FIXED CONTROL STATIONS
Fixed Location Control Stations are typically located in one location such as a building, aircraft, or ship. This utilizes the host vehicle communication system to connect to the Remote Sensor System.

MOBILE CONTROL STATIONS
Some programs conduct their system testing at remote locations that don’t have the facilities to support fixed or Portable Control Stations, hence the Mobile Control Stations.
These Stations typically provide some sort of shelter to the operator and have greater power, data and cooling interfaces as compared to the Portable Systems.
