​The U.S. Army 3rd Infantry Division (3ID) put TRX’s Dismount Electronic Warfare (EW) Kit to the test during a Tactical Electronic Warfare Kit Capstone Event held at Fort Stewart in Georgia earlier this May.

Traditionally, navigational warfare (NAVWAR) is orchestrated from Tactical Operations Centers (TOCs) and overwatch positions located on the periphery of a conflict zone. The TRX EW Kit, for the first time, puts advanced electronic warfighting tools into the hands of dismounted soldiers, enabling them to detect, map, and mitigate NAVWAR attacks in real-time, directly from their positions on the battlefield.

Interested in working for an award-winning developer of products that provide location and mapping where GPS is unavailable? TRX’s GPS-denied location solutions deliver assured position in contested environments, support network coverage analysis, and enhance situational awareness for military, public safety, and security personnel. We’re expanding our development team to support accelerating demand for our technology.   ​

​TRX Systems, developer of NEON® GPS-denied location solutions, announced today the delivery of the TRX Systems Dismount Electronic Warfare (EW) Kit, developed as a U.S. Army Rapid Capabilities and Critical Technologies Office (RCCTO) prototype to extend Electronic Warfare (EW) and Signal Intelligence (SIGINT) for the dismounted warfighter. ​The TRX EW Kit adds powerful new capabilities to the company’s NEON Personnel Tracker-MIL solution, expanding the integration between the NEON Location Service and the ATAK application to better equip dismount personnel for detection and mapping of jamming and spoofing attacks. 

TRX Systems is now delivering NEON technology for precise positioning of warfighters during live military training exercises. Seamless and accurate positioning of all personnel during training is critical to support new capabilities during direct and indirect fire and to enable detailed after-action review. ​

​TRX’s NEON Signal Mapper solution is used by hundreds of organizations around the world for mapping signal and sensor data indoors and in other areas without GPS. The latest update to Signal Mapper was released this week with a new, dual mode functionality that significantly enhances data collection, visualization, and reporting capabilities and continues to drive down the cost to map signal and sensor data inside large buildings. Watch a short demonstration of the new dual mode feature here: https://youtu.be/IIsNxB7Sjss. 

TRX Systems will demonstrate its GPS-denied technologies developed for warfighters and first responders at the Tech-Palooza event on Tuesday, November 17th at the Emerging Technology Institute (ETI) in Red Springs, North Carolina. TRX joins leading technology companies Microsoft, IBM, Panasonic, Syncopated Engineering, and others demonstrating a broad range of technologies including Internet of Things, AI & Autonomy, Wearables, and Tag/Track/Locate Solutions. TRX will demonstrate its GPS-denied dismount personnel location, signal and sensor mapping and NEON Micro-Tracer, its newest solution for COVID-19 contact tracing and alerting. ​

​Location data is paramount for the safety and situational awareness of our warfighters – to support this need  at the U.S. Air Force’s Tech Warrior OPS event last October, TRX showcased the unique capability of the NEON GPS-Denied Location Solution to seamlessly track personnel in environments where GPS doesn’t work. Hosted by the Air Force Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program, TRX demonstrated the NEON solution’s ability to meet location and performance accuracy requirements in varying environments using a combination of body-worn sensors and ultra-wideband ranging technology. The system was demonstrated to seamlessly track personnel from outdoors where they might have GPS available into buildings and underground areas that are GPS-denied.  

​TRX announces the integration of NEON Signal Mapper​ with VIAVI CellAdvisor® 5G and OneAdvisor-800 real-time spectrum analyzers providing an automated solution that simplifies and dramatically reduces the time required for 4G-LTE and 5G-NR cellular coverage testing. The availability of this new combined solution provides automatic geo‐referencing and cloud data storage with innovative 3D visualization and reporting to validate 4G and 5G coverage and performance.

VIAVI CellAdvisor 5G and OneAdvisor-800 are innovative, comprehensive, and easy-to-use base station analyzers that are ideal field-portable solutions to validate and deploy 5G radio access networks. A short demonstration of the TRX-VIAVI CellAdvisor integrated solution can be viewed below: 

​TRX Systems was awarded the $250,000 Grand Prize at the U.S. Army’s third Expeditionary Technology Search (xTechSearch 3) competition. TRX Systems was selected as the xTechSearch 3 Grand Prize winner by the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Acquisition, Logistics and Technology (ASA(ALT)) at the virtual xTech Summit held Sept. 9-11, 2020.

​This week, the U.S. Army is hosting its premier technology showcase, the xTech 3 Summit - a first-ever virtual event highlighting the innovative technologies from more than 250 unique small businesses that have been incubated through the Army’s xTechSearch program. 

​TRX Systems was selected as a U.S. Army xTechSearch 3  Phase IV finalist by the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Acquisition, Logistics and Technology. TRX’s NEON® GPS-denied dismount PNT solution was one of 12 finalists selected from hundreds of new technologies that were evaluated by the Army. Each of the finalists were awarded a $120,000 prize at the 2019 AUSA Annual Meeting and Expo at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, D.C.

TRX announced today that it has been awarded a Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology Directorate (S&T) research contract to deliver an In-building Coverage and Analysis System using a first responder's radio and smartphone. The solution will quickly inform public safety users about wireless service availability within a building and in other GPS-denied areas and enable the easy identification of communication coverage gaps within specific buildings and across a total service area.

TRX Systems has relocated its headquarters to accommodate the company’s growth and to provide expanded laboratory, prototyping, test, and training facilities.

TRX’s new facility is located in the center of the Baltimore-Washington corridor, providing convenient access to TRX customers – including those within federal agencies and the US Army – and to TRX Systems integrator, technology, and university partners. Only a few miles from the University of Maryland College Park, the new location is convenient to UMCP’s Clark School of Engineering, a top 25 engineering school, as well as the area’s other top universities.

​TRX announced today the release of the NEON Enterprise Server (NES)​, a private, secure, and containerized version of the 3D map and location capabilities provided by the NEON Cloud. The release of the NES provides a self-hosting option for government agencies, commercial enterprises, and military operators that cannot leverage NEON’s commercial cloud services.

​Anritsu recently released the MS27101A-IBCM In-Building Coverage Mapper bundle, a fully integrated coverage mapping solution enabling technicians to verify proper signal power across multiple frequencies in a single walk-through. The combination of NEON® MA8100 Signal Mapper with the MS27101A and accessories in an innovative backpack bundle provides a compact, easy-to-use solution for automated testing and reporting of in-building and outdoor coverage and performance.
