Reelektronika History
2009 | Delivery of eLoran monitor systems and Loradd ASF measurement equipment to leading European system operators |
2008 | Extended interest in Reelektronika’s integrated eLoran-GPS LORADD receivers and related products due to US Government decision to continue Loran as a backup to GPS |
2007 | Reelektronika was awarded the delivery of the Eurofix equipment for the new eLoran station at Anthorn, UK. Trinity House contracted VT Telecommunication to install this station to provide eLoran services at least until 2022. |
2004 | Reelektronika started a partnership cooperation with Megapulse, the largest manufacturer of eLoran transmitters in the world. This succesful cooperation led to synergies in eLoran projects all over the world and in the availability of LORADD receivers produced under licence in the US. |
2003 | Dr. Gerard Offermans and Dr. Arthur Helwig received the PhD degree Cum Laude from the Delft University of Technology. |
2002 | Gerard Offermans and Arthur Helwig joined Reelektronika. Start of the third generation of Loran/GPS receiver LORADD. |
2001 | Standardisation of Eurofix data transmission in Recommendation ITU-R M.589-3 by the International Telecommunication Union |
2000 | Prof. Durk van Willigen became full-time CEO of Reelektronika. Eurofix installed on 4 European Loran-C stations |
1999 | Installation and test of Eurofix on the Russian Chayka transmitter at Bryansk |
1998 | Installation and test of Eurofix on the USCG Wildwood Loran-C transmitter |
1997 | First Eurofix transmissions from Sylt in cooperation with Megapulse |
1995 | First PC-based Tele-DISCO, a remote radar-based display system |
1994 | First Loran-C receiver with tracking data logging |
1992 | Tele-DISCO with targe tracking for inland waterways |
1989 | Prof. Durk van Willigen first published the concept of Eurofix in the Journal of Navigation of the Royal Institute of Navigation |
1985 | First generation of microprocessor-based Loran-C receiver |
1984 | Reelektronika started a fruitful long-lasting cooperation with INA b.v. (now knows a Northrop Grumman Sperry Marine) on radar signal processing on cost-effective methods for the visualisation of remote radar images. |
1982 | Mr. René Kellenbach, MSc of the Delft University of Technology, joined Reelektronika which marked the start of extensive radar signal processing activities and the development of Loran-C receivers. |
1975 | Prof. Durk van Willigen founded Reelektronika BV. The mission of the company focuses on systems architecture, engineering, designing and manufacturing of electronic circuits, and consultancy. |
