LyraLink is a high-performance receiver designed for use as ground station equipment, in laboratory settings for transmitter development, or as part of an Electrical Ground Support Equipment (EGSE) system. It is fully configurable for a wide range of symbol rates and IF frequencies via an intuitive Graphical User Interface.

Supported modulation schemes include QPSK, 8PSK, 16APSK, 32APSK, and 64APSK, with capabilities for Serial Concatenated Convolutional Codes decoding and raw data storage at a maximum throughput of 6.5 Gbps per channel.

The instrument provides valuable insights into the received signal, such as EVM, SNR estimation, input power, scatter plot, and spectrum. An integrated Bit Error Rate Meter (BERT) allows for the characterization of transmitter performance in terms of Bit Error Rate (BER), Codeword Error Rate (CER), or Frame Error Rate (FER) versus Energy per Symbol over Noise Density (Es/N0). An optional Test Modulator is available to generate test signals with configurable impairments such as AWGN and Doppler.
