Setup of hardware with requirements

hardware setup

  • PC with python installed
  • Software Defined Radio used the hardware LimeSDR with frequency range from 100 kHz up to 3,8 GHz
  • Pre-Amplifier is the BGY587B in use. It is designed to operate from a few kHz to to 550 MHz.
  • Power Amplifier for use up to 100W. It is designed to operate from 75 MHz to to 140 MHz.
  • Transcoupler is selected to operate from 80 MHz to 140 MHz.
  • Directional Coupler is designed to operate from 20 MHz to 800 MHz.
  • Sample Coil with Tuning and Matching Network
  • Low Noise Amplifier is selected to operate from 50 MHz to 4 GHz.

The following figure shows all components up to the PC to control the system. all components Additional a detailed view of the SDR and its near periphery. SDR and Periphery
