The JetWave™ MCS-8562 Terminal LRUs are as follows:
A. FMA
The FMA includes an aperture.-
- The FMA contains an LNA for amplification of signals in the receive path.
- The FMA includes the mechanical pointing system, positioner, motors and sensors, and an
IMU to detect movement of the platform.
- The FMA accepts the transmit Ka-band signal from the BUC-HPA.
- The FMA antenna K-band receive path is amplified by the LNA, down-converted and sent to
the BUC-HPA.
- The FMA receives power from the KANDU.
- The FMA accepts the control interface from the KANDU and lets the antenna aperture report
status, BITE, and IMU position back to the KANDU.
B. BUC-HPA
Contains a BUC to convert the transmit IF frequencies (950-2000 MHz) to Ka-band frequencies
(29-31 GHz)
-
- Contains an HPA to increase the signal strength for transmission by the antenna
- Contains an RX L-band interface in which passes through from the FMA to the Modman
- Accepts 115 VAC aircraft power.
C. KANDU
Receives commands from the Modman through an Ethernet interface to configure the
antenna/BUC-HPA and reports status over this Ethernet interface.
-
- Contains the positioning algorithm to allow the pointing of the antenna with inputs from the IRU,
information from the RSSI detector in the Modman, and the IMU from the antenna.
- Provides power and control to the antenna.
- Provides control signals to the BUC-HPA through the RS-422 interface.
- Accepts 115 VAC aircraft power.
D. Modman
Is the overall controller of the system.-
- Receives and transmits information to the BUC-HPA along the IF frequency between 950-1950
MHz.
- Supplies the user interfaces to the aircraft and passengers as follows:
• The PODD interfaces provide service to the passengers through the use of Ethernet
(10/100/1000 Base T).
• The PIESD interfaces provide services to passenger entertainment devices installed on the
aircraft (in flight entertainment systems). This system uses Ethernet (10/100/1000 Base T).
