Telemus: Contributing to the CEMA picture

This article is part of our SPOTLIGHT ON CANADA

With over 36 years of experience, Canadian electronic warfare specialist Telemus provides advanced EW systems, products and capabilities to governments, prime contractors and military customers globally.

Telemus Systems Inc. is an agile, privately owned Canadian company delivering non-ITAR, scalable Electronic Intelligence (ELINT) and Non-Comms Electronic Surveillance capabilities (ESM) in support of multi-domain operations.

Based in Ottawa, but operating globally, our specialists boast an impressive FVEYs background, with expertise drawn from the UK, New Zealand and Canadian Forces to successfully deliver technology, training and in-service support since 1984.

Telemus designs, deliver sand integrates networkable, high performing systems for Land, Maritime and Air deployments with form factors configured around our field proven, core hardware and TALON software application. Our users benefit from lower through life cost of ownership due to the reuse of common modules, as well as lower training overhead due to the single analysis toolset for detection, collection and processing of Radar Signals of Interest (SOI).

ELINT and Non-Comms ESM contribute to the overall Cyber Electromagnetic Activities (CEMA) operating picture. The ability to detect and identify Radar emitters, as well as link them to associated weapons, platforms or units is a key strategic enabler to developing an Electronic Order of Battle.

Concurrently, in the tactical domain, ELINT and Non-Comms ESM provide Indicators and Warnings of threat emitters, which can be coupled to soft or hard kill systems for border, Forward Operating Base (FOB) or platform protection. As a passive detection tool, ELINT & Non-Comms ESM afford an effective and accurate collect and Direction Find (DF) asset whilst remaining difficult to detect themselves.

Scalability is provided across all domains, with configurations being provided for small Unmanned Air Systems through to manned aircraft for airborne Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR), and lightweight, man portable systems through to containerised Electronic Warfare Signals Intelligence (EWSI) fits for vehicle mounted, static and FOB deployments.

Those containerised configurations can also be deck mounted as mission specific fits for maritime platforms, providing agile and configurable payloads.

Detailed analysis of detected ELINT or Non-Comms SOI is delivered via the TALON software suite. Capable of ingesting data from Telemus systems as well as other third-party solutions, it enables trained operators to undertake detailed investigation of SOI information. This can then be referenced against the Emitter Library for identification of the specific emitter.

Telemus recognises that effective capability is not achieved by technology alone. The need for subject matter expertise across training, threat awareness, operational concepts and in-service support underpin the effective deployment, maintenance, and sustainment of capability.

With over 30 years of pedigree in Electronic Warfare, our Users benefit from a collaborative relationship which supports the right package of technology, support, and training at point of delivery and throughout the system service life.
