CyberRadio Solutions offers the NDR308, a standalone 8-channel wideband digital tuner that converts the VHF/UHF spectrum to digital intermediate frequency (IF) data over 10 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. It includes eight independent tuners that cover the 20 to 3,000 MHz frequency range with 40 MHz bandwidth. Each channel can tune independently or the tuners can operate phase-coherently.
The NDR308 includes an FPGA-based digital processor board that receives eight channels of wideband data, performs narrowband filter and decimation, forms time-stamped digital IF data packets, and transmits streaming data over the two 10 Gigabit Ethernet output ports; the dual output ports support 8 by 40 MHz bandwidth data streaming.
To enable geolocation applications, the NDR308 includes an embedded GPS receiver, an external 1 PPS input, and time-tagged digital IF data formatted based on the VITA-49 standard. The NDR308 can be grouped together with additional units to support 16-, 24-, or 32-channel low size, weight, and power (SWaP) phase coherent systems. The unit is packaged in a ruggedized aluminum chassis providing RF shielding, thermal management, and physical protection. It is powered via an external +12 Volt DC power supply and controlled via a 10/100 Ethernet interface.
