CPI SAT L-Band Synthesized Tracking Receiver (DTR) System

DTR Satellite Antenna Tracking System

The CPI SAT (formerly GD Satcom Technologies & Prodelin) Digital Tracking Receiver (DTR) is a fully synthesized tracking receiver developed for satellite tracking and uplink power control applications. This DSP-based receiver accepts wideband RF inputs, performs frequency selection, and digitally processes the selected signal.

Versatile Configuration

The DTR can be configured for numerous input frequency ranges from L-band to Ka-band. Multi-band applications are also readily accommodated. DDS techniques facilitate 1 kHz frequency resolution for any input frequency range. The use of DSP technology, rather than conventional analog radio techniques, provides outstanding linearity and operational flexibility. Software controlled signal detection can accommodate virtually any modulation scheme.

Built-In GUI

A powerful and intuitive user interface provides the ability to custom configure specific applications in a very straightforward manner. The user set- tings provide easy configuration of tracking signal slope to match a wide range of next-level system components. A “Spectral Display” function allows the user to view real time amplitude vs. frequency data. The flexibility and unparalleled attributes, resulting from state-of-the art concepts and components, places the DTR at the forefront of receiver technology.
