SAES presented in MAST EurAsia 2014 its most recent study on underwater magnetic & electric measurement analysis.

The study, entitled “Main characteristics of the MIRS measured electric and magnetic underwater radiations emitted by cruise ships in the Mediterranean Sea”, is based on data collected during a period of 4 months with the SAES’ manufactured last generation Multi-influence Range System (MIRS), which configures as one of the most advanced equipment in its class.

Multi-influence range systemNowadays there exists an increasing concern in the international community on the effects on the marine life of the acoustics and non-acoustic underwater radiations, as reflected in the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) of the European Union (EU). Additionally, there is in this field an important lack of information on the characteristics of non-acoustic radiations from specific types of vessels.

In order to contribute to mitigate this lack of information, SAES is developing a series of studies on the radiation generated by vessels, and specifically their magnetic and electric emissions, since their impact is much less known than this produced by acoustic radiations. First results of the studies, centered in cruise ships measurements, will be explained in depth in the MAST EurAsia 2014 Conference, on Wednesday 21st May at 8:30 hrs (Session 5C).

SAES has analyzed the underwater electric and magnetic fields generated by a type of vessels increasingly present in the seas and oceans: the cruise ships. These analyses are based on the data captured by the SAES’ manufactured Multi-Influence Range System (MIRS), deployed during a period of several months in the area of Cartagena to evaluate if the measured levels could impact in marine fauna in the area, following guidelines of the MSFD.

The ROASW system developed by SAES sparked interest among participants UNVEX’14.

This Thursday ended the third conference on unmanned vehicles UNVEX’14. SAES was witness the favorable response that the solutions for new ASW missions offered by industry are receiving, in which the participation of unmanned vehicles has an increasing role.

SEDEF visita stand de SAESIn this context, the Remote Operation ASW (ROASW) system, developed by SAES, has been recognized as a system at the forefront of the market in Antisubmarine Warfare, since allow exchanging tactical and intelligence information between forces deployed in the ASW mission, collaborating in a Network Centric Warfare (NCW).

SAES has participated actively in UNVEX’14 with a stand and offering a conference about ROASW system, receiving from leading agents in the sector, the Government and the Armed Forces, highlighting the stay of Pedro Argüelles, Secretary of State for Defence, which underlined the growing role that Spanish companies have in the development of advanced technology in the industry praising creativity as a key to the competitiveness of companies.

SAES has established contacts with several important manufacturers of UAVs that have passed through the stand, offering cooperation to increase the value of their UAV models by adding the ROASW system.SAES ofreciendo conferencia en UNVEX'14.

The ROASW airborne segment (ROASW-AS) can be installed on unmanned or manned aerial vehicles being remotely operated from the ROASW surface segment (ROASW-SS), which is installed on surface platforms (either on a ship or a ground station).

As already mentioned, the ROASW system can work in a Network Centric Warfare (NCW) exchanging tactical and intelligence information between forces deployed in the ASW mission (Ship-To-Ship & Ship-To-Helo communication) and remote ground stations (Ship-To-Satellite communication), improving the control of the mission and increasing the detection range.

The fact of ROASW system enables small combat ships (500 to 2000 ton) to actively participate in ASW missions closest to cost produced a great impact on the audience.

SAES in UNVEX’14. Using UAVs in ASW missions.

SAES will offer a conference about the Remote Operation Anti-submarine warfare (ROASW) system , the most advanced and recent ASW system in its class currently, in UNVEX’2014. ROASW system has been designed to solve the new requirements that ASW missions have to face.

Escenario ASW. SDL_Comunicación S2H.SAES – Underwater electronics, will attend next week to the Third conference on unmanned vehicles UNVEX’2014 to be held in Madrid from 4 to 6 March. Within the conference program, responsible for SAES ASW systems, Ignacio Gutierrez, will present his new ASW solution, at a conference entitled «Industry Solutions II», scheduled for Tuesday, March 4 at 13.00.

New ASW missions require the use of UAVs as distant and elevated platform without the need of a dedicated operator. In addition, different platforms deployed in the mission have to share tactical and intelligence information. In this context, the Remote Operation ASW System acquires mayor relevance, as it is specifically designed for these new ASW mission requirements.
