3. MARINTEK Demodulation and signal conditioning 3 Coherent homodyne approach

4. MARINTEK Quadrature demodulator 4

5. MARINTEK Baseband conditioning and ADC 5 The gain adjustments of the I and Q channel amplifiers should be coupled, and preferably be performed electronically. Initial estimations indicate a gain in the order of 10-20 dB.

9. MARINTEK Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) As a ’rule-of-thumb’:  at least an 8 bit ADC is required …but due to the ADC Dynamic Range (DR) requirements at least a 12 bit ADC is recommended ! 9

10. MARINTEK ADC Dynamic Range (DR) DR Q > 60 dB is jugded a minimum with signal compression?  at least a 12 bit ADC is required Signal compression: Large DC and reflections in the collimator’s vicinity to be suppressed? 10
