How can live spectrum intelligence inform electronic warfare decisions at every command level? At today’s Future Land Forces briefing in Warsaw, delegates were particularly interested in how HTZ Warfare, ICS Monitoring, HiNT and ICS Manager can work together to automate workflows across detection, analysis and planning. The discussion also covered transceiver siting, counter-CRPA analysis, RF propagation in different weather conditions, 3D mapping and equipment management across command levels. Thanks to everyone who joined us. Missed the demo? Join us online for expert-led sessions and live demonstrations at the ATDI EW Summit (https://bit.ly/4iwQF1n).

Automating Network Planning for Open-Pit Mines. The mine changes. The network plan needs to keep pace. Changing terrain, new surveys, and relocated communications infrastructure can quickly affect radio coverage. Traditionally, every change means rerunning predictions and regenerating coverage maps. HTZ Automate replaces this repetitive process with an automated workflow. Define the study once, and updated DTMs or infrastructure locations trigger new coverage calculations, maps and reports, with standardised outputs every time. Applied within an operational mining environment, this approach keeps RF planning aligned with changing terrain while reducing repetitive engineering effort. HTZ Automate supports LTE FDD, private mobile networks, and TETRA, with APIs that connect existing operational systems and data sources. The result: faster network updates, consistent RF analysis and greater confidence in connectivity as the mine evolves. A demonstration of this connectivity will be available soon.

Frequency Coordination in HTZ for Incoming Earth Stations https://bit.ly/3zPP0wI ATDI’s latest video guide shows how to perform frequency coordination for incoming ITU Earth station in the 28 GHz band. The tutorial provides step-by-step instructions for the coordination process. Users should note that the import process has been automated to speed up the coordination process with HTZ able to import ITU SRS database version 9 and 9.1, ensuring efficient and accurate coordination of frequencies.

ATDI Supplies HTZ Communications to Support Wireless Connectivity at One of the World’s Largest Mining Projects Rio Tinto is using HTZ Communications at the Simandou iron ore project in Guinea to support RF planning across mission-critical wireless networks. The project incorporates DMR, Wi-Fi, wireless mesh and microwave technologies to support operational communications and IT/OT connectivity across one of the world’s largest mining developments. HTZ enables engineering teams to model coverage, assess interference and support reliable wireless communications across complex mining environments.

Created to support our recent webinar on wind turbine interference and airport radar performance, this technical demo explores how modern wind farms can affect air traffic control radar systems through clutter, false targets, and tracking instability. The session explains the technical principles behind wind turbine–radar interaction and examines the operational impact on both primary and secondary surveillance radars (PSR/SSR) within airport environments. It also outlines when rapid assessment methods, including the EUROCONTROL PSR/SSR framework, are suitable and when more detailed technical modelling is required. The demo concludes with practical mitigation strategies designed to support renewable energy deployment while maintaining airspace safety, radar integrity, and operational resilience.

Tropospheric link analysis using HTZ HTZ simulates and analyses the impact of tropospheric conditions on microwave communications. It provides accurate and reliable predictions of the behaviour of microwave signals in the troposphere using the ITU-R 617-5 propagation model. The ITU-R P.617-5 propagation model is the industry standard for analysing and predicting performance across a network. The model accounts for factors like atmospheric conditions, terrain, and transmitting and receiving equipment characteristics, allowing the user to optimise the system for maximum efficiency and reliability. Users can customise the simulation parameters in the model to match the end user’s needs. This function is used widely by researchers, engineers and network operators. It provides a user-friendly interface and intuitive controls to set up, analyse, and make informed decisions. HTZ supports advanced functions including multiple frequency bands, 3D terrain visualisation, and import/export function of data in various formats. Join Pierre Coutey, Senior RF Engineer at the upcoming Spectrum Management Summit as he presents a live demo of this function. This two-day event is open to industry and runs on 14-15 February.
