Markets

Aerospace

aerospace market description

AES SWaP-optimised data recorders and mission computers (all ITAR-free) are ideal for collecting analog and digital data during live flight trials. All information is stored on removable SSD cartridges for post-flight analysis on the ground. For pilot training, modern Flight Simulators accurately recreate the cockpit environment by using multiple computers, each focusing on one part of the simulation. This means sharing large amounts of data between multiple platforms, using high speed/low latency transfers. AES Shared Memory products (AKA Reflective Memory) use PCIe and are ideal for new simulator designs, or for replacing existing GE and Curtiss Wright (Systran) Reflective Memory systems when upgrading legacy systems.




Defence & Homeland Security

aerospace market description

Many of AES products combine rugged operation with small form factor and low power consumption. Land, Sea and Air vehicles all use our RF products for a range of applications, including Radar, SatComms, DF/Beamforming and lawful intercept of GSM traffic. Our scalable analog transceivers in the 100MHz to 10GHz range are used extensively by military prime contractors for EW (ECM, ESM) systems. During development of such applications, it is essential to capture data (Analog or Digital) without missing a single byte. The AES recorder range includes small form factor rugged units for use on fast jets and UAVs, and high capacity 19” rack-mountable units for collecting many TBytes of data at speeds up to 4GB/s. We also offer portable recorders for use in the field, with built-in screens and keyboard. Recorder input options include analog IO, sFPDP, GbE/10GbE/40GbE, or customised IO for a specific application. All equipment is non-ITAR controlled.


Communications

communications market description

Mobile Communications technology has progressed rapidly over the last 20 years, with new standards rolling out daily. As new frequency bands are opened up, so designers need new RF up/downconversion and new ADC and DAC capabilities to support them. AES products are highly configurable, providing (FPGA-based) programmable RF/IF conversion and analog sample rates up to 10GHz. Developers of GSM/3G/4G/LTE infrastructure will benefit from the test and validation features in Valid8’s software simulations of mobile network components. Fixed network designers can use Valid8’s Load Testers and Feature/Conformance Testers to verify correct operation of many standards including SIP, DHCP, ISDN, RADIUS/DIAMETER and WebRTC.






Industrial

industrial market description

AES has a range of products targeting industrial applications, including manufacturing and transportation. Our range of touch screens and industrial PCs are used in mobile and static applications, and our GSM-R Data Logger (EN50155 compliant) is used by train manufacturers across Europe. In manufacturing applications, our Reflective Memory products allow PCs spread across a factory site to share data in real-time over fibre links, giving a remote operator instant access to data gathered at the production line. AES works with Magna Power to supply programmable DC Power Supplies from 0-10000Vdc and 0-24000Adc, for use in R&D laboratories and industrial production.






Science & Technology

science & technology market description

Researchers need the best equipment in order to develop the technologies of the future. In the laboratory, this could mean high speed oscilloscopes or spectrum analysers to see detailed results, or programmable power supplies to validate a new product against international standards. AES works with Tektronix and Magna Power to supply high quality laboratory equipment at realistic prices.
