3.3.4.6.2. Error Due to Floating Representation
The floating representation may generate an error in ���� ≤ ���� × 2
of 0.1s programming), which could have generated an error on Doppler estimation of ��(�� − ���� 2 ⁄ ) × 2
But this floating representation is converted into double, owing to rounding processing, so that this error is not
added to the previous one (provided that the programmed sampling period does not have more than 5 digits in its
fractional part).
Diversity Combining
3.3.5.
3.3.5.1. General
The CORTEX CRT Quantum allows to combine two IF signals from two different polarizations, in post-detection
or pre-detection mode. This processing is available when the IF Receivers are in Video mode (PM or FM
demodulations) or PCM mode (direct PCM demodulation).
Two operating modes are supported:
Maximum fading rates that can be tracked using the diversity combiner are:
These maximum values are determined by combining two signals derived from the same source, one with
variable SNR and one with fixed SNR, as in depicted in the graph below. Then, the maximum fade rate is defined
as the value for which the SNR of the combined signal is not worse than the SNR of channel B.
These results have been obtained in the following configurations:
