TADIRAN g,%/); . let T e l e. m a tics Tadiran Proprietary Location Systems fficati 1. General This document defines the requirements from the Modular Programmable RF unit (MPRF). The MPRF shall include the RF to Base band receiver of the base station for the TELETRAC system. The MPRF is the second generation, multichannel version, of the RSDU that was integrated in the first generation base station. The MPRF receives BPSK signals from VLU units and FSK signal from Paging transmitters and outputs corresponding base—band signals to the digital processor (CCSP). The MPRF shall support two types of BPSK signals, wide band for location signals and narrow band for massaging. The MPRF shall support paging channels of POCSAG or ReFLEX types.

The MPRF shall be functionally a multichannel receiver (quadrature down converting) ofsignals in the band—A (PSK band) 904 — 909.75 Mhz and multichannel receiver (down converting & FM demodulation) of signalis in the band—B (FSK band) 927.75 — 928 Mhz. The MPRF shall be modular unit that includes basic unit and option of receivers module connection. The functional block diagram of this unit is described in figure 2—1.

The receiver itself shall be designed as an RF enclosed unit, including shielding and connectors. The MPRF shall include two Band—A (PSK) antenna inputs (to support diversity reception) and one Band—B (FSK) antenna input. An external duplexer similar to the one in use in RSDU (adapted to the shifted FSK band) will be incorporated in one ofthe PSK inputs and the FSK antenna input and the second PSK antenna shall be connected to PSK band—pass filter only. The reference clock for the overall Base Station operation will be an OCXO with digital frequency control. All other frequencies required by the base station units will be derived from this clock. The MPRF shall include two types of PSK receivers and one type of FSK réceivers modules. The MPRF receivers module types shall be as follows. — Dual Receiver , Wide band & Narrow band PSK receiver. — Dual Narrow band PSK receiver. — FSK receiver The MPRF will be controlled by the CCSP. The MPRF shall contain a controller that will control and monitor the MPRF receivers and will be controlled by the CCSP. The CCSP will program the center frequency of each BPSK and FSK receiver. The controller will also perform diagnostics of the MPRF unit (controlled by CCSP). MPRF_RQ4.DOC: 19—Jan—97 /S.T Pg.—6
