Traveler Pod - T-Pod

PGL Payloads on UAVs

Capabilities

Pod based software defined multi-protocol system capable of GSM survey/map/geo-location, CDMA survey/map geo-location, HPCP/PTT intercept/DF, Thuraya intercept/copy/geo-location. Traveler's less instrusive techniques reduces network signature/impact on the network. Provides robust airborne network survey capability.

Limitations and Planning Factors

- In development for USSOCOM Warrior Blk-1 - 5-35 awaiting 3U Traveler variant prior to Pod integration - Pod weight: ~180 lbs (with payloads) - Current Payload (s): Traveler 6U (Warrior) - Payload Vendor (s): BAE Systems

Integrator

BAE Systems ICW General Atomics
U.K.-based BAE's pods “are designed to find and eavesdrop on electronic emitters, identify them, then offer aerial precision geolocation (APG) and copying. SIGINT/ELINT pods and equipment can already be installed in larger [drones] like the USAF's RQ-4 Global Hawks, and aboard light surveillance planes like the Beechcraft King Air MC-12Ws.” — Margot Williams, The Intercept

Protocols

GSM, CDMA, Thuraya, HPCP/PTT, TTL
