Sunhillo’s SDDS-IP (Surveillance Data Distribution System for IP-centric topologies) is a groundbreaking solution designed to level the playing field making the safe interoperability of surveillance data a reality. Sunhillo’s Surveillance Data Distribution system (SDDS-IP) is a fully integrated IP system that combines multiple dissimilar radar sources for surveillance distribution and monitoring
Surveillance Data: The Brigantine Surveillance Gateway Processor (SGP), running our standard SureLine Software, is used as the core of the SDDS-IP System. Standard off the shelf switches provide a front end for the Input/Output LANs to connect to multiple IP Radars. For optional Legacy Serial connected radars, Sunhillo’s RICI or Longport is used.
ASTERIX Toolkit: ASTERIX message processing and validation within SureLine is performed using our ASTERIX Toolkit library, which is part of the SureLine application software. This library is used across our products to decode, modify and validate ASTERIX data.
Multi-Track Fusion: The Brigantine SGP’s SureLine Software processes multiple tracks from radar and ADS-B and utilizes the Multi-Track Fusion software which selects the best one for display minimizing screen clutter on the surveillance display
Surveillance Monitoring: SDDS is monitored via the SureLine Status Display which offers a top view of the data passing through the device using the live dataflow on the web GUI. Additionally data can be displayed on the SureLine Radar Display which shows real-time Plot data and Real-Time Data Display which views the message data.
Record & Replay: SureLine supports recording in the following formats, raw (binary), and packet capture (PCAP). Recorded data can be replayed either through Wireshark or our raw file input node to reproduce any issues.
Redundancy: When running redundantly, each network switch is connected to its redundant server with a monitor port allowing all traffic into and out of the server to be viewed by the redundant system. The two gateways are interconnected on a separate redundant LANs to create a heartbeat network between the redundant servers. This redundant configuration ensures no single point of failure
SureLine is deployed to over 50 countries
