2006 - Roke Manor Research's 50th Anniversary

Technology Solutions

Roke Manor Research is long established as one of the UK's leading communications and electronics research and development organisations. Using our expertise in these technologies, we pride ourselves on being able to bring a competitive advantage to all our customers.

One of our key strengths is our breadth of knowledge we have in communications, electronics, and networks and the way in which each area benefits from the other by the close co-operation between our engineers across all departments. The same holds true for our civil and defence work where both sectors can benefit from the other due to cross fertilisation of our engineering developments.

Our Technologies

Our three core engineering activities are introduced below - just click on the titles to enter each section. In addition to design, development and consultancy work in these areas we also offer additional consultancy and design services in other related areas.

Networks

Closely tied to our work in communications is also our expertise in networks. We can assist in developing network systems from design and simulation through to deployment where we can also help with network management. We are familiar with wireless networked systems as well as the development of various network services (such as Internet applications and web management technologies) to run on this and other types of network. On the hardware side, we are world leaders in routing technology and TCP Accelerator/Enhancer technologies


Communication Systems

We have experts in all fields of communication systems ready to assist you with your developments. We have been developing fixed and mobile systems since the company was founded in 1956 and are still leading the way today. Naturally we are world leaders in Cellular Systems, including 3G (UMTS) and 4G technologies, but also in Broadcast, Satellite, and short range Ultra Wide Band systems. As well as having developed the world's first DAB receiver, our other work and achievements in communications include Software Defined Radio, Location Technologies for pin pointing the positions of handsets, and naturally we are also very active in the standardisation bodies to help define future communication systems.


Electronic Sensors

Our work in this area covers a very wide range of fields and applications which are continually expanding as more uses our found for our technologies. For example, we have applied our Acoustics knowledge to diverse applications as artillery fire location and communications. Other fields include Electro-magnetic Sensors (where our Epsilon™ tool was developed); Imaging Systems, which brought us Hawk-Eye and Number Plate RecognitionPositioning and Timing Systems including our multilateration and sub-nanosecond time synchronisation system; Radar - from assisting us parking our cars to the development of naval radars; Stealth Engineering and counter stealth engineering (CELLDAR™); and also Electro-Optic Systems.
