SDR-KIT 980B is designed to integrate 9.8 GHz X-band software-defined radio (SDR) transmitter-receiver systems with the processor module SDR-PM 402 for various applications. Ancortek’s SDR processor module SDR-PM 402 is compatible with this SDR-RF 980B module. The graphic user interface software SDR-GUI is able to activate this radio frequency (RF) module, select operation parameters, and collect data; the SDR-GUI controls the configuration of the SDR Evaluation Kit via a USB 2.0 cable. Digital samples of control voltage are generated by the field-programmable gate array (FPGA) firmware and are then converted to analog control voltage that directly feeds the voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO). The output of the mixer in the receive chain is digitized and streamed to host computer for real-time processing.
The SDR evaluation kit includes one SDR-RF 980B module, one SDR-PM 402 processor module, one copy of the SDR-GUI graphical user interface software, one AC/DC power adapter (5 V, 3.0 A), one mini USB retractable cable, one pair of RF cables, and one pair of the transmitting and receiving antennas. Additionally featured are FMCW/FSK/CW waveforms, wide bandwidth up to 400 MHz (9.6GHz-10.0GHz), output power >17 dBm, low power consumption, suppression of cooling-fan interference, and onboard automatic correction of voltage-controlled oscillator nonlinearity.
