2. Introduction
The transmission of an impulse via radio is a critical phase in timekeeping. The possibility of losing
the data transmitted, of having very inaccurate timing and the transmission difficulties in some
zones has often made timekeepers and trainers sceptical about this type of approach.
The LINKGATE system represents a radical innovation in the field of radio transmission of
impulses for timekeeping. Technological evolution has enabled us to go from the old impulse
transmission systems to the more modern data transmission concept, which can guarantee
extreme accuracy, the transmission of large quantities of information and greater reliability. In
addition, the compact size of the system makes the LINKGATE system the ideal instrument for
training and competitions at every level.
Linkgate EncRadio SF and DecRadio SF represent a further innovation with respect to the well-
known and highly esteemed Linkgate Encoder and Decoder. The evolution of the products has
resulted in the embedding of high reliability low power radio modules (433 MHz 10 mW/500mW)
for transmission and reception of signals in both the transmitter (Linkgate EncRadio SF) and
receiver (Linkgate DecRadio SF).
Exploiting the characteristics of the modules, which work on FM on a very narrow band, and the
intrinsic reliability of Linkgate EncRadio SF and DecRadio SF, long distance transmission (over
2Km for the 10mW version and over 9Km for the 500mW version) can be achieved.
In addition, the system’s extremely low power consumption allows long autonomy of use which,
together with the possibility of recharging the batteries, represents a great plus of the whole system.
3. Field of use and Homologization
The device is intended to be used for competitive sports activities (as indicated in Art. 334 of cod.
P.T. point 4) in all sports disciplines (e.g. skiing, athletics, horse-racing, mountain bike, motor
racing,etc.) both at amateur and professional level. The homologization code is
DGPGF/4/2/03/3398837FO/.
