Abstract

In the paper the development ways of space communication links based on software define radio (SDR) are considered. Shown the practical realizations of different SDR blocks. The receiver (RX) and the transmitter (TX) graphical programs been developed and related circuits based on commercial components have produced. The transponder circuit has experimentally verified.

Цифровые каналы приема/передачи данных космических аппаратов

В статье рассматриваются варианты построения каналов приема/передачи данных космических аппаратов (КА) с использованием цифровых технологий (software define radio, SDR). Предложены конкретные варианты построения различных блоков SDR. Реализованы и проверены каналы приема/передачи данных на базе коммерческих изделий. Выполнена экспериментальная проверка характеристик каналов связи.
