Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of KU-band LNB technology, specifically a dual-polarized KU-band LNB with 3-channel DCSS output and 1-channel Legacy output. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, traditional satellite LNBs typically employ single-polarized or dual-polarized analog signal output, supporting only a single user or signal distribution via multiple cables. This results in complex wiring, high costs, and an inability to meet the needs of multiple users simultaneously receiving different programs. With the development of satellite communication technology, digital satellite receiving systems are becoming increasingly common. However, existing LNBs still have significant shortcomings in digital signal processing capabilities, multi-user compatibility, and signal transmission efficiency. For example, traditional LNBs require separate coaxial cables for each receiver, leading to cumbersome installation and material waste. While some digital LNBs support multiple outputs, they lack compatibility with traditional analog signals, limiting the flexibility of user equipment. Furthermore, existing LNBs still have room for improvement in signal processing bandwidth, noise suppression, and multi-band output capabilities, making it difficult to meet the high-density, high-efficiency signal transmission requirements of modern satellite communication systems. Therefore, those skilled in the art have proposed a dual-polarized KU-band LNB with three DCSS outputs and one Legacy output to address the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

[0046] The horizontal polarization input is connected in sequence to the FET1 and FET3 RF amplifier circuits, forming two paths.

[0049] Working principle
[0050] The signal is input through waveguide port 7, and first undergoes low-noise amplification processing through horizontally polarized preamplifier and vertically polarized preamplifier. The output signal is split into two paths: one path is connected to the analog signal postamplifier, and then connected to the phase-locked loop frequency reduction integrated circuit, and output through F-head 5; the other path is connected to DCSSIC and output through F-head 5.
[0051] The pre-amplifier receives satellite signals from 10.7-12.75 GHz. After passing through horizontally polarized and vertically polarized low-noise amplifiers, the amplified signals are split into two paths. One path is provided to the PLL phase-locked loop down-conversion integrated circuit 11, which outputs an intermediate frequency (IF) signal of 950-2150 MHz. The other path is provided to the DCSSIC, which uses a fast wideband analog-to-digital converter to digitize the IF signal. Then, through digital signal processing technology, the signals from multiple satellite transponders are selected, up-converted, and stacked, packaging the signals into 30 UBs for output with an output frequency of 750 MHz-2350 MHz.
[0052] This product features three digital signal processing (DCSS) output ports and one traditional analog signal processing output port. This allows multiple users to share satellite signals via a single coaxial cable, enabling the transmission of signals from multiple users over a single cable. The analog signal processing utilizes a PLL (phase-locked loop) circuit for down-conversion, providing a high-quality intermediate frequency (IF) signal to the satellite receiver. This allows users to receive signals via DCSS while also being compatible with traditional reception methods. Traditional satellite signal transmission requires separate cabling for each receiver, while the DCSSLNB employs a single-cable solution, requiring only one coaxial cable to distribute satellite signals to multiple user terminals. This significantly reduces cabling workload and costs, making it particularly suitable for multi-room, multi-user home or commercial environments. This new LNB has 30 receiver plugs (UBs), supporting a large number of user terminals simultaneously receiving satellite signals, meeting the needs of multiple users watching different programs on different satellite receivers at the same time.
