The advanced ACE9600 channel emulator is a state-of-the-art solution for emulating RF channels off-air. Emulated distortions include delay, Doppler effect, attenuation, phase shift, AWGN, frequency jumps, payload, and multipath fading. The device can support up to four channels with an instantaneous bandwidth of 600 MHz. Distortion emulation can be set to fixed values in static mode or continuously varied in real-time in dynamic mode without phase discontinuities.
Features and Benefits 600 MHz instantaneous bandwidth per channel Time synchronization for up to 16 channels Link emulation including: Continuous phase delay, Doppler effect, and attenuation changes AWGN and Eb/No 12-port (path) multipath fading using Rayleigh, Rician, and CW models. Arrival angle (AOA), k-factor, and correlation control. Flexible RF frequency converters Payload emulation including: Amplitude and group delay distortions IMUX/OMUX Amplifier compression (AM/AM and AM/PM) Phase noise Static and dynamic link emulation Generation of ephemeris data via SATGEN Remote device control via ACEClient app
