Product Description
The DMPA 2200 is designed to operate as a final amplification stage for a terrestrial S-band transmitter or repeater system. It amplifies an input S-Band signal to a digital average output power level of 50 Watts while maintaining its linear characteristics. The DMPA 2200 architecture is an LDMOS based solid-state design operating in Class A/AB linear mode over a frequency range of 2100 MHz to 2300 MHz. The amplifier is fully protected against input overdrive, overheating and output load VSWR conditions. The protection circuits are all self-correction, allowing the amplifier to be restored to its normal operating state upon removal of the fault condition. The DMPA 2200 incorporates an internal automatic self-levelling loop to maintain constant gain over the life of the equipment. The automatic level control (ALC) circuit will compensate for the input signal level variations and the gain variations caused by changes in temperature as well as for the gain change due to devices ageing. Depending on the application, the amplifier can be configured to operate in AGC mode, maintaining a constant
gain value.
The amplifier’s operational parameters are monitored and controlled by an embedded system controller that can be accessed from the RS232 interface using the GUI software provided. The DMPA 2200 is a field-replaceable system component that includes an integrated AC/DC power supply and is designed for indoor installation. All of the amplifier’s components are enclosed in a standard 19” rack mount chassis, occupying only “2RU” of cabinet space. The amplifier is forced air-cooled using four high-performance fans, which are installed on the amplifier enclosure front panel.
