Digital pulse compression module CI F07 Dual Expander To make an enquiry please email: [email protected] Product description CI F07 unit includes two digital pulse expander channels housed in a single unit. The pulse expander generates a frequency coded pulse, also called a chirp. Pulse output is IF analog. CI F07 may be customized by Rakon to generate linear or non linear chirps. CI F07 may be used as a replacement of existing SAW based pulse expander to overcome device obsolescence or enhance RADAR performances. CI F07 behavior and performances are reproducible from one unit to the other. No matching is needed. Rakon will customize pulse expander chirp according to the characteristics requested by the customer (Chirp duration, bandwidth, chirp slope …). The unit is provided with FPGA firmware loaded, including pulse expander waveforms. Dual channel pulse expander unit Two Selectable Waveforms for each channel High precision clock BITE function High Time dispersion.

Digital pulse compression module CI F07 Dual Expander Technical description CI F07 functional block diagram is featured on Fig. 1. Fig. 1 : CI F07 functional block diagram Unit description. The internal low noise system clock is locked on an external clock (derived from the RADAR system clock). For proper operation, the clock should be a good quality clock, with a low phase noise close to the carrier. CI F07 unit is provided with FPGA firmware loaded. Functions, and channels specifications (time dispersion, bandwidth…) should be provided by customer; Rakon will customize the FPGA program to fulfill...
