the network is rarely operated close to this capacity.In a public network the capacity is usually purchased by the user ona ‘pay per use’ scheme, <strong>and</strong> the capacity is typically very limited <strong>and</strong>is contended in nature. The capacity on contended networks is bothlimited <strong>and</strong> variable. Normally, 200kb/s is available on average, but thismight vary at times from 0kb/s to 500kb/s. This limited, but variable,capacity makes streaming video of any quality very difficult.Uni-cast v Multi-castPrivate networks will often allow multi-casttransmissions, but this may require intervention of the networkcontroller to configure routers <strong>and</strong> switches to allow multi-cast videostreaming. Public networks, on the other h<strong>and</strong>, rarely allow multi-casttransmissions.Cobham Surveillance Net-<strong>IP</strong> <strong>Products</strong>Cobham Surveillance produces two types of <strong>IP</strong> products - <strong>IP</strong> videostreamers <strong>and</strong> <strong>IP</strong> video receivers.Net-<strong>IP</strong> <strong>Products</strong>Cobham Surveillance NET-<strong>IP</strong> video streamersThe Netstream video streaming device is suitable for private networksonly, whilst Net-Link is suitable for public <strong>and</strong> private networks alike.NetstreamThis can be installed as an option to some Cobham receivers, includingthe SOLO4 receiver, the Central Receiver <strong>and</strong> the Downlink Receiver.In some receivers this is a software option, in others it requires theinstallation of dedicated hardware - contact Cobham for details. TheNetstream option allows receivers to stream multi-cast high qualityvideo onto <strong>IP</strong> networks. Because of high capacity <strong>and</strong> the multi-castnature of the transmission, the Netstream option will only work onprivate networks. Typically, it requires 1.2 to 4.8Mb/s of capacity pervideo service streamed (depends on user RF transmission parameters).Netstream is most often used as a mechanism for connecting a remoteRF reception point (mast or tower) to the user control centre (e.g.police station) via a private LAN network. The Netstream product addsvery little delay to the RF video, maintains the selected AES security<strong>and</strong> causes no loss of quality.Net-LinkCobham Net-Link is a st<strong>and</strong>-alone boxed product that can connectto Cobham receivers <strong>and</strong> enables streaming video on to public orprivate networks. When connected to private networks, the Net-Linkgenerates a high quality multi-cast video stream. When connected toa public network, it produces a reduced frame rate thumbnail streamat a data rate matching that available on the network.Cobham Surveillance <strong>IP</strong> receiversThere are two main types of <strong>IP</strong> receiver products in Cobham’s range:the PC based software <strong>IP</strong> receivers (also called ‘players’); <strong>and</strong> hardwarebased <strong>IP</strong> receivers.32For further information please contact +44 (0)1489 566 750


Software playersWe have two types of PC based software receivers - NETSWDR <strong>and</strong>NETEPLAY. The first is a st<strong>and</strong>ard PC decoder that presents video in awindow on the PC. It can be used with multi-service streams <strong>and</strong> hasbuilt in AES decryption for secure operation. The NETSWDR also hasa basic option for recoding <strong>and</strong> playing from file. The NETEPLAY isthe software decoder <strong>and</strong> control application that accompanies theNet-Link <strong>IP</strong> Streamer described above. The NETEPLAY can be used todecode <strong>and</strong> play streams in a window on the PC - playing from filesof decoded live <strong>and</strong> full frame rate streams, as well as thumbnails.The NETEPLAY software incorporates sophisticated tools for triggeranalysis, programming remote recording events, file transfer <strong>and</strong> evenremote PTZ.Hardware receiverFor those who do not wish to view the <strong>IP</strong> stream on a PC platform, butinstead want to view the video on a traditional video monitor, CobhamSurveillance produces the NET<strong>IP</strong>HW hardware decoder (<strong>and</strong> theNET<strong>IP</strong>HW2 additional 2 channel version). This 19” rack device willdecode video <strong>and</strong> audio streams back to composite PAL or NTSC forviewing on traditional video monitors. More detail on NET<strong>IP</strong>HW can befound opposite.Note: it cannot be used with Net-Link.<strong>IP</strong> <strong>Products</strong><strong>IP</strong> Hardware DecoderThe <strong>IP</strong> Hardware Decoder from Cobham Surveillance is a professionaldigital video decoder designed to receive multicast audio/videostreams from Ethernet networks <strong>and</strong> output decoded video incomposite <strong>and</strong> S-<strong>Video</strong> formats, as well as stereo audio. The <strong>IP</strong>decoder is designed to be used with Netstream <strong>and</strong> other Cobhamstreaming video products, such as the CRX Central Receiver.The NET<strong>IP</strong>HW2 incorporates two decoders in one chassis, whilst theNET<strong>IP</strong>HW incorporates one decoder in one chassis.
