V-Series Software Modem

Our cloud-based Software Modem is the ideal solution for your global ground station networks, whether on-premises, or completely cloud-based.

The V-series software modem seamlessly receive or transmit digitized RF signals from/to our Digital Converters DBDC & DBUC.

V-series software modems are fully compliant with DIFI standard to receive/transmit digitized RF signals from/to  DBDC/DBUC.

The fully software defined DVB-S2X demodulator is running on general-purpose hardware, which could replace a dedicated hardware demodulator.

Based on existing implementations and partially new designs, the dedicated exploitation of hardware-specific elements is expected in order to achieve bandwidths of 36 MHz and beyond, matching the application-specific requirements.

Key Features

• Virtualized software modems with capabilities of WORK Microwave’s A-series modems (AX/AT/AR-60/62) that supports wide range waveforms and symbol rates.
• Compliance with DVB-S2/S2X, CCSDS and ECSS standards
• Minimum 36 Msps symbol rate (higher symbol rates are optional)
• Minimum 36 MHz bandwidth support (larger bandwidths are optional)
• Support CCM, VCM and ACM
• Support Time Slicing (Annex-M ETSI EN 302 307-1)
• Full processing chain from digitized IQ samples to decoded BBFRAMEs over IP
• Web GUI, SNMP for remote control and automation purposes
• Support DIFI standard as RF over IP & cloud
• Modular design for future extension to different waveforms
• Can be customized fastly (as software based)
• Replaces dedicated hardware modems, brings modem as service model for multi-operational efficiency
• Without replacement of hardware, implementing new features and options (Multistream, multi-channel, high symbol rates)
• Designed for local and cloud deployment
• Running on CPU and/or GPU on consumer hardware platforms
• Lossless transport for IP networks with QoS (Quality of Service) and enough bandwidth.
