GDP Space Systems’ Telemetry Receiver product line now supports the combining of 4 RF Input Signals using a unique receiver architecture in which our frontend RF tuner / digitizer AGCs, down converts, filters and digitizes the received signal from each receiver channel. The digitized IF signal from each receiver is sent to our multi-input combiner/array processor via high-speed (digital) serial links. Combining of N channels (currently up to 4 channels) is then done in the digital domain. The array processor/combiner not only adjusts phase but also adjusts amplitude and performs time alignment of the RF signals. There are a variety of configurations available. In addition to the Data/Clock outputs from the channels and combiners, Ethernet Chapter 10 and IRIG 218 TMoIP outputs are available. The units also support IRIG106 Chapter 7 decoding.
