Telemetry and Control Networks
MICAN's professionals possess many years
of experience and knowledge gained from designing, planning,
engineering, and implementing various types of control systems.
 |
Systems |
 |
Control systems provide different kinds
of data input depending on the application of the underlying
network. Systems are used for:
| Control of devices |
| Telemetry and ballistics
|
| Monitoring |
| Automated and remote
network restoration |
| Self-healing and report |
| Data logging |
| Alarms and security |
| SCADA (Supervisory
Control and Data Acquisition) |
| Remote access |
| Characterization |
| If, Then, or Else, logic and programming |
| PLC (Programmable
Logic Control) |
|
Applications |
|
There are a
wide variety of applications that use advanced control
solutions. Some of the applications
that we can help you with include:
| Satellite uplinks and downlinks |
| Television and radio
transmission |
| Optical fibre networks |
| Microwave networks
|
| Power grid management out-of-band control networks |
| Water treatment and
distribution out-of-band control networks |
| Smart building systems |
| Automated underground
mining systems |
| SCADA for utilities, such as water
and hydro |
|
