How to determine the f_IF from .xml file?

Skydel Discussion

Hi,

I am doing post-processing on the IQ files generated from Skydel by choosing File as the output type. It involves satellites. I know how to read the center frequency, sampling rate from the .xml file, but I am not sure how to get the f_IF. Can someone tell me where to get it?

Best,
Hongzhao

Hi, @hongzhaozheng ,

After consulting with one of our experts, this was the response:

The Intermediate Frequency (f_IF) is effectively ZERO in this case as the IQ data generated by Skydel through the “File” output type option is in the baseband. This means the client Software Receiver should process the IQ data generated by Skydel with f_IF = 0.

Hope this helps, and feel free to contact us again if you need more help.
