Introduction:

Lab Satellite Receiver Trainer is based on a modern and complete satellite receiver system consists of an external unit including: parabolic antenna, driven positioner, polarizer and LNB converter. This trainer is mounted in a sleek Anodized Aluminium cabinet defining a compact and functional set indicating the Block diagram of satellite Receiver in multicolour. Test points are provided on an easily accessible panel; the fault simulators are also provided in this trainer. The following objectives are explained in this trainer for the students to understand the complete working principles of satellite receiver system.
