Zestaw radiomodemów RFD868x-EU
Opis
Zestaw radiomodemów dalekiego zasięgu na 868MHz.
Wersja certyfikowana w EU, zgodna z następującymi normami::
- EN 301 489-3 V2.1.1
- EN 300 220-2 V3.1.1
- EN 62311:2008
Wersja certyfikowanana w EU ma ograniczone tryby działania, małej mocy (5mW) z pełnym wypełnieniem i tryb wysokiej mocy (500mW) z małym wypełnieniem.
Tryb małej mocy znacząco zmniejsza zasięg a tryb wysokiej mocy znacząco zmniejszy przepustowość. Te tryby są zgodne z wymaganiami EU i nie mogą być zmienione.
Please note: The EU certified modems have limited operation modes, a low power (5mW) full duty cycle mode, and a high power (500mW) low duty cycle mode. The low power mode will significantly reduce the effective range of the system and the low duty cycle mode will significantly reduce data throughput. These conditions are a requirement of the certified modems and CANNOT be altered.
RFD868x-EU New Features:
- New Processor, ARM 32 bit core.
- Air data rate: 200kbit/s.
- AES Hardware accelerated encryption. *Fully working*
- RC PPM Passthrough with telemetry at the same time.
- Fully ESD protected + filtered - Every IO port is protected and filtered.
- Original SiK point to point firmware implemented.
- Note: Currently due to the bandwidth limitations of the 868 modems Asynchronous Mesh and Multipoint Firmware are not officially supported for the 868X modems and correct operation of this code cannot be guaranteed
Features:
- Long range >20km depending on antennas and GCS.
- 2 x RP-SMA RF connectors, diversity switched.
- 500mW (+27dBM) See specifications.
- Transmit low pass filter.
- > 20dB Low noise amplifier, high IP3.
- RX SAW filter.
- All I/O ESD protected and filtered.
- Re implemented SiK and firmware, field upgrade-able, easy to configure.
- Small, light weight.
- Note: Not compatible with older modems
- The standard RFD868x will not communicate with the RFD868x-EU modem unless the standard RFD868x is configured to the same frequency as the EU modem.

- Temp. Range: -40 to +85 deg C, tested operational from -73 to +123 deg C.
Software / GCS Support:
The software solution is an open source development called "SiK". It has been re implemented to suit the new processor architecture available on the 32bit ARM processor core. A boot loader and interface is available for further development and field upgrade of the modem firmware via the serial port.
Most parameters are configurable via AT commands, Eg. baud rate (air/uart), frequency band, power levels.
Integrated support for configuring the RFD radios is supported by APM Planner.
The default settings are at 57600 baud, N, 8, 1, and 200k air data rate.

The RFD868/900x SiK software manual is here : RFD900x Peer-to-peer Manual
Software features include:
- Frequency hopping spread spectrum (FHSS)
- Transparent serial link
- Point to Point
- Configuration by simple AT commands for local radio, RT commands for remote radio
- User configurable serial data rates and air datarates
- Error correction routines, Mavlink protocol framing (user selectable)
- Mavlink radio status reporting (Local RSSI, Remote RSSI, Local Noise, Remote Noise)
- Automatic antenna diversity switching on a packet basis in realtime
- Automatic duty cycle throttling based on radio temperature to avoid overheating
