Figure 8 Basic Magnetron System
RVP901 IF
Digitizer Receiver
(IFDR)
IDR installed in the radar receiver cabinet up to 25 m from RVP902
main chassis.
The optional Digital Automatic Frequency Control (DAFC) interfaces to
a digitally controlled STALO.
RVP900 provides full AFC control with burst pulse auto-tracking.
I/O-62 PCI Card Available for additional triggers, parallel, synchro or encoder AZ and
EL angle inputs, pulse width control, spot blanking control output, and
more. The signals are brought in through the connector panel.
RVP902 Signal
Processor
19" rack-mounted computer with a dual processor multi-core running a
Linux operating system.
3.1.5.2 RVP900 Example Configuration for Dual Polarity Magnetron
The following figure shows a dual receive channel on the RVP901 IFDR.
The receive signals, in both channels, are at the same IF frequency. Each channel has its own
16-bit ADC converter, which are phase locked to the master clock. No additional signal
processing hardware is required to convert to a dual-polarization solution. The functionality
is an optionally licensed feature.
