内容記述 | We report on the successful demonstration of antenna remoting at X-band using a low phase noise and high dynamic range fiber optic link in an operating antenna receiving system, while tracking Magellan spacecraft. The insertion of the fiber link into the existing system adds no observable degradation in noise temperature to the system. We compare the experimental results with our theoretical predictions of degradations in noise temperature and dynamic range of the system caused by the insertion of the fiber link. |
