This paper discusses modifications made to a commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) signal generator that aids acquisition of low earth orbit (LEO) satellites. The modification compensates for the Doppler Frequency offset that commonly affects acquisition of LEO satellites. This allows the user to use a COTS signal generator for the uplink exciter. User programmable features have been added to the signal generator, which compensates for the Doppler Shift.Sponsors
