Overview
Textron Systems’ commercial RF Sources (RFS 340, SSI) provide an unmatched combination of frequency coverage, power range, signal fidelity and switching speed in either a two-slot VXI, 1U LXI®, or VME Synthetic Stimulus Instruments (SSI) format.
configurations
LXI®/VXI Formats
3 MHZ-40 GHZ WITH AMPLITUDE, FREQUENCY, PULSE AND DIGITAL MODULATION
Each radio frequency (RF) source allows easy signal creation specific to complex automated test equipment (ATE), communications network testing and electromagnetic environment simulation.
Our LXI-compatible Ethernet configuration includes an intuitive, web-based interface to ensure easy, out-of-the-box functionality, as well as remote operation from anywhere on the network. This is automation made easy.
- AM, FM, Pulse, I/Q, MSK, PSK, BPSK, QPSK, OQPSK, DQPSK, 8PSK, 16PSK, QAM: 4, 16, 32, 64, 256 and user-defined modulation schemes
- Supports external modulation inputs
- Available in LXI or VXI formats
LXI® is a registered trademark of LXI Consortium, Inc.
SSI
Synthetic Stimulus Instrument
Textron Systems' -150 SSI is the next-generation SSI (Synthetic Stimulus Instrument). The -150 SSI is a phase-coherent, wide-band direct-digital synthesizer (DDS), which provides 500 MHz of instantaneous bandwidth to enable threat generation of today’s most complex emitters. The two modes of operation allow users to generate 2 MPPS in radar mode or 20 simultaneous communication emitters per -150 SSI, creating a dense, complex and realistic environment for test and evaluation.
- Signal generation for A2PATS® (up to 8 SSIs per port)
- Can generate up to 4 continuous wave signals simultaneously
- Controls all signals in amplitude, phase and time
- Full frequency chirp capable
