13 Bit Barker Coded 30Mz IF AND ( 2.1 TO 3.7GHz) LO Generation {( Hardware Required Setup )}

Hi 

I hope you are all doing good. I want to generate two singals and then modulate them to get another signal.

 

 

One Signal is IF with 30 Mhz RF, Period  of 4ms and Pulse width 13 bit barker coded having time period of 6us. Amplitude of 2V or 16dBm.

 

Another Signal with 2.700Mz to 3100 Mhz and Pulse width 13 bit barker coded having time period of 6us.Amplitude of 5-100mVolt.

 

After there generation I want to modulate these two signals and get resultant RF singal. I need help in deciding hardware which will support 13 Barker coded singals. Kindly help if any VI which have 13 bit barker ecoded signal generatio. I have attached picture also of desired signal. I will appreciate the reply. I have to then purchase 100 to 200 URSPS or relevent hardware after these signals get generated.

Hi,

 

I believe this is possible using various RF products that NI offers. Depending on the specifics of your test, it may make sense to pursue the NI USRPs or the PXI RF equipment, which is better suited for a high throughput test application.

 

What is the need for such a large number of RF devices? Are you hoping to test DUTs in a high throughput environment? Are you more focused on varying the signal that you generate and testing different transmission methods and frequencies? What further context can you provide about your application?

I have attached the information about signals.

One is IF signal 30Mhz, pulse period 4ms,pw 6us,13but barker coded.

Amplitude 2V 

Another is Lo signal 2600Mhz to 3100Mhz ,Amplitude of 5 to 100mV. Pulse width 4ms, PW or On time 6us.

After these signals are generated I have to mix these signal for modulation and resultant signal will be out.

 

I want to know which USRP will allow to generate all these three signals. I have to make a RF lab after generation of these signals. 200  to 300 equipments will purchased. I want help in this project. I want to know which USRP will be used. I have 5644R vst but its expensive to purchse 300VSTS. I want to do it on USRP.I have attached image which contains specifications of signals.

Hi,

 

Are you synchronizing these devices in any way?

 

The highest performance USRPs from NI are currently the USRP-295Xr models. Are you able to speak with a sales engineer from National Instruments? It would not be recommended to make such a large purchase off of our website, in the case that there is hardware better suited for your application, or a more cost effective approach.
