AMC - Software Defined Radio

AMC-SDR AMC-SDR

The Signalion SDR Wide Range RF module SRRM combines a complete tunable RF transceiver with digital base band interface for realization of different wireless communication systems. This standard compliant AMC module rev2.0 consists of:

RF frontend module (FEM) for field & laboratory use,

the RF transceiver part, and

a digital frontend which offers different standard network interfaces.

The transceiver is seamless tunable in the range between 200MHz up to 2.7GHz. Variable channel band-widths up to 20MHz are supported. As base band interfaces GbE, PCIe and sRIO can be used. Additional base band interfaces are CPRI or OBSAI and accessible via either SFP-modules at front panel or serial high speed ports in the extended options region of the AMC-connector.

Application

Single module full size AMC SDR radio card which supports different communication standards (LTE, UMTS, GSM, DVB, V/UHF …) and different frequency bands.
