Introduction

A low cost and highly reliable equipment ready

for the most severe climatic conditions
The Indra DVOR is the ultimate choice in
Doppler VHF omnidirectional range
equipments combining quality with
exceptional value for money.
The equipment employs state-of-the-art
technology ensuring high reliability in order
to meet the demands of both civil and
military requirements.
Integrity, reliability and maintainability are
fundamental to the design concept of this
system.
The equipment has been tested under the
most demanding environmental conditions,
ensuring equipment operation in any
environment.

DVOR

The Indra DVOR is an easy to use system

requiring minimal maintenance that meets
or exceeds all requirements of ICAO annex
10, volume I edition 6, and EUROCAE ED52, this enables interoperability with all
currently available radio navigation aids on
the market.

The Indra DVOR is based on a modular design

architecture, solid state components and
auto-diagnosis Built In Test (BIT) concept
to provide a superior level of reliability.
Direct Digital Synthesizer (DDS) techniques
are used for timing, frequency and waveform
generation circuitry, derived from a single
stable temperature-compensated crystal
clock circuit which ensures accurate clocking
of all critical time-dependent pulse
generation and measurement circuits.

RMM
The Indra DVOR equipment can be
integrated with a versatile and robust
software architecture that allows control
and supervision to be performed locally or
remotely, with several security levels.
The software architecture is based on
standard protocols which provide intuitive
and simple operation.

There are different interfaces such as

Ethernet, RS-232 and RS-485 allowing
system compatibility and remote control
connections accomplished by multiple means
including dial-up modem, leased-lines, radio,
IP-based Virtual Private Network (VPN),
Ethernet, and cellular networks.

Maintenance and reliability

The Indra DVOR includes a Built In Test (BIT)
capability designed to detect, isolate and
report any malfunction or condition out of
tolerance by using automatic and noninterruptive self-tests down to LRU level.

AIR TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT/CNS

These BIT system capabilities reduce

dramatically the routine maintenance tasks
and repair times, allowing the chance of
predicting a degradation of system
performances. The results of the BITE
process are available both locally and
remotely via L/RMM.

The maintenance concept is based on LRU

modules, easily accessible and exchangeable.
All components of the Indra DVOR have been
selected to provide maximum reliability and
minimize maintenance costs.
