XPR 100
System description
XPR 100 is a microwave-based solution developed for Dynamic Positioning (DP)
applications in need of long-range relative positioning. It operates in the 9.2 to 9.3 GHz
band. Each light weight sensor panel has an opening angle of 100 degrees.
XPR 100 can be deployed as an omni directional system using several sensor panels. This
will give the system an extended operational area of up to 360°, and avoid blind angles.
The system can be interfaced to remote systems such as Dynamic Positioning. Either
through Ethernet or serial lines. Configuration and operation of the system is done
through the application software.
XPR 100 meets the requirements specified by IMO for DP Class 2 vessels.
The system has automatic target selection, as well as built-in system test and verification.
