Aprisa SR+ Product Description 

 

Transmitter 

 

Average Power output 

64 QAM 

0.01 to 1.25 W (+10 to +34 dBm, in 1 dB steps) 

Note: The Peak Envelope Power 

(PEP) at maximum set power 
level is +41 dBm. 

16 QAM 

0.01 to 2.5 W (+10 to +35 dBm, in 1 dB steps) 

QPSK 

0.01 to 5.0 W (+10 to +37 dBm, in 1 dB steps) 

4-CPFSK 

0.01 to 10.0 W (+10 to +40 dBm, in 1 dB steps) 

 

When the transmitter power is set from SuperVisor, it sets the output power of the preamble sent with 
every transmit burst. The actual power per modulation will be:  

 

Preamble Average Power 

SuperVisor Setting 

QPSK Average Power 

SuperVisor Setting 

16 QAM Average Power 

SuperVisor Setting -2 dBm 

64 QAM Average Power 

SuperVisor Setting -3 dBm 

Peak Power 

+41 dBm 

 

Note:  The  Aprisa  SR+  transmitter  contains  power  amplifier  protection  which  allows  the  antenna  to  be 
disconnected from the antenna port without product damage. 

 

 

Adjacent channel power 

< - 60 dBc 

Transient adjacent channel power 

< - 50 dBc 

Spurious emissions 

< - 37 dBm 

Attack time 

< 1.5 ms 

Release time 

< 1.5 ms 

Data turnaround time 

< 10 ms 

Frequency stability 

± 1 ppm 

Frequency aging 

< 1 ppm / annum 

Synthesizer lock time 

< 1.5 ms (5 MHz step) 

 

Note: The demo Aprisa SR+ (model number SQ D400-002) has a maximum transmitter power of 5 W with a 
peak power of +37 dBm. It also does not support 4-CPFSK modulation.
