Text Box: Functional Description
 
The Model ASC300Ku-I Series Beacon Receiver is a high performance self contained unit that is designed to real time track the power density of a satellite beacon and output a DC voltage that is linearly proportional to the beacon power by utilizing a true, RMS-responding power detector. The ASC300-Ku-I will tune over any of the three primary Ku band satellites (10.7-11.70 GHz, 11.70-12.75 GHz) by utilizing an internal block down converter. The  frequency band must be customer specified. The applications for the Models ASC300Ku1-I and the ASC300Ku2-I are for antenna tracking controllers and uplink power control system.
