Ku- Band Satellite Transceiver Introduction 1.1 Revision 9 MN/KST2000AB.IOM Description The KST-2000A/B Ku-Band satellite terminal is a high-performance, full-featured transceiver designed for outdoor operation. The converter unit controls external High Power Amplifiers (HPAs). Automatic Gain Control (AGC) from the converter input to the HPA output assures power output stability over varying conditions for up to 40W Comtech EF Data Solid-State Power Amplifier (SSPAs).
PAGE 17
Ku- Band Satellite Transceiver Introduction 1.1.2 Revision 9 MN/KST2000AB.IOM Recommended Maintenance The fans utilized by the KST SSPAs are designed for long life even in a harsh environment. They are still mechanical devices subject to wear and may need replacement after several years. Industry environments, fan shroud removal facilitates clearing the heat sink of accumulated dust. Once a year (or sooner depending on environmental conditions), the SSPA heat sink should be cleaned.

PAGE 21
Ku- Band Satellite Transceiver Introduction Revision 9 MN/KST2000AB.IOM The HPA receives the Ku-Band input from the converter and amplifies it to the user-selected level. For KST-2000A/B SSPAs of ≤ 8 Watts, prime power is supplied by the converter via the M&C cable, while SSPAs > 8 Watts require a separate power source. The output power of the SSPA is set by the user via the remote M&C or keypad, and this output is connected to the feed of the antenna via WR-75 waveguide.

Ku-Band Satellite Transceiver Operation Revision 9 MN/KST2000AB.IOM Each KST-2000A/B has built-in redundancy logic and the capability to control a TX, RX, and IF switch. The 1:1 interconnect cable designates an A Unit and a B Unit. An A Unit will become the primary interface for remote backup configuration commands. In addition, the A Unit will control the A position of the TX, RX, and IF switches; likewise the B Unit controls the B position of the TX, RX, and IF switches.

Ku-Band Satellite Transceiver Operation Revision 9 MN/KST2000AB.IOM For example: to place Unit B uplink online, the remote backup manual operation command to Unit B’s uplink will be issued. Refer to Appendix B.6. In the manual mode, as well as any other backup enabled operating mode, the switch position indicators on the RJU-2000 will indicate which uplink and downlink is online by illuminating an appropriate LED indicator.

Ku-Band Satellite Transceiver Operation 3.8.1 Revision 9 MN/KST2000AB.IOM Up Converter Description The up converter accepts a 70 MHz (140 MHz) IF input signal and translates it to an output frequency in the range of 13.750 to 14.500 GHz. The up converter consists of two modules: the IF to S-Band module and the S- to Ku-Band module. The IF to S-Band module translates the 70 MHz (140 MHz) IF input to an output frequency in the range of 2,330 to 3,080 MHz.

S to Ku-Band Up Converter Module The S- to Ku-Band up converter module (Figure 3-11) performs block up conversion of the 2330 to 3080 MHz signal input to an output in the range of 13.750 to 14.500 GHz. This is done by mixing the IF input with a fixed frequency Dielectric Resonator Oscillator (DRO), operating at 16.830 GHz.

Ku-Band Satellite Transceiver Operation 3.10 Revision 9 MN/KST2000AB.IOM L-Band to IF Down Converter Description (KST-2000A/B) The L-Band to IF down converter (Figure 3-17) accepts an RF input in the frequency range of 950 to 1700 MHz and translates it to an output of 70 (140) MHz. The RF input to this module can be supplied by the Ku to L-Band down converter housed within the KST-2000A, or from an externally mounted Low Noise Block down converter (LNB) in the KST-2000B version.

Ku-Band Satellite Transceiver Operation 3.11 Revision 9 MN/KST2000AB.IOM Automatic Gain Control (AGC) Note: AGC function only available with SSPAs of ≤ 25W. The KST-2000A/B incorporates a closed-loop Automatic Gain Control (AGC) function that maintains the system gain, as measured from the TX IF input to the Ku-Band output of the Comtech EF Data supplied SSPA, at the user’s preset value despite the effects of aging, operating temperature, or cabling loss.
PAGE 77
Ku-Band Satellite Transceiver Operation 3.11.1 Revision 9 MN/KST2000AB.IOM Operation The AGC function is implemented by using two calibrated RF detectors. • The first detector monitors the TX input (70 or 140 MHz; amplitude range of –25 to –45 dBm). The DC voltage from the detector is converted to a digital word in an A/D converter and read by the main processor. • The second detector monitors the output signal of the SSPA.

Appendix E. FSK REMOTE CONTROL COMMANDS This appendix describes the protocol and message command set for FSK Remote Control Commands used on the KST-2000A, Single-Thread Configuration. Firmware No. E.1 FW/9364-1 and FW/10303-1 Introduction Modifications have been made to the KST-2000A (herein after, referred to as the terminal) firmware and hardware to permit monitor and control from the front panel of several Comtech EF Data Satellite Modems.

Ku-Band Satellite Transceiver FSK Remote Control Commands Revision 9 MN/KST2000AB.IOM Redundant system control is not currently supported. IMPORTANT E.2 Basic Protocol All data is transmitted as asynchronous serial characters, suitable for transmission and reception by a UART. In this case, the asynchronous character format is fixed at 9600 baud. All data is transmitted in framed packets.

Ku-Band Satellite Transceiver FSK Remote Control Commands Revision 9 MN/KST2000AB.IOM They have these meanings: The ‘=’ code (target to controller) is used in two ways: 1. If the controller has sent a query code to a target (for example UFQ?, meaning ‘what’s the Uplink frequency?’), the target would respond with UFQ=xxxxx.x, where xxxxx.x represents the frequency in question. 2.
