Beacon Receiver

Model:YT-B-01

Product Features:

  • Beacon tracking
  • Amplitude (Max.) tracking
  • Highly integrated
  • Adjustable capture width
  • Capture time: 3ms
  • High extendibility

Product Overview:

Model YT-B-01 Beacon Receiver is integrated in one board, which has the features like wide band width, high sensibility and big dynamic range etc. It is mainly used to demodulate the satellite signals down converted to L band from C, Ku and Ka bands. AGC voltage and Lock Signal can be demodulated and offered to ACU, controlling the antenna to point to the satellite accurately.

This model adopts the most advanced technology, and it has small size, high performance, low cost and can be used widely. It also has great extendibility in functions; the RCA interface can be either extended two channels or added an emitting channel. And it also can be used as a BD receiver.

This model is mainly used in satellite communications, such as SOTM, Take-away Antenna, Satellite Ground Station, Emergency Communication and TVRO etc.
