milstar: 1941: First (vacuum tube) op-amp An op-amp, defined as a general-purpose, DC-coupled, high gain, inverting feedback amplifier, is first found in US Patent 2,401,779 "Summing Amplifier" filed by Karl D. Swartzel Jr. of Bell labs in 1941. This design used three vacuum tubes to achieve a gain of 90dB and operated on voltage rails of ±350V. ###################################################### It had a single inverting input rather than differential inverting and non-inverting inputs, as are common in today's op-amps. Throughout World War II, Swartzel's design proved its value by being liberally used in the M9 artillery director designed at Bell Labs. ######################################################################### This artillery director worked with the SCR584 radar system to achieve extraordinary hit rates (near 90%) that ####################################################################### would not have been possible otherwise.[3] ########################### http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operational_amplifier

milstar: http://dsp-book.narod.ru/skolnik/7913X_03b.pdf 3.11 ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL CONVERTER Applications. Analog-to-digital converters find numerous applications in modern radar systems. The trend toward digital processing of radar data has resulted in a demand for fast converters that are able to convert data in real time. Digital MTI is an example of a technique requiring such high-speed converters. Here, the synchronous-detector output is sampled at a rate not less than the receiver bandwidth, and the digital result is stored in a large digital memory. Data is read from the memory to allow comparison with corresponding returns from subsequent radar "looks." The flexibility of this method has permitted MTI velocity response characteristics previously unobtainable with analog memory devices. Many tracking radars use a converter to encode the echo in the tracking gate. In this case, a general-purpose computer provides all computations required to track a target and to provide range and velocity outputs. Precise data-smoothing and stabilizing characteristics are provided by the computer. High-speed converters have been used to encode the height information from a stacked-beam radar. This permits an arithmetic interpolation of target position. Errors following conversion are, of course, eliminated. Another application of converters is in the field of digital recording. This is used where vast quantities of data are to be analyzed or where an isolated event is to be analyzed. In this case, the encoded data is stored on magnetic tape. The results are then analyzed in nonreal time with arithmetic accuracy.

milstar: Performance Characteristics Signal Bandwidth. The digital data used by the terminal equipment is always sampled. The bandwidth of this "digital signal" is limited to half the sampling frequency. Resolution. The resolution of a converter is determined by the number of bits. For an TV-bit converter, the resolution is Emax/(2^ - 1) if the converter is truly monotonic, that is, if its response to an analog ramp is a uniform progression of binary numbers. This characteristic is usually realized with a slowly changing analog input but must be verified under pulsed conditions. Dynamic Range. If the A/D converter is sampling the two components of the echo vector (/ and Q), each component contains half of the noise power and up to 100 percent of the signal power. The dynamic range is the maximum IF signalto- noise ratio which can be handled by the A/D converter without saturating at any phase condition. Dynamic range (dB) = 67V - 9 - 20 log (o/LSB) (3.28) where N = number of bits including sign cr = rms noise in / or Q LSB = least-significant-bit voltage

milstar: numbers introduces an added random error which can be considered as an additional source of noise, requiring an increase in echo strength to achieve the desired detection probability if false-alarm probability is maintained constant. Quantization loss (dB) = 10 log [l + ( M °" - LSB (3-29) L \ CT / J Sampling. When the signal bandwidth is so great that the analog voltage changes significantly from sample to sample, the instantaneous signal may become distorted by the sampling process.15 A slewing error results when the exponential charging is incomplete. An entirely separate lag error results from changes in signal amplitude during the sampling interval. Current flows in the storage capacitor, causing an IR drop, which is still present when the switch is opened. An additional error is introduced by the finite opening time of the switch. The signal tends to be averaged over this interval, and the sampled voltage does not correspond exactly to the voltage at the instant when the switch starts to open. The time required to open the switch is sometimes called the aperture time. Design data specifying the slewing and lag errors is presented in Fig. 3.21. Practical circuits having RC time constants of 3 ns and sampling intervals of 50 ns have been used in high-speed A/D conversion. The resultant slewing error is seen to be less than 0.001 percent, and, at a signal frequency of 0.5 MHz, the lag error is 0.46 percent. It should be emphasized that large sampling errors are not always fatal in a radar system. For example, in an MTI radar the error will repeat from one interpulse period to the next in stationary clutter, and it is therefore removed by subtraction in the canceler. http://dsp-book.narod.ru/skolnik/7913X_03b.pdf

milstar: When Oversampling and Averaging Will Work The effectiveness of oversampling and averaging depends on the characteristics of the dominant noise sources. The key requirement is that the noise can be modeled as white noise. Please see Appendix B for a discussion on the characteristics of noise that will benefit from oversampling techniques. Key points to consider are [2] [3]: • The noise must approximate white noise with uniform power spectral density over the frequency band of interest. • The noise amplitude must be sufficient to cause the input signal to change randomly from sample to sample by amounts comparable to at least the distance between two adjacent codes (i.e.,1 LSB - please see Equation 5 in Appendix A). • The input signal can be represented as a random variable that has equal probability of existing at any value between two adjacent ADC codes. Note: Oversampling and averaging techniques will not compensate for ADC integral non-linearity (INL). http://www.eetindia.co.in/ARTICLES/2003JUN/A/2003JUN19_AMD_PD_AN.PDF?SOURCES=DOWNLOAD Noise that is correlated or cannot be modeled as white noise (such as noise in systems with feedback) will not benefit from oversampling techniques. Additionally,if the quantization noise power is greater than that of natural white noise (e.g.,ther mal noise),then oversampling oversampling and averaging will not be effective. This is often the case in lower resolution ADC’s. The majority of applications using 12- bit ADC’s can benefit from oversampling and averaging.

A buffered front-end simplifies external circuit design, and fast sampling means up to four can be used together for 4Gsample/s and 2GHz bandwidth. "The only devices that come close are also ours, and they sample at 500Msample/s," TI spokesman Heinz-Peter Beckemeyer told Electronics Weekly. Test and measurement, radar, and signal jamming are the target applications, ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- rather than phones or infrastructure. The monolithic devices, made on the TI's BiCom3 silicon-on-insulator process, are $775 in 100 unit quantities. Signal to noise ratio (S/N) is 57dB and "almost flat from DC to 2GHz," said Beckemeyer. Like its 500Msample/s ADS5463 predecessor, architecturally the 5400 is a pipeline converter. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12 bit E2V i National folding interpolating National posle 23 sent .2011 prinadlezit TI ---------------------------------------------------- "You design the individual stages according to what you optimise: signal to noise, or power," said Beckemeyer. "Our challenge was to keep power in the 2.0-2.5W range. The resulting S/N is 10dB better than anything you will find on the market." Sampling with a single 5400 at 1GHz means DC to 500MHz coverage. Power is around 2.2W. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Preceded by bandpass filter, the device can also be used to under-sample, covering 500MHz-1GHz, 1.0-1.5GHz, or 1.5-2.0GHz. Spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) is, according to Beckemeyer, 77-78dB at DC, 72-73dB at 1GHz, and in the 60dB range at 2GHz. Sample-and-hold and analogue bandwidth are sufficient to cover DC-2GHz in one go by running four converters in parallel. On-chip hardware allows two or four devices to be interleaved. ------------------------------------------------ "Generally interleaving will generate spurs in the spectrum. ######################################## This converter has gain, phase and amplitude adjustments to remove the spurs," said Beckemeyer. These adjustments can also be used for balancing ADCs in an I/Q receiver Other features include user-selectable single or dual-bus LVDS outputs, allowing a choice between I/O speed and pin-count. Operation is specified from -40 to 85°C, and the package is a 16x16mm thermally-enhanced,100 pin TQFP.

Table 5.1 shows the range of parameters that can be observed as a function of radar mode. The parameter ranges listed are PRF, pulse width, duty cycle, pulse compression ratio, independent frequency looks, pulses per coherent processing interval (CPI), transmitted bandwidth, and total pulses in a Time-On-Target (TOT). Obviously, most radars do not contain all of this variation, but modes exist in many fighter aircraft, which represent a good fraction of the parameter range. Most fighter radars are frequency agile since they will be operated in close proximity to similar or identical systems. The frequency usually changes in a carefully controlled, completely coherent manner during a CPI.8 This can be a weakness for certain kinds of jamming since the phase and frequency of the next pulse is predictable. Sometimes to counter- act this weakness, the frequency sequence is pseudorandom from a predetermined set with known autocorrelation properties, for example, Frank, Costas, Viterbi, P codes.16 A major difficulty with complex wideband frequency coding is that the phase shift- ers in a phase scanned array must be changed on an intra- or inter-pulse basis greatly complicating beam steering control and absolute T/R channel phase delay. Another challenge is minimizing power supply phase pulling when PRFs and pulsewidths vary over more than 100:1 range. MFAR systems not only have a wide variation in PRF and pulsewidth but also usually exhibit large instant and total bandwidth. Coupled with the large bandwidth is the requirement for long coherent integration times. This requirement naturally leads to extreme stability master oscillators and ultra low-noise synthesizers.44 http://www.scribd.com/doc/17533868/Chapter-5-Multi-Functional-Radar-Systems-for-Fighter-Aircraft 5.12 MULTIFUNCTIONAL RADAR SYSTEMS FOR FIGHTER AIRCRAFT 1.Real beam map 0.5 -10 mgz 2.Doppler beam sharp 5-25 mgz 3.

Jitter can be split in 2 components: external jitter (due to the sources used, or potential board routing issues), and internal jitter (generated in the ADC by thermal noise on clock path, coupling with other signals, or poor power supply rejection). Therefore internal jitter is also a very important parameter of the ADC. Parameters to consider for a high speed ADC are therefore: THD, SFDR, IMD (multitone), SNR, Noise Power Ratio (for broadband application), ADC added Jitter (for 2nd Nyquist application). 3.2 Quantifier Quantifier structure choice is a key issue in the design of an ADC, specially when we are looking simultaneously for speed, accuracy and power efficiency.

Finally we retained a successively folded and interpolated architecture which offers the best trade-off between speed, accuracy and power dissipation. The MSBs are generated by a coarse cycle pointer, and are corrected in accordance with LSB’s transition in the logic part. Gain adjustment is made by controlling the bias of the reference resistor chain.

ADC Characterization Results 1) ADC Single Tone FFT Computation at 3 GS/s in 1st, 2nd and 3rd Nyquist zones At 3 GS/s in the 1st Nyquist (Fin=1495MHz, -1dBFS), an ENOB of 8.1 Bit and an SFDR of 59 dBc is achieved (Fig. 3). In the 2nd Nyquist (Fin=2995MHz, -3 dBFS), an ENOB of 8.0 Bit is still achieved, with an SFDR performance of 58 dBc (Fig. 4). With Fin=3995MHz (-3 dBFS), corresponding to the S_Band upper limit, the ENOB is still 7.7 Bit, with an SFDR of 55 dBc, and the SNR is 49.5 dBFS. The SNR roll off versus input frequency is related to the voltage noise induced by the 120 fs rms internal sampling clock jitter of the ADC. The large linearity roll off over frequency is related to the large signal dynamics of the front-end Track and Hold, which improves for smaller signals. The 0dBFS ADC Full Scale reference voltage span is 500 mV, and Full Scale input power is -2dBm if single-ended driven in 50 Щ and -5 dBm if differentially driven in 100 Щ termination. At 3 GS/s and Fin = 3 GHz, an SNR of 51 dB is achieved, leading to an FFT noise floor of: SNR + 10log(N/2) = 51dB+10log(16384)=93dB per 32K FFT bin width. The normalized noise floor in dBc/Hz at Fs=3 GS/s is 51 dB + 10log(Fs/2)=142.7dBc/Hz. Since ADC Full Scale differential input power is -5dBm, the normalized (per/Herz) Noise floor is -5dBm-143dB = -148 dBm/Herz. The ADC total noise power includes the input referred thermal noise and the voltage noise induced by time jitter. Therefore the contribution of the ADC to overall system noise figure can be calculated.

Offerors must disclose any proposed use of foreign nationals, their country of origin, and what tasks each would accomplish in the statement of work in accordance with section 3.5.b.(7) of the solicitation. OBJECTIVE: Investigate and develop Software-Defined Multi-channel Receivers to enhance X-Band radar systems performance. DESCRIPTION: Future X-Band radar systems will employ low-cost antenna array technology and digital beamforming architecture that requires multiple receiver channels. Demonstrating the utility of software defined, scalable multi-channel receiver technology that reduces cost, weight, and size while enhancing radar system flexibility and performance is the optimal goal of this research. With recent development of the state-of-the-art receiver technology coupled with high-speed computing devices, multi-channel receiver (consisting of up to 100s of channels) controlled by software may possible. The advantage of software defined multi-channel receiver is that the reconfiguration of hardware components can be done relatively quickly. The benefit of employing software defined receiver is that the implementation would rely heavily on the digital signal processing algorithm and requiring fewer hardware components. Subsequent benefits such as improvement in dynamic range, quadrature coherency, reliability, and low cost. The primary objective of this research is to investigate the feasibility of software-defined technology that offers the potential of a low-cost robust multi-channel receiver solution. The multi-channel receive takes X-Band RF signals and outputs digitized In-phase and Quadrature (I&Q) data. The receiver should cover a 25-40% operating bandwidth centered at X-Band. The receiver should cover a tunable instantaneous bandwidth of 1GHz (goal), 400MHz (threshold), with an instantaneous dynamic range of 52+ dB. The control interfaces should utilize Open System Architecture to the maximum extend possible for ease of integration within the radar systems. PHASE I: Investigate the feasibility, technical issues, and risks of developing software-defined multi-channel receiver at X-Band. Conduct computer modeling and demonstrate proof of concept implementation. The research will result in a detail report on how the software defined multi-channel receiver would be built to meet the performance while attaining the low cost and small size objective. PHASE II: Demonstrate the operation of the developed prototype software defined multi-channel receiver using low-cost components. Validate performance, cost and reliability benefits to be achieved through a prototype device. Quatify the benefits of digital signal processing implemention and approach and identify commercial radar application opportunity. PHASE III: Design and validate the software defined multi-channel receiver prototype developed in Phase II for X-Band radar systems for military and commercial applications. Work closely with missile defense agency (MDA) to target potential technology insertion and integration into MDA ballistic missile defense systems. COMMERCIALIZATION: The proposed technology has a number of related commercial applications in radio frequency (RF) sensors. Commercial radar systems, commercial RF communications systems that require software defined multi-channel receiver. REFERENCES: 1. J. H.

milstar: For example, look at US PCS of 5 MHz. If the lowest frequency were translated to 1 MHz, the highest frequency of the band would be at 6 MHz. However, if a carrier were operational at the bottom of the band (1 MHz IF frequency), the second and third harmonic would fall at 2 and 3 MHz respectively, right in the middle of the band. These harmonics definitely can disrupt calls in a wide dynamic such as GSM or AMPS. Now consider the case where the bottom frequency of the band was translated to 5.1 MHz instead of 1 MHz. The upper frequency would align with 10.1 MHz. Now a quick look at the harmonics shows that the second harmonic of 5.1 MHz would fall at 10.2 MHz, outside the band of interest. The higher the IF frequency, the more spread out the harmonics and signals of interest become. In a practical sense, the IF frequency should be as high as the ADC could reasonably process. http://www.analog.com/static/imported-files/tech_articles/371982266wideband.pdf t.e. 260-510 mhz IF/Pch dlaj 250 mhz polosi Irbis-E 510-1010 mhz dlja 500 mhz polosi NIIP AFAR
