Product Description
The QR013 Channelised Receiver is an 8 channel parallel processing IFM architecture providing instantaneous
2-18GHz frequency coverage in a VME Form Factor unit. Extension to the frequency coverage down to 0.5GHz is
readily achievable as an option.
A low loss broadband multiplexer structure channelisers the 2-18GHz band into 8 channels of nominally 2GHz width.
The output of each channel is amplified and downconverted to a common IF of 0.5Ghz to 3GHz and presented to an
array of identical digital IFM units implemented using FPGA techniques. Amplitude measurement is combined with the
frequency measurement in each channel, resulting in a full descriptor word being available simultaneously from each
2GHz segment of the RF spectrum. This high POI architecture offers exceptional quality of signal measurement in
complex emitter scenarios containing multiple simultaneous signals of interest when unwanted interfering signals are
also present.
