4. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
4.1 Introduction
RADius (patent pending) represents a completely new way of utilising radar principles in
short range and direction monitoring. RADius is mainly meant to be used in operations where
increased safety is crucial. The system could typically be used to control or assist automatic
dynamic positioning (DP) of a vessel.
The RADius system is designed to operate close by structures and other vessels. The use of
identifiable transponders minimizes the risk of tracking false echoes.

DGPS
As shown in Figure 3, DGPS and RADius have complementary characteristics when closing
up to large structures. The DGPS systems will suffer from limited view of the sky, resulting in
degraded GPS availability. This can be crucial when the GPS constellation is at its minimum
and the most important satellite disappears behind the structure. The RADius system
increases its performance as it moves closer to the transponders located on the structure.
15
RADius 1000 User's Manual, rev. 3 Technical description
Innovative technology
The implementation is fully solid state and based on measuring reflected signals from a
number of transponders who represent targets in the nearby area. Each reflected signal is
mixed with a unique ID in order to separate different transponders from each other. Advanced
signal processing allows simultaneous and continuous measurements from up to five
transponders. RADius is designed for multiple vessels utilizing the same transponders
simultaneously.
Advanced principles
One or more Interrogator Units are located at the manoeuvring vessel and one or more
transponders are attached to different points at the remote object. Signal processing will
effectively remove possible interference with other transmitting devices in the same
frequency band. Application software makes configuration and monitoring of the RADius
operation easy and effective. Interfaces to remote systems are provided through serial lines.
RADius is designed to fill the need specified by IMO for DP Class 2 vessels.
Operational features
RADius is capable of detecting and measuring the distance to transponders within the range
of up to 1000 metres. The angle between the Interrogator and each transponder is determined
by the use of interferometric methods. RADius is delivered with an easy-to-use graphical user
interface.
RADius is a high precision position reference and tracking system based on radar principles.
The system may include a number of Interrogators and transponders. The Interrogator is used
to read the individual distance and direction to a number of transponders by means of
microwaves.
The Interrogator includes a transmitter unit, a receiver unit and a pre-processor unit. The
Interrogator communicates with the Processing Unit through an Ethernet link.
Each transponder includes antennas, a side band oscillator and a voltage source. The
transponder generates sub-carriers at individual frequencies for identification. The RADius
500 low power transponder is powered by a battery. The RADius 600 high gain transponder
is permanently connected to 6 VDC through an AC/DC converter.

RADius 1000 User's Manual, rev. 3 Technical description
RADius measures range based on the FM-CW principle. It sweeps the frequency transmitted
and mixes the transmitted signal with the received signal. The transmitted signal has changed
frequency during the flight time of the received signal and it is the difference between the
transmitted frequency and the received frequency that is measured. This frequency difference
is proportional to twice the distance to the transponder.
High precision
range Tracking range Acquisition range
The RADius characteristics are determined from the measuring principles. This leads to
different performance at different ranges. The accuracy is best at close range. Between 10 -
200 metres optimal accuracy is acquired. Between 200 - 500 metres distance and bearing is
measured but the accuracy is degraded due to the nature of angle measurements. Beyond 500
metres, the system acquires the transponders but only with range measurements. These can be
used to verify the functionality of the system (typically prior to entering 500-metre safety
zone).

6. MAINTENANCE
6.1 General
RADius consists of a software part and a hardware part. The software part can be reinstalled
or upgraded to the latest version in the field by loading a floppy disk into the Processing Unit.
Service of the RADius hardware in the field can consist of:
The Processing Unit, Interrogator Unit or the transponders are not designed for service in the
field and opening the housing will result in damage or degradation of the units and void the
warranty. Failed units have to be shipped back to Kongsberg Seatex for service. The return
address is provided in the first pages of this manual.
During the time a failed unit is in for service, Kongsberg Seatex AS will be helpful by renting
the user a spare component if needed.
The periodic maintenance of the RADius 1000 can be divided into four categories: software
upgrades, cleaning of air inlet, inspection of cables and connectors (for possible damage),
cleaning of IU cover.
41
RADius 1000 User's Manual, rev. 3 Maintenance
Kongsberg Seatex AS will regularly offer software upgrades for the RADius 1000 with
improvements and new functionalities. It is up to the user to decide whether he will upgrade
his unit to the latest version.
The air inlet at the rear of the Processing Unit needs to be cleaned or replaced regularly (at
least twice a year) to avoid overheating of the unit. Remove plastic cover (encircled below)
and replace the filter behind the cover with a new filter or clean the existing filter free of dust
before replacing it.
The cables and connectors must periodically be inspected for possible damage. If the
connectors are damaged, the connectors and cables must be replaced. The IU must be sent to
Kongsberg Seatex AS for inspection and servicing. Alternatively, service personnel can be
sent to inspect the RADius system on-site.
Keeping the IU and transponder plastic cover clean is important to maintain a fully
operational and accurate system. Use a moist cloth to clean the covers.
42
RADius 1000 User's Manual, rev. 3 Maintenance
The Processing Unit is not designed for service in the field. All repairs and modifications of
