Abstract
This paper describes the design and realization of an RF transmitter system capable of driving very fast modulation envelopes (12 ns - 20 ns) representative of analog signals through long coaxial cables. The transmitter employs two amplitude-modulated carriers to transmit the amplitude and the polarity of the input drive signal simultaneously, via frequency-division multiplexing over an 800 MHz spectrum in the VHF and UHF bands. Refer to separate papers1 for information regarding the damper system and its other specific components.
