System Architecture
1.2.1 2/4-Watt Ku-Band Configuration
! Refer to Figure 1-1, 2/4-Watt BUC Configuration. The 2-Watt & 4-Watt Ku-band BUCs have a WR75 waveguide output flange. Both units have the same overall form, fit and function with the exception of a 3dB difference in gain rated output power. The BUC is based on a simple block up conversion from L-Band (950 - 1450 MHz) to Ku-band (14.0 - 14.5 GHz) or optional off-set Ku-band (13.75 –14.25 GHz). The interface to the BUC consists of a 50 ohm coaxial cable which carries the modulated L-Band signal, a 10 MHz reference, 48 VDC (24 VDC available upon request) power, and an FSK monitor and control (M&C) link. The M&C function can be implemented via the FSK link up the IFL cable or through an independent RS-485 link. All M&C functions are microprocessor controlled. The M&C can be used to turn the BUC ON and OFF, change address, provide status information, and to monitor unit‘s output power and temperature. Both the gain and the reported power (via M&C) are calibrated over temperature and frequency to provide exceptional stability and accuracy. The BUC is equipped with a calibrated power sensor for measuring the power delivered to the antenna from rated output to 20 dB backed off. This value, in dBm, is available via the M&C for power level monitoring and AGC. The reported power accuracy is ± 1.0 dB absolute and ± 0.5 dB relative. Note: For BUC only applications, the BUC gain is adjustable in 1dB steps via the M&C port.
1.2.2 8-Watt Ku-band Configuration
! Refer to Figure 1-2, 8-Watt BUC Configuration. For applications requiring a RF output power level of 8-Watts Ku-band, an SSPA is integrated with the ODU. Note: Throughout this document the terms Booster and SSPA are interchangeable. 8W Ku Band SSPA

Ku Band ODU (2W BUC)
8-Watt Ku Band ODU (BUC) and SSPA (Booster)
Ku-Band Block Up-Converter Manual, Doc.# 3100-9902 Rev B
System Architecture The booster amplifier (SSPA) is a microwave solid state power amplifier designed to interface with a standard BUC for higher power applications. For Ku-band a 2-Watt BUC is utilized. The SSPA is GaAs FET based for highly linear operation. Both the gain and the detected power are calibrated over temperature and frequency. Control data for these functions are stored in lookup tables contained within onboard memory. A serial interface between the SSPA and the BUC provides status of the SSPA to the IDU. This interface also provides control of a digital variable attenuator in the BUC IF chain. The purpose of the digital variable attenuator is to limit excess SSPA (Booster) gain thus allowing the inter-modulation performance to be dominated by the SSPA.
1.2.3 16 Watt or Higher Configurations
! Refer to Figure 1-3, 16-Watt or higher system configurations. For applications requiring an output level of 16 Watts or higher, an SSPA is integrated with the BUC. SSPA ODU (BUC)
Figure 1-7
16-Watt or Higher Ku-Band ODU (BUC) and SSPA (Booster)
The 16-Watt through optional 30-Watt Ku-band booster amplifier (SSPA) is a microwave solid state power amplifier designed to interface with a standard 2-Watt BUC for higher power applications. The SSPA is designed for highly linear operation. Both the gain and the detected power are calibrated over temperature and frequency. Control data for these functions are stored in lookup tables contained within onboard memory. A serial interface between the SSPA and the BUC provides status of the SSPA. This interface also provides control of a variable attenuator in the BUC IF chain. The purpose of the digital variable attenuator is digital to limit excess SSPA (Booster) gain thus allowing the intermodulation performance to be dominated by the SSPA. These high power configurations require an external Power Supply to route 48 VDC to the SSPA via the MS connector on the SSPA. Paradise Datacom can provide the power supply and mating connectors as an option. A temperature out of range function ensures that the amplifier will not overheat and damage heat sensitive components. In addition, special attention has been given to the thermal design through the use of heat sinks and a cooling fan.

SSPA Power Supply (Optional)
An Optional Power Supply provides the source +48 VDC for the booster amplifier (SSPA) and BUC if necessary. The power supply is rated for 300-600Watts continuous power depending on the application. AC Power – The Power Supply is equipped with an auto ranging, variable power supply that will operate from an AC source of 110 to 230 VAC at 50 to 60 Hz. The nominal 110 VAC range is from 90 to 132 VAC. The nominal 230 VAC range is from 180 to 264 VAC. If the AC Main voltage fluctuates outside of the nominal range, system shut down will occur. If the system is converted from 110 VAC operation to 230 VAC operation, or vice versa, the system must be turned off then turned back on again to reset the power supply. The AC Fuse position on the AC Power Switch must be left in the “110-120V” position for operation at all line voltages. IMPORTANT:

BUC Monitor and Control Function
For remote operation the BUC is equipped with a monitor and control function. The M&C function contains all relevant data concerning the control and status signals of the BUC. The M&C function is realized in two manners. A modulated FSK signal is multiplexed onto the IFL cable or a separate two wire RS-485 signal.
4.1 FSK Signal 4.1.1 FSK Transmitter Frequency 650 kHz ± 5% FSK Deviation ± 60 kHz nominal (+60 kHz mark) Deviation Tolerance ± 50 kHz minimum, ± 70 kHz maximum Output Level -5 to -15 dBm Start Tone Time 10 ms minimum
4.1.2 FSK Receiver Locking Range ± 32.5 kHz Input Sensitivity -15 dBm (50 ohms) Output Level TTL
4.2 RS-485 Interface This is a two-wire half duplex Interface and is disabled upon carrier detect of an FSK signal. In order to maintain synchronization, the RS-485 receiver will reset if a message is not completed within 50 msec of initiation.
4.3 Transmission Protocol Baud Rate 9600 bps Data Bits 8 Parity none Stop Bits 1 Message Rate 1 every 40 msec BUC Response Time 12 msec, typical Maximum Response Time 40 msec
If the BUC does not respond within the maximum response time the controller should cyclically repeat the command. On power-up, the transmit carrier is off until the BUC is commanded to turn the carrier on (unless unit is commanded into the power on mode at the factory see Section 4-4). The BUC does not allow the carrier to be turned on unless the PLL is locked, and automatically turns the
4-2

BUC Monitor and Control Function
carrier off in the event the PLL goes out of lock. If the PLL then comes back into lock, the BUC restores the carrier to the most recent requested state by the IDU. The carrier enable/disable function is implemented by switching on/off the switched regulators of the BUC amplifier chains (a “sleep mode”). The BUC is equipped with a calibrated power sensor for measuring the power delivered to the antenna for rated output to 20 dB backed off. This value, in dBm, is available via the M&C for power level monitoring and AGC. The reported power accuracy is ± 1.0 dB absolute and ± 0.5 dB relative.
4.3.1 Transmission Interface Each transmitted data packet (Data Bit) consists of 7 bytes of information. The BUC only accepts a command if the first data byte contains the appropriate address. Commands are only executed if the checksum coincides, but a status response is sent if the address is correct and the command number is within the valid range. Spare bytes are always filled with hex AA (10101010) to balance the FSK.

1. Carrier Frequency: Unsigned integer in MHz. Specifiying the carrier frequency selects the appropriate temperature and RF output power calibration table. 2. Gain Level is in back off from the BUC maximum gain. The acceptable value range of 0x00 to 0x0F represents gain back off (attenuation) values of 0 to 15 dB. Note that when a BUC is used with a Booster Amplifier, the gain adjust function is disabled. In this case, the gain adjust command is simply ignored by the BUC.

4.4 Power On Mode The BUC can be put into a “power on” mode if M&C to the BUC is not available. Please contact the factory for details on setting this mode. In this state, the BUC will turn on upon applying the required voltage (48 or 24 VDC). The BUC still contains all the calibration information for both gain and power monitor. The unit defaults to the 950 MHz lookup table in the absence of a commanded frequency.

Power Supply Front Panel
The 3100 Series Power Supply is designed to mount in a standard 19-inch equipment rack or equipment cabinet. The unit occupies two rack units of vertical height and does not require forced convection cooling. The following points should be considered when planning the installation of the Power Supply: 1) The Power Supply should be located within a sheltered environment, away from sources of water, heat, extreme cold, vibration, dust or excessive electromagnetic interference (EMI). 2) The Power Supply should be secured to a stable flat surface or in a rack with adequate air circulation. If installed within an equipment enclosure, adhere to the following specifications.
" "
IDU Humidity: 5% to 95%, non-condensing. Temperature: +10° C to +40° C.
3) If the terminal is installed in a rack, L-brackets or mechanical supports should be used to support the unit. Threaded holes on the side of the Indoor Unit have been provided for this purpose. 4) For optimum operation, the IDU should be connected to a stable, conditioned AC power source and proper ground grid. An AC outlet must be installed near the equipment and easily accessible. (Per BSEN60950 Sec. 1.7.2.) 5) Eliminate conditions that could cause water to drip onto the equipment from leaking roofs, waveguide and/or cable openings in walls or roofs. 6) Bond and ground the Power Supply to the station ground bus using a #6 copper cable and clip attached to the unit rack ears. Note: The unit is not designed to be supported from the front panel. Installation by this method could result in damage.

Asynchronous
A term generally used to describe occurrences that are repetitions but do not have a constant repetition period. In communications, a data transmission format in which each character is defined with a “start bit” at its beginning and a “stop bit” at its end. This allows the receiving device to recognize, and to synchronize to each individual character in a transmission, even though the time interval between characters may vary.
