SharpEye™ Naval Radar Transceiver
The SharpEye™ I- and E/F-Band transceivers are new generation navigation and short-range tactical surveillance radars exceeding the enhanced performance requirements mandated by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) under the Radar Performance Standard IEC 62388.
MantaDigital™ is driven by Kelvin Hughes' 'common-core' processor system which is now in use throughout the Radar, ECDIS and VDR product ranges providing enhanced functionality, reliability and low cost of ownership. Kelvin Hughes Radar Mantadigital Technical Manual Posted: admin On 6/14/2018 MantaDigital™ - Magnetron Radar Systems MantaDigital™ - Magnetron Radar Systems Kelvin Hughes radar systems have served the shipping industry for over 60 years, designing, building and supplying innovative radar technology.
The I Band SharpEye™ will replace the existing Type 1007 and similar I Band navigation radars which are in service in both surface warships and logistics vessels. Compared with a conventional (non-coherent) I Band navigation radar system, SharpEye™ delivers an improvement in sub-clutter visibility typically in the region of 30 dB, enabling targets with small radar cross-sections (typically 0.5 m²) to be detected even in the presence of heavy sea and rain clutter. This makes it an ideal choice for the early detection of small ‘asymmetric' targets such as Fast Inshore Attack Crafts (FIACs) and enhances situational awareness and vessel security.
SharpEye™ uses a solid-state power amplifier with a peak output power of about 170 W and a duty cycle of 10%. It transmits relatively long internally modulated pulses in order to illuminate targets with sufficient energy for detection. To provide the required short range performance, SharpEye™ transmits a sequence of pulses of differing length, with each pulse optimised to cover a specified but overlapping range bracket. SharpEye™ is able to separate targets from clutter due to their differing radial velocity components. A Doppler filter bank of up to 1024 different filters processes the echoes received from the pulse sequence to extract the radial velocities of targets and clutter alike.

ECDIS Ltd provides Kelvin Hughes MantaDigitalTM Widescreen on board familiarisation
UK based ECDIS training and consultancy company ECDIS Ltd are pleased to announce the launch of their new on-board familiarisation course for Kelvin Hughes' MantaDigital™ Widescreen software.
Kelvin Hughes' newest ECDIS software has been on the market since 2012 and ECDIS Ltd has now produced its own training solution which meets the requirement of the ISM code and Safety Management System training requirements and is convenient for the marine and the shipping company.
The colonel%27s bequest for mac. John Ritchie, ECDIS Course Manager at ECDIS Ltd, says,
'Kelvin Hughes are constantly evolving, and a particularly strong example of this is the new MantaDigitalTM Widescreen software. We are delighted to be their international independent training partner and will continue to match the development of their ECDIS software with the highest standard of professional courses.'
Natalie Robson, Marketing Manager at ECDIS Ltd, adds,
'It has been a real pleasure getting to know another ECDIS system, allowing us to provide a realistic and balanced training course for the mariner. The MantaDigitalTM Widescreen has taken a fresh approach to ECDIS bearing little resemblance to the previous versions, highlighting the need for mariners to be trained in each system.'

ECDIS Ltd
ECDIS Ltd provide navigation training, purchasing, charting and consultation in Electronic Chart Display and Information Systems (ECDIS) and the military equivalent (WECDIS, ECDIS-N). A forward thinking company, they have pioneered the embodiment of ECDIS in SMS procedures with the ECDIS Procedures Guide and have paved the way for a better understanding of ECDIS with the ECDIS Manual. ECDIS Ltd specialise in providing Flag State approved IMO model ECDIS courses and Equipment Specific training on an extensive number of systems. Static training is delivered in their state of the art Training Centre near Southampton (UK) and portable training can be conducted in a location of the customer's choosing, even onboard if facilities can support it. ECDIS Ltd trainers are highly experienced in the practical use of ECDIS, and combined have taught over 1500 mariners. Their static ECDIS training is endorsed and accredited by the Maritime and Coastguard Agency, whilst their portable training solution is approved by Det Norske Veritas. Equipment Specific training is accredited by the Nautical Institute.
