Data / Image Acquisition Ground Stations |
|
|
| THE
FastScan Direct Data Capture System was developed for the Radarsat
Program. The major capabilities of the system are: - frame synchronizing remote sensing satellite downlink data; - moving window display and image storage; - data output to a Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) |
|
|
| The Remote
Sensing GroundStation is a low-cost, turnkey system for fixed and
transportable stations. If needed the system can be configured to include a generic data path switch that allows automatic control of the analog and digital paths in the system-Generic Data Switching System (GDSS). The Direct Data Capture feature replaces the need for High Density Data Recorders and is capable of processing data at rates in excess of 200Mbps. The system is designed to operate primarily in automatic mode. A station control computer accepts batch command controls for the other sub-systems to effectively minimize manpower involvement |
