1. Through the up-conversion, filtering, and amplification, the IF signal is converted into the
RF signal and then sent to the AMP amplifier unit.
2. The AMP amplifies the RF signal (the output power of the signal can be controlled by the
IDU software).
3. After the amplification, the RF signal is sent to the antenna through the diplexer.
The O&M uplink signal is a 5.5 MHz ASK-modulated signal and is demodulated in the CTRL
