Abstract: System for dynamically tracking a position of a target with an antenna in a communication system. The system includes an antenna system (410) configured for generating a sum and difference antenna pattern (201-1, 201-2). A sum RF channel (401) is coupled to a sum channel output of the antenna system. A difference RF channel (402) is coupled to a difference channel output of the antenna system. An RF coupler (422-1) is provided that has a first input coupled to the sum RF channel and a second input coupled to the RF difference channel. One or more coupling control devices (418-1, 418-2) selectively vary an effective coupling value as between the difference channel and the sum channel. An antenna tracking error signal is generated at an output of the coupler.

Abstract: A system and method for isolating a data or circuit signal, where the circuit signal has been frequency spread modulated with other such signals onto a beam signal and which beam signal has been frequency spread modulated onto an IF signal, using a buss for providing the entire IF signal to a bank of frequency agile tuning demodulators. Plural IF signals may be processed simultaneously where each tuning demodulator has access to each IF signal via a plurality of IF busses. Each tuning demodulator is capable of isolating any circuit signal from any IF signal.
