Advanced Hybrid SDR Architecture

The AR5001D utilizes a conventional frequency conversion structure for VHF/UHF operation (25–3150 MHz), while incorporating direct digital sampling (DDS) below 25 MHz.

• 0.04–25 MHz: 14-bit Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) operating at 65 Msps, ensuring superior dynamic range and low noise performance in HF bands.
• 25–3150 MHz: Traditional superheterodyne design for proven stability and selectivity.
  This combination offers the best of both worlds—analog sensitivity and digital precision.

Triple Monitoring Capability

A hallmark feature of the AR5001D is its ability to receive multiple emissions simultaneously:

• Dual reception: Monitor HF (0.04–25 MHz) and V/UHF (25–3150 MHz) bands concurrently.
• Twin-channel tuning: Above 25 MHz, tune two separate frequencies within the IF bandwidth.
• Combined mode: Monitor up to three independent signals simultaneously—ideal for surveillance, testing, or research environments.

High-Definition Spectrum Analysis

Equipped with a real-time FFT spectrum analyzer, the AR5001D provides powerful visual analysis:

• Display bandwidth: Adjustable from 400 kHz to 10 MHz in 100 kHz steps
• Real-time digital display on high-resolution LCD panel
• Instant signal identification and interference detection

This feature ensures superior situational awareness and precision in frequency scanning operations.
