3. The use of Xilinx Artix7 series FPGA reduces power consumption by 7A100T, which has more abundant resources. Both 7A100T and 7A200T are fully compatible with B210, but the FPGA logic scale is different.
4. Supports external clock taming, PPS/10M reference frequency synchronization, and PPS phase synchronization
5. Adopting USB 3.0 TypeC interface
6. The output PA has been replaced with the ADI model (using 5V power supply to convert the energy lost by the original 3.3V PA on the LDO)
Main technical indicators
1. Frequency range: 70MHz~6GHz
2. Maximum sampling rate 61.44MHz
3. Supports up to 2R2T for transmission and reception, with AD/DA quantization bits of 12 bits
3. The transmission power shows significant attenuation above 5GHz, with a maximum of around 2dBm at 6GHz, 15dBm at 1GHz, and greater than 10dBm at 2.4GHz.
4. OAI testing uses commercial UE in the N78 frequency band, with a range of around 125M for downstream and 24M for upstream
Good helper for learning and scientific research\
1. Combining Matlab for algorithm validation
2. Use SDAngel, SDR #, etc. to listen to radios, receive ADS-B, AIS DVB-T, and increase interest
3. Using Gnuraido for spectrum detection or vector signal generation
4. Using UHD programming interface to complete the development of product functions
5. Conduct mobile communication experiments using OAI and SRSRAN
Working Principle:
- AD9361 is a highly integrated RF transceiver chip launched by Analog Devices (ADI), supporting 2X2MIMO applications. The transmission or reception of I/Q data is reprocessed by the DSP implemented by FPGA and sent to the host or AD9361. The FPGA also converts the data format, packages I/Q data frames, and communicates with the UHD driver running on the host through the USB3.0 bus.
Features:
- B210mini supports dual channel simultaneous reception and transmission, i.e. 2X2MIMO support.
- MIMO (Multiple Input, Multiple Output) is a wireless communication technology that uses multiple antennas to simultaneously transmit and receive data, improve data rate, system capacity, resist interference and fading, expand coverage, and achieve spatial multiplexing. It is suitable for mobile communication fields such as LTE, WiFi, 5G, etc.
- The integration of 0.5PPM VCTCXO on the board can achieve GPS signal simulation and 4G/5G base station experiments without the need for expensive GPSDO clock sources.
- Equipped with a built-in clock PLL, it facilitates the input of external 10MHz and 1PPS synchronization signals.
- Tune within the frequency range of 50MHz to 6GHz, with a maximum real-time processing bandwidth of 56MHz signal.
- USB 3.0 high-speed interface.
- The onboard Artix-7 100T FPGA 100000 Logic Cells support personalized development.
