The state-of-the-art Ka-band Earth Exploration Satellite Service (EESS) downconverter HW-02145AxAA is specifically designed for the high data rate throughput in Earth Observation satellite missions. The minimum amplitude variation and group delay variation are provided over the complete 700MHz operational bandwidth resulting in the least BER degradation contribution. In addition, the phase noise performance is the best available on the market.
antwerpspace The Antwerp Space N.V. policy is one of continuous development and improvement, consequently the equipment may vary in detail from the description and specification in this publication. Doc. ref.: AS-SPE-110138-03-00
Ka-Band Downconverter Main Functionality The HW-02145 series of downconverters operating in the Ka-EESS band offer the best quality and performance available on the market: ff Synthesized downconverter. ff Converts any 700MHz channel in the EESS 25.5-27GHz band to L-band. ff Highly increased level of design modularity, resulting in very high reliability and very low spurious behavior. ff Automatic 10 or 100MHz external reference switchover. ff RF, IF and internal LO monitoring ports are available.
