BGAN for Software Defined Radio

Incorporate BGAN capability efficiently

Need to incorporate BGAN capability on a Software Defined Radio? The Gatehouse BGAN SDR solution is a complete, Viasat (former Inmarsat) type-approved waveform that enables fast, low-effort integration on SDR platforms for both commercial and military applications.

The waveform includes all software required to access BGAN services, covering FPGAs, DSPs and GPPs, and it supports all UE classes with automatic configuration at start-up. Designed for portability, it relies on standard SCA interfaces wherever possible and includes antenna pointing and control. The physical layer manages RF hardware, HPA and LNA, making the solution compatible with any standard SCA-compliant SDR platform.

Key Benefits

  • Enables global SDR-based satellite communication.

  • Minimum effort required for integrating the waveform with different radio platforms.

  • Supports the full suite of BGAN bearers, such as packet switched data, circuit switched data and Integrated Services for Digital Network (ISDN).

Land, maritime and aeronautical

Together with a hardware platform, the solution forms a complete radio for land, maritime or aeronautical use. The waveform is designed for military as well as civilian use and it is type approved by Viasat (former Inmarsat).

Well-documented, mature software

The BGAN SDR is a complete solution with full modem design based on the existing BGAN Protocol Stack, already incorporated in more than 120,000 BGAN terminals from several suppliers.

An experienced partner

With Gatehouse Satcom, you get an experienced partner for all phases of a solution development project from requirements specifications through design, implementation and test.

Well-documented software

With the BGAN SDR, you get well-documented, structured and easily maintainable software. You can feel safe knowing that it has been developed by a supplier that has provided products and services to equipment manufacturers for several years, on a global scale.
