Hardware & Software System GPAP
Description
The hardware and software system GPAP with a gyrostabilized antenna is an shipborne system for
continuous and reliable reception of satellite TV signals even during the ship’s movement.
Components
GPAP includes a satellite antenna installed on three – axis gyrostabilized supports; moveover, the control of the focal axis of the antenna by azimuth and elevation angle is executed from the hardware part of the complex.
Capabilities
The system provides the following capabilities:
- Stabilization of the focal axis of the antenna in the inertial space;
- Manual or automatic pointing of the antenna towards the satellite;
- Automatic tracking of the satellite during the ship’s movement.
Basic Specifications
- The gyrostabilized antenna is protected against the influences of wind and rain with a radio-transparent shelter.GPAP guarantees stable reception of television signal all over the world.
- Error of measuring the angular orientation of the antenna by azimuth and the elevation angle less than 5 angular minutes.
- – tranRolling and pitching compensation – ±30 angular degrees
