SystemFlow Architecture SystemFlow GUI The SystemFlow architecture features a Windows-based GUI (Graphical User Interface) that provides a simple means to configure and control the system. Custom configurations can be stored as profiles and later loaded when needed, allowing the user to select preconfigured settings with a single click. Server/Client Architecture As shown in the block diagram, the SystemFlow architecture provides for easy communication between the recording system Server on the right and the Client PC on the left. CLIENT SystemFlow Signal Viewer SystemFlow also includes signal viewing and analysis tools that allow the user to monitor the signal prior to, during, and after a recording session. These tools include a virtual oscilloscope and a virtual spectrum analyzer. More information on the Signal Viewer is provided on the next page. Server/Client Communication Server and Client communicate through a standard socket connection. This arrangement enables the Server to provide real-time recording and playback functions that can be controlled from a local or a remote Client. It also allows Client and Server to run on different operating systems. Local or Remote Socket connection SERVER Function Libraries The function libraries and tools for controlling the recording and playback functions include the Application Programming Interface, the Graphical User Interface and the integrated Signal Viewer. SystemFlow JAVA Record/Play GUI Application SystemFlow JAVA Client API LabVIEW Signal Viewer Sockets NTFS API Sockets NTFS SystemFlow Command Processor User Control Block SystemFlow Record/Play Server Application Windows Drivers User Proc. Block Client Operating System (Windows/Linux/Other) Windows Operating System SystemFlow API The SystemFlow API allows developers to configure and customize the system interfaces and operation. Source code is supplied for all client API functions. A well-defined set of plugins allows the user to extend server API functions. NTFS File System The NTFS file management system provides immediate access to the recorded data, thereby eliminating time-consuming data conversion processes required with proprietary file management systems. It also eliminates the need for custom hardware and software platforms where the recorded data may need to be physically transported for conversion.

SystemFlow Graphical User Interface SystemFlow Recorder Interface The Recorder Interface provides the user with a control interface for the recording system. It includes Configuration, Record, Playback and Status screens, each with intuitive controls and indicators. The user can easily move between screens to set configuration parameters, control and monitor a recording, play back a recorded signal and monitor board temperature and voltage levels. The signal viewer, integrated into the recording GUI, allows the user to monitor real-time signals or signals recorded on disk. SystemFlow Hardware Configuration Interface The Hardware Configuration Interface provides a simple and intuitive means for setting up the system parameters. The DDC configuration screen shown here, provides entries for input source, center frequency, decimation, as well as gate and trigger information. All parameters contain limitchecking and integrated help to provide an easier-to-use out-of-the-box experience. SystemFlow Signal Viewer The SystemFlow Signal Viewer includes a virtual oscilloscope and spectrum analyzer for signal monitoring in both the time and frequency domains. It is extremely useful for previewing live inputs prior to recording, and for monitoring signals as they are being recorded to help ensure successful recording sessions. The viewer can also be used to inspect and analyze the recorded files after the recording is complete. Advanced signal analysis capabilities include automatic calculators for signal amplitude and frequency, second and third harmonic components, THD (total harmonic distortion) and SINAD (signal to noise and distortion). With time and frequency zoom, panning modes and dual, annotated cursors to mark and measure points of interest, the SystemFlow Signal Viewer can often eliminate the need for a separate oscilloscope or spectrum analyzer in the field.

Recording and Playback Dataflow Recording Dataflow Shown in this diagram is the dataflow during a typical recording session. The Pentek Transceiver Board contains a -channel 00 MHz A/D for digitizing two input analog channels. The digitized outputs are downconverted by the two DDCs (Digital Downconverters) and moved on to the PC system memory via the PCI Express interface. Both the DDCs and the PCIe interface are implemented in the board s FPGA. Data then moves from the system memory to the Recording System RAID Controller and is then recorded to disk via the SATA interface. DMA controllers conduct all data transfers, bypasssing the CPU for guaranteed real-time operation.

From there, data is passed to the PC system memory through the PCIe interface and then to the Pentek Transceiver board through its PCIe interface, all via hardware DMA controllers for real-time operation. This board also contains DUCs (Digital Upconverters) which upconvert the data to the original IF frequency bands. Two 800 MHz D/As convert the data to analog form and provide signals that are identical to the analog signals that were originally recorded. These can be further analyzed with any Windows-compatible analysis software.
