RT Logic's T400TSS Waveform Signal Generator Available
Colorado Springs, CO - RT Logic, a wholly owned subsidiary of Integral Systems, Inc. recently announced the availability of its Waveform Signal Generator product, the Telemetrix 400TSS (T400TSS). RT Logic's T400TSS is a modular, software- defined telemetry simulator and signal generator.
The T400TSS's flexible architecture supports many different missions, including testing telemetry subsystems within satellite ground stations, missile and satellite factories, and calibration laboratories, as well as command generation. The output frequency ranges include L- and S-Band RF, 70 MHz IF, and baseband telemetry and/or command data.
The T400TSS signal modulator supports virtually all popular commercial and Government telemetry (and command) signal waveforms including FM, PM, FSK, BPSK, QPSK, OQPSK (SQPSK), and SOQPSK (MIL-STD and TG). Frequency sweeping enables receiver testing against simulated dynamics. Variable output amplitudes enable testing of acquisition and lock thresholds, AGC (Automatic Gain Control) performance, and fading performance. A built-in BER (Bit Error Rate) tester with clock and data inputs, is included for standalone testing of telemetry receivers. RT Logic down converters and demodulation software/firmware are optionally available to support return link processing for loop-back or BER testing.
The T400TSS is the newest member of RT Logic's powerful line of link simulation test equipment. The T400TSS can be combined with the T400CS, T400MSP, and the T400SE to simulate and analyze virtually any space communication situation.
"The modular architecture of the system and the software-defined nature of its signal processing allow the T400TSS to support both legacy and new telemetry simulation applications with little or no new development," commented Matt Langenbahn, Project Manager in the RF and Communications Products group. "This provides our customers with an economical solution that avoids obsolescence with the advent of new waveforms in the future."
