Key highlights

The Multi-Channel L-Band LEO/MEO Radio is a four-channel satellite radio for L-band communications, radar and high-speed signal generation. It supports DVB-S2/DVB-S2X up to 256 APSK or chirped signals with 1 GHz bandwidth, making it relevant for SatCom payloads, synthetic aperture radar (SAR), radar data acquisition and digital predistortion workflows. The radio delivers up to 4 Gbps raw data rate per channel and up to 16 Gbps raw aggregate data rate in a compact 500 g package, helping payload designers add multi-channel RF capability without excessive SWaP or DC power burden.

Applications

LEO satellite communications, MEO satellite communications, L-band payload radios, synthetic aperture radar, SAR chirp waveform generation, radar DAQ, digital predistortion, high-speed RF data processing, multi-channel SatCom payloads
