Shoghi WBR provides the recording of wideband signal as well as direction finding raw data. It consists of recording hardware with wide band tuner, which is controlled by software. WBR software provides monitoring and control of a wideband-tuner. The recorded data can be analyzed by the off-line utility of the WBR. The On-line utility provides a graphical user interface for tuner control, power spectrum and sonogram display.

System provides the flexibility for the operators to navigate within the displayed signals with the mouse and vary the displayed bandwidth by the zoom function. They can determine the amplitude and the signal field strength with the cursors. The analog demodulator can be tuned to the desired receiving frequency either with the mouse or with the keyboard.

Off-Line utility of WBR provides a “Virtual Analyzer” application (VA), which allows fast access and quick processing of stored wideband data. The wideband signal can be displayed in different resolutions in the VA. This ranges from the display of the complete wideband signal to almost any frequency resolution and time resolution. Thereby, the zoom operations within the wideband signal are performed very fast at a simultaneous minimization of data transferred over the network. Emissions detected in the visualization can be marked and be added to a table of detected emissions. Each detected emission can be described by customized or prepared attributes, e.g. modulation type or other signal parameters. Functions can be applied on each emission, e.g. audio output or analysis. The functions are implemented as plug-ins. Thus, new functions can be added to an existing VA very easily.
