When making critical measurements, the frequency coherence is very important whether a single or multiple unit is employed. Just like optical telescopes, the output from several receivers may be ADDED together to provide greater performance, however their frequencies must be absolutely coherent. This involves the use of a single reference for all oscillators employed throughout the receiver. Several receivers may then be connected to a single external frequency standard safe in the knowledge that their outputs will be coherent. The AR5000AC now provides this commercially required capability. The "C" version may be provided to order in either the standard AR5000 format or with two of the +3 additions of AFC, NB, and Sync AM. Specifically, the AR5000AC external 10 MHz oscillator synchronizes with the following:
1. The 1st local
2. The PLL reference and NCO clock oscillator of the 2nd local
3. Sub Carrier
4. The 3rd local (10.245 MHz) |
