Its Mostly About The Receiver - Some Terms

Bandwidth, Dynamic Range and Signal to Noise Ratio

Not to Scale

•Bandwidth – tools to limit your receiver so it “hears” only

what you want to hear and to protect it from overload

•Mostly about filters

•Dynamic Range –the difference between the loudest and

the weakest signal you rig can handle

•Want to maximize Dynamic Range for the target signal

•Mostly about adjusting for optimum RF gain and

operation of Automatic Gain Controls

•Signal to Noise Ratio –the relative power between the signal

you are trying to hear (good) and noise/interference (bad)

•Noise reduction processors to reduce noise along with

proper use of other controls

Filtering

•Filters limit Bandwidth to reject unwanted signals, preventing them from

adversely effecting performance

•The Automatic Gain Control (AGC) System attempts to maximize Dynamic

Range within Weak Signal Receiver Stages

•Critical to maintain linearity to prevent distortion products

•DSP Adaptive Filters are use to reduce noise which improves S/N Ratio

(Pre)

Its Mostly About The Receiver

Basic Receiver Elements (Direct Sampling ex. IC-7300)

•Most filtering, all noise reduction and signal detection

steps are performed digitally

•AGC System must maximize A/D converter resolution for

the desired signal

•Many possible sources of non-linearity are eliminated

•A/D Converter Resolution and Oscillator Phase Noise become the

main performance limiters

•Digital processing speed and algorithm performance also matter

Controls to Optimize Weak Signals

Not to Scale

•Filters Limit Bandwidth and optimize adjacent signal rejection

•RF Gain Control, Preamp/Attenuator, and AGC Time Constant settings

optimize Dynamic Range

•Adaptive Noise Filtering is used to reduce noise; improving S/N Ratio

Using Your Filters

Not to Scale

Minimize Noise BW/Interference:

•Roofing Filters – typically “fixed” BW

filters applied before IF stages

•DSP filters –Digital Signal Processing

after IF stages

•Both are realized in Digital Processor

of the IC-7300
