Front Ends |
| RF front ends downconvert GPS signals
to IF and then digitize them at user-specified rates. Digitized
data go either to PC RAM or to hard disk. The software receiver
uses data from the front end. The RF front end includes a
downconverter board and data-logging board. The data-logging
board mounts into the PCI slot of the host platform (PC).
Users can mount the downconverter board as a daughter card
of the data-logging board, or keep it outside the PC, using
separate enclosure with an independent power supply. |
