What is the Bandwidth of OuterNet Signal?

1

Hello All -

I am temporarily using a higher performance software defined receiver, along with SDR-Console application to test my antenna/LNA configuration. (Outernet “branded” patch antenna and LNA)

I see some signals around 1541.5 MHz, some are narrow, others very wide. (I’m in the USA, so I’m tuning +/- 1539.9 MHz)

How much bandwidth does the Outernet signal occupy?

Does anyone per chance have a “snapshot” of what the signal looks like?

Thanks,
Mike

It’s a 5 kHz channel. It will be the weakest signal that you see, since the somewhat nearby AERO signals are about 6+ dB higher. I rarely spend time with SDR#, but I can take a snapshot in a few hours, once I get to the office.

Thanks, Syed . . . the info helps a lot!

Hi Mike,

You can find a few snapshots of the Outernet and AERO signals in the following post

The signals are from Inmarsat 25E but they must be the same on all satellites.

Here are a few from Chicago pointing to 98W.
