CHAPTER 2

2.0 GENERAL INFORMATION

2.1 RX-400A RECEIVER PURPOSE AND FUNCTION

The TEN-TEC RX-400A is an all m de, wide RF c verage, HF/VHF/UHF receiver that

delivers military-grade perf rmance in a C mmercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) pr duct. The

unit is designed t pr vide signal acquisiti n, m nit ring and c llecti n functi ns using

manual tuning, frequency scan r directed search mem ry channel m des f perati n.

The RX-400A c vers the frequency range f 100kHz t 3000 MHz using a mix f high

perf rmance anal g circuitry f r the RF t IF c nversi n path c upled t a digital back-

end c mprised f the latest digitizer and DSP techniques t pr vide a s ftware defined

receiver. The DSP secti n pr vides 27 digital IF filters fr m 100Hz t 300kHz and AM,

FM, USB, LSB and CW detecti n m des. Other than a p wer ON/OFF switch,

headph ne jacks, v lume c ntr l and status indicat rs, the receiver has a blank fr nt

panel, thus is designed f r rem te c ntr l perati n. Rem te c ntr l is via a

c mpani n RCU-400A Receiver C ntr l Unit r via a h st/PC using an pti nal Graphical

User Interface (GUI) s ftware package.

Figure 2-1 RX-400A, Fr nt View

All interface t the Receiver is via rear panel c nnect rs f r p wer, RF input, IF utputs,

line audi utput, external reference input and rem te c ntr l. The rear panel als

c ntains a dip-switch t set the receiver c nfigurati n t perati nal r firmware update

m des.

2-1 PN 74446

Figure 2-2 RX-400A, Rear Panel View

The RX-400A c ntains separate signal paths f r HF and VHF/UHF frequency bands. The

HF secti n c vers the 100kHz t 88 MHz range. The VHF/UHF fr nt-end c vers the

range fr m 88 MHz t 3000 MHz. A single RF input c nnect r is used t c ver b th

ranges. Internal firmware c mmands aut matically switch between the HF and

VHF/UHF pre-select r secti ns based n tuned frequency.

During HF perati n signals entering the HF c nverter secti n first pass thr ugh a user

adjustable step attenuat r t enhance receiver perf rmance by reducing interference

caused by receive verl ad in the presence f extremely large signal levels enc untered

in the HF frequency d main. The attenuat r is f ll wed by multiple p le RF filters (pre-

select r) t eliminate p tential interference fr m ut- f-band signals.

F r VHF/UHF perati n the received signals are r uted t the high band pre-select r

which c ntains switched filter sets t c ver sub- ctave ranges between 88 and 3000

MHz. F r ther than U.S. G vernment, U.S. Military r appr ved f reign g vernment

use the RX-400A will n t pr vide c verage f the vari us cellular teleph ne bands.

The 2 Receiver IF utputs, WBIF 1 and WBIF 2, pr vide wideband IF signals f r use

with auxiliary analysis equipment such as IF pan signal m nit rs and IF-Tape

c nverters. The IF center frequency is 21.4 MHz with a bandwidth f 2 MHz bel w a

tuned frequency f 20 MHz. Fr m a tuned frequency f 20 t 3000 MHz the IF

bandwidth is 6 MHz.
