RT Logic, a wholly owned subsidiary of Integral Systems, Inc. has unveiled their Waveform Signal Generator product, the Telemetrix 400TSS (T400TSS). RT Logic’s T400TSS is a modular, software-defined telemetry simulator and signal generator. The output frequency ranges include L- and S-band RF, 70 MHz IF, and baseband telemetry and/or command data. The T400TSS signal modulator supports virtually all popular commercial and Government telemetry (and command) signal waveforms including FM, PM, FSK, BPSK, QPSK, OQPSK (SQPSK), and SOQPSK (MIL-STD and TG). Frequency sweeping enables receiver testing against simulated dynamics. Variable output amplitudes enable testing of acquisition and lock thresholds, AGC (Automatic Gain Control) performance, and fading performance. A built-in BER (Bit Error Rate) tester with clock and data inputs, is included for standalone testing of telemetry receivers. RT Logic down converters and demodulation software/firmware are optionally available to support return link processing for loop-back or BER testing. The T400TSS is the newest member of RT Logic’s link simulation test equipment. The T400TSS can be combined with the T400CS, T400MSP, and the T400SE to simulate and analyze virtually any space communication situation—Colorado Springs, Colorado
