NOTICE TO USER
WARNING! Maintain a distance of at least 3 feet (1 meter) between the antenna
and people.
To satisfy RF exposure compliance, you, as a qualified user of this radio device
must control the exposure conditions of bystanders to ensure the minimum
distance is maintained between the antenna and nearby persons. The operation
of this transmitter must satisfy the requirements of the Occupational/Controlled
Exposure Environment for work-related use. Transmit only when people are at
least the minimum distance from the properly installed, externally mounted
antenna.
This radio is designed for initial setup by authorized technicians using a
computer and the GuardianTM programming software. Programming can enable
or disable many of the radio’s features from user access per user agency
security policy and legal restrictions. All, some, or none of the features and
functions described in this manual may be available to the user. To successfully
operate the radio, it is important to understand how the radio is programmed
prior to issuance by the user agency. Consult authorized agency personnel for
features and functions made available or restricted to the user. FCC licensees
are prohibited by federal law from enabling the radio to directly enter transmit
frequencies using the radio's controls.
NOTICE TO INSTALLATION TECHNICIANS
Use only a manufacturer- or dealer-supplied antenna.
Antenna minimum safe distance: 3 feet (1 meter).
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has adopted a safety
standard for human exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) energy that is below
the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) limits.
Antenna mounting: The antenna supplied by the manufacturer or radio
dealer must be mounted at a location so that during radio transmission
people cannot come closer than the minimum safe distance to the antenna,
i.e., 3 feet (1 meter).
To comply with current FCC RF exposure limits, the antenna must be
installed at or exceeding the minimum safe distance, and in accordance
with the requirements of the antenna manufacturer or supplier.
Base station installation: The antenna should be fixed-mounted on an
outdoor permanent structure. Address RF exposure compliance at the time
of installation.

Figure 2-2: Guardian Control Logic
2.4.1.1 Power Supply Unit
This block of circuitry takes the 7.8V regulated voltage together with a number of control signals to generate a
number of power supply outputs.

GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE 2-5
2.4.1.2 On/Off Switching
The main continuous supply 10V control is passed through a front panel on/off switch to generate 10V SW from the
main radio supply. In normal operation the on/off switching is controlled by the radio on/off rotary switch by the
control /RADON. Once switched on the main controller can hold the radio on by setting PWRHOLD. In addition
to the radio rotary on/off switch, the on/off switching can be controlled by the external line /RADOFF via the
accessory connector. This line overrides the /RADON line and can be used to force the radio off regardless of the
rotary switch setting. However, the H8 controller uses the PWRHOLD and PWROFF lines to implement a clean
controlled switch off.
Figure 2-3: RECM Power Supply
2.4.1.3 Transmit Power Switching
A single FET switch controlled by CTX is used to provide a switched 10VTX high-current supply (1.5A) for the
transmitter.
2.4.1.4 4.5V Switch Mode Power Supply
This circuit uses a switch mode power supply device to generate a 4.5V supply at 450 mA maximum for the radio
logic. The switch mode device is synchronous and uses an externally provided power supply clock at 384 kHz. The
power supply circuit includes input and output filters to limit the conduction of the fundamental switching
components and their harmonics in the VHF band, both onwards into the logic and back into the power supply.
2-6 GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE
2.4.1.5 3.3V Linear Logic Supply
The output from the 4.5V switch mode power supply is passed through 3.3V linear power supplies to remove any
remaining power supply switching noise on the main logic supply. One 3.3V supply is used for control logic, the
other 3.3V, 50 mA supply is used for control logic analog circuitry.
2.4.1.6 Reset Generator
This circuit uses a MPU supervisory device (MAX825) to generate a reset pulse of at least 140 ms whenever the
3.3V logic supply drops below 3.08V. The circuit also generates a reset signal when the watchdog input is asserted
by H8 or DSP.
2.4.1.7 5V Linear Logic Supply
This circuit generates a 5V logic supply at 50 mA maximum for use on the control logic.
2.4.1.8 Audio Supplies
Two linear regulators providing clean filtered supplies for the audio at 5V are provided. The audio power amplifiers
use the 5V, 800 mA audio supply. The audio supply is used for the low-current microphone amplifier. A linear 5V
bias supply to the internal microphone is also provided.
2.4.1.9 H8 Microcontroller
H8 is the main controller for the radio and is a HD6433044 ROM-less microcontroller. H8 is configured with an
expanded bus connected to the Flash, RAM, and DSP. The H8 integral bus arbitration logic allows H8 and DSP to
both have access to the Flash and RAM. H8 is clocked by the external TCXO.
H8 is powered from the 3.3V logic supply, and reset by the hardware /RES line. A watchdog output to the hardware-
reset circuitry is provided. H8 generates chip select outputs to allow the Flash, RAM, FPGA, and DSP host port to
be separately addressed.
One serial port of H8 is used to implement a bidirectional synchronous serial interface to the keypad board. This
interface is used to communicate with the keypad MPU and directly load the LCD controller. The clock on this
interface runs at 100 kHz. An associated interrupt input to H8 is used to initiate transfers from the keypad to H8.
This serial interface is also used to load the output expander in the FPGA, and also to configure the FPGA.
One serial port of H8 is used to implement a bidirectional asynchronous serial interface to an external PC used for
programming, filling, and controlling the radio. This interface uses programmable standard baud rates (default 9600
baud) and standard data formats. There are no handshaking parallel lines associated with this interface. Two parallel
I/O lines on H8 are used to generate an I2C interface to allow the EEPROM on the transceiver to be accessed. Four
parallel output lines on H8 are used to generate a synchronous serial output bus with clock and data and separate
strobe lines for the DAC, control shift register, and synthesizer on the transceiver.
One H8 DAC output is used to generate simple audio tones of varying volume for use as audio alerts. The second
H8 DAC output is available for VCTCXOP control. The six-channel ADC is used to measure: the raw supply
voltage, WRU radio input, reference crystal temperature, PA temperature, PA current, and RSSI. Two I/O lines are
used to implement software UART, used for debug outputs in the development environment.

The DSP56309 (or DSP56302) processor implements all baseband signal-processing functions in the radio. It
interfaces with the transceiver through one ESSI port, to the user for voice through the second ESSI port. The DSP
function is controlled by H8 through the DSP host port. The DSP has direct access to the main Flash memory
through the bus arbitration logic in H8, this allows it to download program images. The initial power-on code
download is through the host port. The hardware-reset line resets the DSP. The TCXO clock output line clocks the
DSP at 12.288 MHz. The DSP ESSI 1 port is used to provide a synchronous interface to the IF ADC and the
transceiver 12-bit DAC. In receive modes that interface is capable of writing to the DAC at 48 ksps while still
reading the ADC at 96 ksps. The DSP ESSI “0” port is used to provide a full-duplex synchronous interface to the
audio CODEC using 8 kHz sampling rate and 13 bit samples. The data transfer is at 2.048 MHz using a DSP
sourced clock and framing pulse.
2.4.3 Flash ROM
A 512k x16 Flash ROM is used as the main program store for the H8 controller and DSP. The Flash ROM uses a
protected boot sector that is factory programmed via the DSP JTAG port. Normal reprogramming is implemented
by running H8 from the boot sector and using 3V, programming the bulk of the device. The Flash is used to provide
a parameter storage area for nonvolatile data storage of frequencies and keys, etc. This storage area is capable of in
excess of 100k write cycles.
2.4.4 RAM
A 128k x 8 static RAM is used for temporary storage of data by the H8 controller. This RAM is powered by a
continuous supply that maintains its contents as long as a power source is present. Additionally the RAM has a
backup capacitor to retain its contents over power interruptions.
2.4.5 TCXO
This oscillator serves as the reference for all logic and power supply clocks within the control logic and keypad. It
provides the data rate clocks for radio operation, and is the source of the ADC/DAC/CODEC conversion clocks. The
TCXO is at 12.288 MHz, with a temperature tolerance of +2.5 ppm. Additional calibration is performed to provide
a typical temperature tolerance of ± 1.0 ppm, a trimmer to set the initial frequency is provided. A Schmitt trigger
buffer squares up the TCXO sine wave output before being output to H8 and DSP.
2-8 GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE
2.4.6 FPGA
The control logic uses an Altera 8282 FPGA device to provide a flexible serial data routing function, I/O expansion
for H8 and DSP, clock generation, data multiplexing, and to absorb discrete logic functions.
The synchronous serial bus routing function involves routing the synchronous serial port of H8 either to the keypad
and LCD, or to the I/O expansion in the FPGA. High-order address pins from H8 control this routing and a FPGA
dummy write with dedicated FPGA chip select from H8. The FPGA includes a serial load parallel output shift
register that is used for parallel output expansion for H8.
The discrete logic functions of the FPGA, includes logic to control an inverter for one of the LCD control outputs.
The data multiplexing function involves rerouting serial pins between the accessory connector and the DSP SCI port
to allow data transmission and keyfill operations.
2.4.6.1 FPGA Configuration
The FPGA is configured at start-up from the main Flash memory using a serial load from H8. During configuration
outputs are tri-stated and pulled to a safe level by committing resistors to prevent audio and RF bursts at power up.
2.4.7 IF ADC
The IF sampling ADC is a 12-bit ADC capable of sub-sampling a 455 kHz, IF signal at 96 kHz sampling rate. It is
connected by a serial interface to the DSP ESSI port 1. The serial data interface is clocked at 1536 kHz.
2.4.8 Clock Generation

and the keypad microcontroller. The clock generator logic is implemented in the FPGA.
2.4.9 Logic Audio CODEC
The audio CODEC is an integrated ADC/DAC and audio filter device capable of full-duplex operation on voice
bandwidth signals at 8 ksps. The samples have a resolution of 13-bits linear. The CODEC is connected to the DSP
ESSI port “0” with serial data transfer rate of 2.048 MHz. The CODEC is continuously powered from the 3V logic
and 3V audio supplies. DSP parallel control lines are used to mute the input and output sections as required.
2.4.10 Accessory Connector Interface and Filtering
All outputs are filtered to limit their bandwidth to the minimum and current limited to protect them from output
short circuits to ground or up to 16V. All inputs are filtered and protected from continuous application of ground or
+16V. There is no protection against negative applied voltages. Inputs and outputs are protected from static
discharge of at least 10 kV air discharge. All inputs and outputs incorporate RF bypass filter capacitors adjacent to
the connector, except for ground.
2.4.11 Transceiver Interface and Filtering
Most of the signals crossing the interface are filtered to limit their bandwidth to the minimum consistent with correct
operation. Outputs from the control are filtered with series resistors on the RECM and grounded capacitors on the
transceiver adjacent to the connector. Outputs from the transceiver to the control use the reverse configuration.
2.4.12 Keypad Interface
Some filtering is provided on this interface, but all outputs are protected from short circuits by series resistors.
Where possible, inputs are also protected from damage by series resistors.
2.4.13 Audio Interface
The audio interface is implemented with four-way wire connectors directly via the 80-pin interface through the
Motherboard to the integral speaker and microphone.
GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE 2-9
2.4.14 Test Interface
The test interface provides the following functions:
Joint test action group (JTAG) connector access for board test and Flash boot sector programming
Board reset and control access
Board power supply and on-off switching access
H8 serial debug port access
2.4.15 LED
The control logic incorporates a 3-color LED used for status information. It is controlled by the FPGA to show red,
green, or off. It is optically coupled to the top face of the radio by a light pipe. The hardware is configured so
during hardware reset, before the keypad MPU software is running, the LEDs are off.

Transmit mode @ 5W: 1,500 mA
2.5 RECM Transceiver
RF shields covers the board.
2.5.1 Interface
J2 is the transceiver antenna connector. RF signals are transmitted and received through this surface mount RF
connector. Transmitted and received RF signals are routed from this connector through a short RF cable to the
RX/TX relay on the Motherboard.
2.5.1.1 Transmit Chain
The pre-driver amplifier (Q7, etc.) amplifies the TXLO signal from the synthesizer section. The Q7 output power is
typically 13 dBm measured at C77/R44/R49 node.
R44, R49, and R52 are part of a 3 dB pie attenuator network. The gain control is made up of CR5, CR6, and
associated components. This circuit yields more than 50 dB of useful attenuation range. The circuit is part of a
DAC controlled closed loop system, in conjunction with the detector/power control circuit (U12, U13, and
associated components), which controls the transmitter output power level. The power amplifier (PA) is a
Mitsubishi M68776, 7.2V, 6W gained controlled power amplifier.
The harmonic filter (C209, L30, C81, C82, L31, C83, and C84) attenuates harmonics created by the power
amplifier. The harmonic filter insertion loss is 0.4 dB typically at 174 MHz. The output of the harmonic filter
connects to the 20 dB coupler (U12). This coupler is part of a DAC-controlled closed loop system designed to set
the transmitter output power level. The insertion loss through the coupler (U12-1 to U12-3) is 0.2 dB typically.
2.5.1.2 Power Amplifier Control
Transmit output power level is controlled by the detector/power control circuit and the gain control amplifier input
via VCONTROL. This closed loop system is designed to keep the transmitter output power constant over variations
in temperature, transmitter supply voltage (7.5VT), and RF power levels into the transmit chain. The detector/power
control circuit is made up of the 20 dB coupler (U12), an RF rectifier circuit (CR11, CR12, etc.), and an integrator
(U13). The DAC line labeled PWRSET at the non-inverting input of U13 sets the transmitter to the desired power
level. U12-2 samples the transmit signal. The sampled RF signal is rectified by the temperature stable circuitry of
CR11, CR12, etc, and is routed to the inverting input of the integrator at U13-4. The output of the integrator at U13-
1, labeled VCONTROL, controls the gain of the power amplifier. Any change in transmitter output power level is
automatically corrected by the loop.
2-10 GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE
2.5.1.3 PIN Diode Switch
The antenna PIN diode switch is made up of CR7, CR8, CR9, CR10, and other associated components. This switch
is a four-port design. The four ports are antenna 1 (TOP RF), antenna 2 (SIDE RF), receive, and transmit. Receive
and transmit ports can be switched to only one of the two antenna ports. Transmit signals are routed from the
transmit/receive PIN diode switch (to be discussed in the following paragraph) to the antenna port. The receive
signal is routed from the selected antenna port to the transmit/receive PIN diode switch. The antenna PIN diode
switch and receiver circuits share current in the receive mode of operation via the signal labeled RXSINK at Q11,
pin 3. The insertion loss through the antenna pin switch is 0.2 dB typically.
The transmit/receive PIN diode switch is made up of C6, L60, L38, L40, L39, D9, D7, D10, C97, C98, C104, C105,
C106, C107, and other associated components. C127, C114, L42, and C115 are the 1/4 wave simulator circuit. The
1/4 wave simulator is critical to the design of the switch. In the transmit mode of operation CR13 and CR14 are
forward biased. C116 resonates with the internal series inductance of CR14 at 155 MHz and the receive port (RX
INPUT) is RF shorted to ground. With the receive port RF shorted to ground; the parallel combination of C127,
C114, and L42 forms a tank circuit resonating at 155 MHz. Consequently, the receive port appears as an open
circuit to the transmit signal and is routed to the antenna PIN diode switch. In the receive mode of operation, CR13
and CR14 are biased off so C114/L42/C115 appears as a low-pass filter (LPF) to signals at the antenna port of the
switch. The insertion loss through the transmit/receive PIN diode switch is 0.4 dB in the transmit mode and 0.2 dB
in the receive mode typically.
Q10 to Q19 and associated components are switching transistors used to control the antenna and transmit/ receive
PIN diode switches. The current flowing through the entire PIN diode circuit is approximately 45 mA in the
transmit mode of operation. In the receive mode of operation the transmit/receive PIN diode switch is disabled, and
nominal 85 mA flows through the antenna PIN diode switch.
2.5.2 Receiver
The VHF signal enters into the RX INPUT via the PIN diode switch (discussed previously). D1 and D2 are
Schottky protection diodes to protect the front-end circuitry from RF overloads that could occur if the PIN diode
switch failed to work properly or if a transmitter is very close to a receiver. Typical insertion loss is 0.1 dB for the
protection diodes. L25/C61 form a band-stop filter (BSF) at the first IF frequency of 45 MHz. Typical insertion
loss for the BSF is 15 dB at 45 MHz but less than 0.1 dB in the VHF band.
L14, L6, CR3, CR4, L7, CR27, CR28, L8, and L15 make up the very high frequency (VHF) preselector band-pass
filter (BPF). The BPF is inductively coupled for improved high-side attenuation. This filter provides attenuation to
spurious signals such as the first image and the half-IF. The BPF is varactor diode tuned by DAC line RXVTF.
Typical insertion loss (138 to 174 MHz) is 1 dB for the VHF BPF.
The RF amplifier (Q1, T1, etc.) utilizes loss-less feedback to deliver reasonable gain, low-noise figure, and a high
third order intercept point simultaneously. Typical gain (136 to 174 MHz) is 11.5 dB for the RF amplifier.
C14, L1, C9, C15, L2, C10, C16, L3, C11, C17, and L9 form a VHF LPF. This filter provides additional RX
spurious attenuation as well as image noise attenuation. L4, C12, L16, C25, L5, and C13 form a BSF at the first IF
frequency of 45 MHz. The insertion loss is 1.0 to 2.0 dB (136 to 174 MHz) typically for the cascade. The IF BSF
insertion loss is typically 40 dB at 45 MHz, but less than 0.3 dB in the VHF band.
U1 is a double-balanced mixer (DBM). U1 converts the desired RF signal down to the first IF of 45 MHz. High-
side local oscillator (LO) injection is used. Therefore, the LO is 45 MHz higher than the receiver tuned frequency.
The LO drive level is +10 dBm nominal at U1, pin 1. The conversion loss of the mixer (RF to IF) is 5.5 dB
typically.
The LO signal is generated in the synthesizer section (to be discussed later). The LO signal is designated RXLO on
the schematic diagram. The LO signal is routed to a LPF consisting of C31, L21, C87, C30, L20, C75, and C28.
L19 and C28 are also used to impedance match the LO port of the mixer. The insertion loss of the VHF LO LPF is
0.3 dB typically at 174 MHz.
R4, L17, C6, L10, R5, and C23 make up the diplexer network. This network properly terminates the DBM both in
and out of band. The diplexer also provides some additional half-IF spurious rejection. The diplexer insertion loss
is 0.8 dB typically at 45 MHz.
GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE 2-11
There are two 45 MHz IF amplifier circuits. The first (Q2, T2, etc.) utilizes loss-less feedback to deliver reasonable
gain, low-noise figure, and a high third order intercept point simultaneously. Typical gain is 10.5 dB for the first IF
amplifier.
There are two crystal BPFs and a second 45 MHz IF amplifier. The BPFs provide attenuation for the adjacent and
alternate channels, and also for the second image response. FL1 is a four-pole crystal filter with a 20 kHz
bandwidth centered at 45 MHz. FL4 is a two-pole crystal filter with a 30 kHz bandwidth centered at 45 MHz. The
second 45 MHz IF amplifier provides high gain to prevent further degradation of receive sensitivity. C57, L12,
C18, C19, and L13 are impedance matching elements for the input of FL1. The output of FL1 is impedance
matched to the second 45-MHz IF amplifier (Q36, etc.) by C285, L64, and C242.
The output of the second 45-MHz IF amplifier is impedance matched to FL4 by C287, L61, C286, C237, L60, and
C235. The entire cascade provides 21 dB of gain and has a 3 dB bandwidth of 20 kHz typically. Typical insertion
loss is 1.5 dB for each crystal BPF.
The IF IC (U28) contains the second mixer and an IF amplifier chain. The 45 MHz IF signal enters U28 at pin 6
from the crystal BPF (FL4). FL4 is impedance matched to the IF IC input by C294, L62, and C288. The incoming
45 MHz IF signal is mixed with the second LO (to be discussed later). The second mixer IF output is at U28, pin 8
and the second IF frequency is 455 kHz.
The signal from U28-8 is routed to FL3. FL3 is a ceramic BPF operating at 455 kHz. The insertion loss of the
ceramic BPF is 6 dB typically in a 1500-ohm system.
The 455 kHz IF signal enters U28-10, is amplified by a cascade of IF amplifiers, and exits at U28-14. The signal
from U28-14 then enters a second ceramic BPF, FL2. FL2 is the final ceramic BPF with a typical insertion loss of 8
dB in a 1000-ohm system. The 455 kHz IF signal enters its final stage of amplification at U29-3. U29 is configured
as a non-inverting operational amplifier and is capable of driving a 50-ohm load. The amplifier is set for a voltage
gain of 2.5. With the receiver set to full gain the signal level at J4 (455 kHz IF OUT MONITOR) is -20 dBm "3 dB
into 50 ohm with a -119 dBm unmodulated 136 MHz signal injected at J2 (TOP RF) or J3 (SIDE RF). The second
LO consists of CR26, R33, Y1, L24, C59, C226, C227, and Q35. The oscillator is a Colpitts type with the crystal
operating in the series mode. CR24 is a varactor diode used to set the oscillator on frequency using the DAC output
labeled 2nd LO. The second LO operating frequency is 44.545 MHz (low-side injection). L65 and C223 impedance
match the output of Q35 to the LPF (C289, C293, L63, and C284). The signal is attenuated by R282, R283, and
R284 and sent on to the second mixer. The signal level at U28-4 is -16 dBm nominal.
U4 is a voltage regulator used to power the receiver circuits. The dc voltage appearing at U4, pin 1, labeled
RXSINK on the schematic diagram, is routed from the antenna PIN diode switch. As previously discussed, the PIN
diode switch and the receiver circuits share current to reduce receive power consumption. The control line +3.3V
RXEN is used to enable the regulator while the transceiver is in the receive mode of operation. The regulator is
disabled during the transmit mode of operation.
2.5.2.1 Synthesizer and Reference Oscillator
U19 is a fractional-N synthesizer IC programmed for a specific frequency by loading appropriate serial data into the
IC. It controls the receive VCO when the transceiver is in the receive mode of operation, and the transmit VCO
when in the transmit mode. The programming lines are labeled 3VSCL, 3VSDA and 3VSYNTHENA on the
schematic diagram. These are all CMOS logic level inputs. R118 (RF) and R123 (RN) are the fractional
compensation and phase detector current setting resistors, respectively. These resistors are critical to the operation
of the synthesizer system and must be checked when troubleshooting around U19. The phase detector output pins
(U19-13 and U19-14) are fed to the passive loop filter (R140, C177, C172, R134, and C173) and on to the VCO
control varactor diodes (CR17/CR19) for frequency control. The buffered, filtered output from the VCO is fed into
U19-5 (RF IN) to close the phase-locked-loop. The level is typically -10 dBm into U19-5. The reference oscillator
is made up of CR22, Y2, Q28, C197, and C198 and associated components. The reference oscillator operates at
12.8 MHz. The reference oscillator operating frequency is adjusted by varying the dc voltage at the DAC controlled
line that is labeled REFOSCMOD. This line is also used to modulate the reference oscillator during the
transceiver’s transmit mode of operation. The 12.8 MHz signal is fed into the synthesizer chip at U19-8 (REF IN)
using a coupling capacitor, C194. The AC signal level at U19-8 is 1V p-p typically.
2-12 GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE
U22 is the reference oscillator temperature sensor used to monitor the temperature near Y2. Its output is labeled
XTALTEMP on the schematic diagram. This line is normally monitored by the microprocessor so the reference
oscillator can be adjusted for drift due to changes in temperature.
2.5.2.2 Receive/Transmit VCOs and Buffer Amplifiers
The receive VCO operates from 181 to 219 MHz since high side LO injection is used and the first IF is
45 MHz. The transmit VCO operates from 136 to 174 MHz. Each VCO is a Colpitts type design utilizing a low
noise, bipolar transistor as the active device. The receive VCO uses Q24 and the transmit VCO uses Q21, each in
the common collector configuration. The Colpitts capacitors are C169/C180 (receive VCO), and C137/C142
(transmit VCO). These capacitors enable Q24 to oscillate in the 181 to 219 MHz frequency range and Q21 to
oscillate in the 136 to 174 MHz frequency range. L53 is the resonating inductor for the receive VCO and L45/L46
are the resonating inductors for the transmit VCO. CR20/CR21, and CR16/CR18 are the coarse tuning varactor
diodes for the receive and transmit VCO respectively. These diodes are used to coarse tune the VCO such that the
LPF, phase detector output voltage (from U19) at TP10 equals 1.65 Vdc. The receive and transmit VCOs share the
coarse tuning DAC controlled line labeled CTUNE. Coarse tune dc voltage swings from nominal 1.8 to 22 Vdc.
CR19 (receive VCO) and CR17 (transmit VCO) are the fine-tuning varactor diodes controlled by U19 as was
explained previously. CR15 is the modulation varactor diode for the transmit VCO. The output from the receive
VCO is coupled off Q24-E using C174. The output from the transmit VCO is coupled off Q21-E using C139. The
signal is measured at the C174/R146 node (receive) and the C139/R107 node (transmit), and measures -15 dBm
typically.
Q26 and Q22, and associated components, form the first VCO receive and transmit buffer amplifiers respectively.
These amplifiers buffer the VCO output from changing-output voltage standing wave ratios (VSWR) that could pull
the VCO off frequency. The output from each measures -5 dBm typically. The buffer is measured at the
C170/R141 node (receive) and the C138/R131 node (transmit). Q25 is the second buffer amplifier. This amplifier is
common to both the receive and the transmit VCOs. R131, R141, and R142 are the combining elements used to
make this possible. This buffer outputs a signal large enough, after subsequent attenuation and filtering, to properly
drive the RF IN pin of the synthesizer (U19-5). The output from this buffer is measured at the C167/C53/L52/C175
node and measures 0 dBm typically.
The output from the Q25 buffer is filtered by C175, C53, L52, and C176. This LPF prevents the synthesizer IC
(U19) from locking on to harmonics of the desired frequency. The insertion loss of the LPF is 0.4 dB typically.
The signal is then split by R138, R139, and R144, and sent on to the appropriate receive or transmit final buffer
amplifier. The signal measured at R139/C150/ C186 node is -6 dBm, and the signal measured at R144/R143/C168
node is -6 dBm.
Q23 (receive) and Q27 (transmit) is the final buffer amplifier. Q23 amplifies the signal up to the level needed to
properly drive the LO port of the DBM (discussed previously). Q27 amplifies the signal up to the level needed to
properly drive the PA pre-driver (previously discussed). The signal measured at RXLO is +7 dBm typically. The
signal measured at TXLO is +7 dBm typically.
U17, Q20, etc. form the voltage regulator for the receive and transmit VCO/buffer amplifiers. R67, C124, and Q20
form a super filter, which attenuates voltage regulator noise that may otherwise degrade the synthesizer phase noise
performance.
U20, U21, Q29, Q30, CR23, CR24, CR35, C199, C202, C203, etc. create a voltage multiplier. The circuit is
configured as a voltage quadrupler. Circuit losses and output loading lowers the voltage down from 24 Vdc to about
22 Vdc. The driver circuit (U21) switches at about 192 kHz. This frequency was selected so harmonics would not
land at or near the second IF frequency of 455 kHz. The 22 Vdc supply is used to power the DAC supporting quad
op-amp U18.
The shift register (U24) is used to control transceiver modes of operation and functions. The line labeled STD/SIDE
selects the desired antenna port of the transceiver. The line labeled TX/RX selects either the transmit or receive
mode of operation. +3.3V RXEN turns the receiver on and off (previously discussed). Q34/Q32 and Q33/Q31
enable and disable the receive and transmit VCOs and buffers respectively (discussed previously). U16 is the
voltage regulator that supplies all 5V digital circuitry on the transceiver.
GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE 2-13
2.5.3 Digital/Analog Control
Digital/analog control is shown on page 1 of the RECM schematic. The transceiver is fitted with an EEPROM
(U15). The IC is used to store calibration and curve fit data, which is needed when the transceiver is configured
with the Guardian radio. Each transceiver has its calibration and curve fit data stored within the EEPROM. The
calibration and curve fit data is written to the EEPROM at the successful conclusion of level 2 testing. Two quad 8-
bit serial DACs, a quad 12-bit serial DAC, and supporting operational-amplifiers (U2, U6, U13, U18, and U30)
control much of the transceiver, as has been discussed previously. U32 is a 2.5 Vdc reference used by the Quad 12-
bit DAC and the variable IF attenuator (discussed previously).
U18D and associated components amplifies the dc signal supplied by U31-3.
As was discussed previously, REFOSCMOD is the dc signal, which varies the operating frequency of the reference
oscillator. Normally under DSP and microprocessor control, this line is used to FM modulate the reference
oscillator, which in turn FM modulates the RF carrier in transmit mode. This line is used to temperature compensate
the reference oscillator as well.
The DAC controlled line TXVCOMOD at U31-4 is transmit data normally controlled by DSP and a microprocessor.
This signal is routed to U18C and associated components. U18C and associated components form an active
LPF/attenuator to shape the transmit data before modulating the RF carrier in the transmit mode. The cutoff
frequency of the LPF occurs at 20 kHz. The 1 kHz peak-to-peak signal level at the active LPF output (U18-8) is
one-fourth TXVCOMOD at 2.5 Vdc.
The synthesizer reference oscillator and the transmit VCO are simultaneously modulated to balance the FM
modulation. We refer to this technique as two-point modulation. The DAC values required to balance the
modulation are dependent on RF frequency.
The dc signal at U31-17 is routed to U30 and associated components. This op-amp is configured for a voltage gain
of 2. The dc signal VATT controls the variable IF attenuator (discussed previously) in the receiver chain. Under
DSP and microprocessor control, the attenuator is normally set for a desired amount of attenuation by this DAC
controlled signal.
Q37, Q38, Q39, Q40, Q41, and associated components are used to enable and disable the 14 dB step attenuator in
the receiver chain (discussed previously). Normally under DSP and microprocessor control, the attenuator is set to
the desired state of operation via U31-13. A logic level “1” at this pin enables the attenuator. Conversely, a logic
level “0” at this pin disables the attenuator (bypass mode).
U18B and associated components amplifies the dc signal supplied by U33-2. As discussed previously, CTUNE is
the dc signal which coarse tunes the receive and transmit VCOs. Under microprocessor control, the appropriate
VCO is normally coarse tuned to a desired frequency based on curve fit data stored in the EEPROM (U15). Curve
fit data is obtained and stored in the EEPROM during coarse tune calibration procedures performed at level 2
testing.
The DAC controlled DC signal 2nd LO sets the 2nd LO (discussed previously) on frequency at 44.545 MHz.
Normally under microprocessor control, the 2nd LO is set on frequency based on a DAC value stored in the
EEPROM (U15). The correct DAC value is obtained and stored in the EEPROM during the 2nd LO calibration
procedure at level “2” testing.
The DAC controlled dc signal RXVTF appropriately sets the varactor tuned BPF (discussed previously) based on
the receiver tuned frequency. Normally under microprocessor control, the varactor tuned BPF is set based on curve
fit data stored in the EEPROM (U15). The curve fit is based on statistical data obtained during the testing of
hundreds of units.
The DAC controlled dc signal PWRSET sets the power amplifier (discussed previously) to a desired power level.
Normally under microprocessor control, the power amplifier is set to the desired level based on curve fit data stored
in the EEPROM (U15). The curve fit data is obtained and stored in the EEPROM during transmit power calibration
procedures at level 2 testing. The power calibration procedure obtains curve fit data for five power level settings
(0.1W, 0.5W, 1.0W, 2.0W, and 5.W) over the entire transmitter operating frequency range (136 to 174 MHz).
The DAC controlled dc signals PA1 and PA2 set the gate bias for each power transistor (Q6 and Q9 respectively) in
the power amplifier circuit (discussed previously). These two signals are routed to op-amps U2 and U6, which are
2-14 GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE
configured for a voltage gain of 2. The outputs at U2-1 and U6-1, labeled PABIAS1 and PABIAS2 respectively, are
then routed to the gates of the power transistors. The correct DAC values for the bias current are stored in the
EEPROM (U15). The correct DAC value is obtained and stored in the EEPROM during the power amplifier bias
calibration procedure at level 2 testing. Each gate is biased such that 100 mA of current flows through each power
transistor with PWRSET set to a DAC value of zero in the transmit mode. Level 2 software monitors the U10
output line labeled IMONITOR when calibrating PA bias.
2.5.4 Keypad Microcontroller
The keypad board is controlled by an Atmel AVR4414 microcontroller. This is a Flash programmable device. The
microcontroller implements these functions:
Keypad scanning
PTT switch input
Auxiliary keys input
Volume switch input
Channel switch input
Emergency switch input
Synchronous bidirectional serial interface to main controller at 100 kHz
Keypad and LCD backlight control
A clock derived from the main reference clock, clocks the keypad microcontroller at 1.5 MHz. The keypad
microcontroller is powered by the 3.3V supply as the LCD driver device.
2.6 Audio Amplifier Board
2.6.1 Description
The Audio amplifier board contains the internal and external audio and control circuitry. It also houses the DB25
accessory connector, the DB9 power connector, and the RF control connector that protrudes through the rear panel.
The board is located in the Control Module. The board contains the following functions:
RFI and transient protection and system on/off switch
Voltage regulator and 7.8V on/off switch
Communication with transceiver
Audio power amplifiers
Power levels detector and converter and the RF and DC combiner
PA on off control
RFI and transient protection
2.6.2 Power Conditioning
Power for the Guardian 110W control head enters this board on J5 the DB9 connector. Dual low RDS(on) P-channel
FET Q10 serves as reverse polarity protection and on-off switching. Transistor Q7 pulls down the gates of Q10
when the ON/OFF signal is high, allowing Q10 to conduct. With ON/OFF control low, Q10 is cut off, and will not
pass forward or reverse polarity. An over-voltage condition is detected by D2 and Q6, which cause Q7 to cut off and
turn off power.
Back-to-back transorbers D1 and D4 are used to eliminate voltage spikes before the on/off switch. The input power
is routed to the clamp circuit via an LC filter. The filter eliminates unwanted signals from being conducted to the
vehicle power line.

GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE 2-15
2.6.2.1 Voltage Regulator and 7.8V On/Off Switch
Linear regulator U5 provides +7.8V to the RF power control circuitry and to the other two PC assemblies in the
control head. The regulator is powered via Q10 body diode at all time. When the unit is turned off all the circuits
are disconnected from power except the transceiver in the control head. The transceiver in this case is in the off
state. The power consumption in this case is less than 2 mA powering the boat backup memory circuits.
2.6.3 Communication with Transceiver
Twenty pin IDC headers J2 and J3 carry control and status signals from the transceiver and front panel via the
Control PCA.
2.6.4 Audio Amplifiers
The board contains two identical audio amplifiers. Each audio amplifier has 20 dB gain and is capable of delivering
more than 10W to a 4-ohm load in a bridge-tied-load configuration. They are fed from the transceiver audio output.
A front panel switch selects either or both amplifiers; an unselected amplifier is placed in a mute condition by the
appropriate disable signal. When there is no received signal, both amplifiers are placed in a low-current standby
mode by squelch comparator.
2.6.5 Power Levels Detector, Converter, and RF/DC Combiner
ON /OFF, PTT and RF output power control signals to the 110W power amplifier are generated on this board.
These are present as DC signals on the center conductor of the coaxial cable connecting the control head to the
remote RF PA. A low-pass filter prevents RF from reaching the control circuitry. The voltage levels are as follows:
DC Control Voltage Range PA State
0 to 0.4V DC on/off switch – OFF
>0.7V DC on/off switch – ON
0.7 to 1.2V PA is in bypass – RECEIVE mode
2.1V Power output set 25W
3.6V Power output set 50W
6.5V Power output set to 110W
The transceiver power levels are detected via the connection to TP21. The voltages are as follows:
TP 21 Control Voltage Boat Power Output
2.85 5W
1.87 2W
1.28 1W
The control circuits converts an input above 2.2V (5W setting) to a control signal to 6.5V, which results in 110W
generated in the remote RF power module. Accordingly it converts the 2W and 1W control levels to the indicated
PA control. Input control of less than 1V is converted to 2.6V. The PA puts out 25W also for the 0.5W input power
setting but will fail to do so at the 0.1W setting. In this case power output is not specified, and the red LED will not
light.

2-16 GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE
2.6.6 PA ON/OFF Control (Bypass Mode)
It is possible to operate the system not utilizing the PA (PA in by pass mode.) This is done by turning on control
head on with the PTT depressed. An orange TX light indicates to the user that he is operating in by pass mode. In
this mode, output power is about 1dB lower that the nominal levels delivered from the transceiver, as indicated in
the table above. In normal mode, Q16 conducts at start-up, causing Q14 to conduct, which keeps Q15 off. When
using this mode, Q16 conducts in the reverse direction, Q14 remains off and Q15 conducts, which prevents bias
voltage from being sent to the RF power amplifier.
2.6.7 RF Power Indication
Operational amplifier U3A forces the output control voltage at Q8-E to be equal to that at U3-3. After high power
transmit is detected at the PA output. The RF PA test circuit forces additional current back into this line. The op-
amp loop holds the voltage at the input level, so the additional current is forced out Q8-C and through R44. This
forces Q9 to conduct and sink additional current from the LED_TX. The LED_TX turns off the green light. When
the unit is in bypass (low power) mode the Tx lamplights orange because the red and the green LED’s are on.

2.7 Display Board
The Display board consists of a seven-switch keypad and an LCD module with integrated LED blue backlight. The
board is heatstaked onto the plastic front panel, forming a permanent assembly. Electrical connections are made to
the Interface board via a 20-pin connector (J13).
The radio display module is a full graphics 80x32 pixels LCD, requiring a temperature compensated differential
driving voltage of about 12V and a 1/6 bias, 1/32 duty cycle driving scheme. The LCD driver device (Seiko Epson
SED 1530) drives the display. This LCD driver has an internal display RAM that copes with all the display
refreshing autonomously. Display data transfers from the main controller are only required when the display is
changed, selective display RAM updates are also available to minimize serial traffic. The LCD driver display RAM
is accessed through a one way synchronous serial interface and connected in parallel with the AVR serial port. The
LCD CS input is used to differentiate between serial data for the LCD driver and the keypad board hardware reset
line resets the display drive. The hardware is configured such that during hardware reset, before serial LCD data is
presented, the LCD is blank. The radio keypad consists of 16 keys, which contact onto switch contacts on the rear of
the keypad board.

are at 0 to 3V Complimentary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) levels at the interface. The interface carries the
following functions:
• 10V Control

2.7.2 Keypad
2.7.3 Switch Interface
Interface to switches is provided to the RECM via 80-pin connector to the Interface board.
2.8 Interface Board
This board is located in the Control Head Assembly in the vehicle cab. The transceiver (RECM) is mounted to this
board and interfaces through 80-pin connector J1. The front panel display PCA mounts to this assembly and
interfaces through 20-pin connector J4. The microphone interface is J5, an 8-pin modular connector.
Communication with the audio amplifier board and the remote RF Power Amplifier is through two 20-pin
connectors J2 and J3. The DC power for this board, the transceiver and front panel functions enters via J3. The 3.3V
powering the display and logic is generated by a linear regulator U1 powered from the 7.8V via an on/off switch
q12. All front panel switches and LED lamps are mounted to this board. Connection to the internal 5W speaker is
via J6.
ON/OFF control: Transistors Q11-14 are connected to the outputs of the binary volume switch SW3. The
transceiver uses these signals to detect the off position of the volume switch. At the off position all lines are open. If
any of the lines is switched and ignition power is high Q17 is on providing low (0V) to one of the transistor witch
will result in a positive ON/OFF voltage. This signal witch is routed also to the audio board to control power
function there and in the remote RF Power Amplifier.
SW4: Used to change channels. The transceiver uses the binary outputs to detect the position of the channel switch.
Toggle Switches: Program switch SW1 for a variety of functions. Switch SW2 is used to select between internal
and external audio speakers.
Front panel buttons: Keypad depressions on the front panel are detected by the scanning outputs from the
transceiver. Keypad depressions on the optional DTMF microphone are detected by the DTMF decoder on this
board and are processed as ordinary scan-in signals by the transceiver.
DTMF keypad processing: The optional DTMF can be used to program the radio. Keypad depressions generate a
DTMF tone in the audio output. This signal is routed to DTMF detector U6, and digital outputs are sent to1-of-16
de-multiplexer U2. The outputs from U2 are used to control analog switches U3-5. In this way the transceiver scan-
out lines can be connected to the appropriate scan-in lines to simulate a physical switch closure.

GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE 2-19
PTT processing: In normal operation, a PTT switch closure causes Q2 to conduct, which in turn causes Q7 to
conduct. This signal is distributed to the rest of the radio as the PTT signal. When a DTMF button is depressed, the
transceiver automatically transmits this tone.
PTT lockout: To prevent transmission of DTMF tone during programming, a latch circuit is provided to lockout
PTT. When the ENTER button is pressed the PTT signals is disabled by a latches circuit. When the ESCAPE button
is pressed the lockout latch is reset. It is recommended to utilize the PTT condition lockout during programming the
PTT (light will stay off). This is done by pressing ENTER key and after that hold the PTT key depressed until
programming is done. To re-key the radio release PTT and key the radio once the radio is out of the programming
mode use the ESC key quit programming.

3.1.3 Architecture
A single digital signal processor (DSP) handles all signal-processing functions. An H8 microcontroller is used to
control the user interface and implement other radio control functions. All references to signal names relate to the
Receiver/Exciter/Control Module (RECM). Functionality partitioning is shown in Figure 1-1.
3.1.4 Board Identification
The control logic stores an electronic serial number and modification status within nonvolatile storage on the board.
3.1.5 Self-Test on Power-Up
The software automatically executes a self-test when the radio is switched on. This test is capable of detecting and
identifying faults that prevent the radio from properly operating.
3.1.6 Flash Software Upgrades
The radio software is updated if required using a PC and the Guardian G25AXG004 PC Programming/Cloning
cable.
3.1.7 Voice Coder/Decoder (VOCODER)
The VOCODER uses an improved multi-band excitation (IMBE) voice-coding algorithm as specified in the
telecommunications industry association and electronic industries alliance (TIA/EIA)-102.BABA. The IMBE
VOCODER compresses a high-bit-rate waveform into a low-bit-rate data stream suitable for transmission over the
channel. The VOCODER operates at a net bit rate of 4.4 kbps for voice information and a gross bit rate of 7.2 kbps
after error control coding.
3.2 Radio Control Software
This software controls the transceiver and baseband signal processing functions.
3.2.1 Audio Control
H8 controls the analog audio signal processing. Audio for transmission comes via an external microphone attached
to the front panel. It is wired into the microphone amplifier, which is permanently powered.
Audio output is required when a voice message is received or a tone is generated by the user interface. To allow
audio output, H8 sets either SPKRON or EXTSPKRON to the internal speaker or the accessory connector. If an
external audio accessory is detected by who are you (WRU) <0.5 Vdc, the audio is routed to the accessory
connector. Otherwise audio is routed to the internal speaker. The 16-position volume control knob is decoded and
sent to the DSP through the controller software to control the output audio volume.
3.2.2 DSP Control Software
The DSP implements most of the baseband signal processing in the radio. Its function is controlled through its host
port by the H8 controller. The DSP operates in a number of basic modes controlled by H8 through the host port.
They are as follows:
Mode Description
Idle Current shutdown mode released through the host port
Searching Actively looking for a signal on the IF input signal
Searching paused Search algorithm paused for an economize cycle or frequency change
Active receive Actively receiving a message, initiated by detecting a signal or H8 command
Transmit Actively transmitting voice or data
Keyfill Keyfill operations and key
Management Management tasks

GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE 3-3
The DSP pages-in different program images from the Flash for different modes of operation. Typically one image is
used for receive and standby modes, but a new image is needed for transmit and key management operations. The
DSP can interrupt the H8 controller, and then pass data over the host port back to H8. Interrupts from the DSP
include the following events:
• Signal detected with type data
• Signal lost
• DSP BIT errors
• Paging request
In all active modes the H8 software must be able to write a number of parameters to the DSP and also read back a
number of parameters from the DSP. This is implemented through the host port. The parameters used include:
Mode Description
Search Reference oscillator temperature used by DSP to correct frequency offsets. AGC
reset control is used at start of search period
Analog setting BW, squelch tones, squelch code, and squelch level
Digital setting Data rate, key, and algorithm
Project 25 setting NAC and TGID
CVSD setting Continuously variable slope delta (CVSD). Data rate

volume, sidetone on/off
Analog setting Squelch controls and de-emphasis
CVSD setting Data rate and key
Project 25 setting NAC, TGID, key and low-rate data (for future use)
3.2.3 Transceiver Board
The Transceiver board is controlled through a synchronous serial bus from H8 to the transceiver allowing H8 to
control the synthesizer, two 4-channel 8-bit digital to analog converters (DAC), and a control shift register in the
transceiver board. Some of the DAC channels are set according to data in the transceiver’s electronically erasable
read-only memory (EEPROM) calibration tables.
3.2.3.1 Mode Control
The transceiver shift register and the CTX output of the field-programmable gate array (FPGA) control the modes of
operation (transmit, receive, or standby). The outputs are controlled as below:
Mode Description
Spare (SR bit 1) Spare
3.3VRXSynth (SR bit 2) Set in active receive mode, RXVCO enable
3.3VTXSynth (SR bit 3) Set in active transmit mode, TXVCO enable
3.3VRXEnable (SR bit 4) Set in active receive mode, receiver enable
Spare (SR bit 5) Spare
Spare (SR bit 6) Spare

3-4 GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE
Mode Description
TX/RX (SR bit 7) Set in active transmit mode, front end TX/RX control
STD/SIDE (SR bit 8) Set to use radio antenna, reset to use accessory connector RF port
CTX (FPGA output) Set in active transmit mode to enable the RF power amplifier
3.2.3.2 Frequency Control
The frequency of operation in both transmit and receive is controlled by the H8 setting in the synthesizer through the
serial bus. To set the desired frequency, the appropriate TX or RX synthesizer enable S-R bit must be set, the serial
data loaded into the synthesizer chip, and the DAC2 output A synthesizer coarse tune set to the appropriate value for
the frequency according to the EEPROM calibration table. Synthesizer lock is monitored by the out-of-lock (OOL)
input. Once the synthesizer lock is achieved, the transmitter or receiver is enabled with the appropriate control bits
3.3VRX enable, CTX, and TX/RX. Economizing the synthesizer function is implemented by controlling the
3.3VTXS/RXS bits and by controlling the EM main divider enable bit in the synthesizer control word. If the
frequency is unchanged, the synthesizer serial data need not be reloaded when coming out of economize.
3.2.3.3 12-Bit DAC
DACLDA, DACADCCLK, and DACDOUT control the 12-bit DAC for IFAGC, TXVCOMOD, REFOSCMOD,
and VATT.
3.2.3.4 Reference Oscillator Temperature Compensation
The H8 software constantly monitors the reference oscillator crystal temperature using the XTALMON line. The
temperature data is used to lookup the compensation factor in the transceiver’s EEPROM calibration table. This
compensation factor is written into the DSP, added as a dc offset reference oscillator modulation signal, and used as
a dc offset in receive mode.
3.2.3.5 Receiver Control
Setting 3.3VRXE enables the linear receiver chain. The DSP implements software AGC system to control the gain
of the linear receiver chain. The H8 controller monitors the actual received signal level by reading RSSI. At all
times during receive the RXVTF DAC2 output C must be set to the value in the EEPROM calibration table
corresponding to the receive frequency used. This makes the receiver’s front-end tunable filter centered on the
desired frequency. At all times in receive modes the second LO DAC2 line output B must be controlled using data
from the EEPROM calibration table and indexed with oscillator temperature data XTALMON. The temperature
compensates the second LO in the receiver chain.
3.2.3.6 Transmitter Control
The radio uses a complex H8 software-based algorithm to dynamically control the transmit power of the radio. The
inputs to the power control algorithm are: requested power level (0.1W, 0.5W, 1W, 2W, or 5W), PA calibration
data in the EEPROM, supply voltage BATMON (used for monitoring), transmit frequency, PA current, (used for
monitoring), and PA temperature (used for monitoring).
The power control algorithm takes these inputs and uses them to control the following outputs to provide a steady
RF power output with a clean rise and fall at switch on/off.
Output Description
PWRSET (DAC1 output A) Sets the power level in the power amplifier ALC loop
PABIAS1 (DAC1 output B) Adjusts the bias in the final driver stage
PABIAS2 (DAC1 output C) Adjusts the bias in the final driver stage
3.2.3.7 TX/RX Switching
The procedure needed to quickly switch the transceiver from receive to transmit and back again is to shut down the
current mode, lock the synthesizer in the new mode on the new frequency, and enable the transmitter or receiver, as
required.

GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE 3-5
3.2.3.8 Receiver Scanning
In some scanning modes it is necessary for the radio to scan a number of channels looking for traffic, as controlled
by the H8 software. The basic requirement is to change the synthesizer frequency, RXVTF, synthesizer tune DAC,
and to resume searching on the new frequency. The DSP may have to be informed of new traffic settings on which
to search, for each new frequency. Scanning is interrupted when the DSP detects a signal of interest.
3.2.4 DC Power Control
The H8 controller software controls the power supply switching in the radio. The control software algorithm uses
the following inputs:
Input Description
/PWROFF Indicates the current position of the radio on/off switch and the accessory connector off line
WRU Indicates if the radio is fitted into a harness providing external power
/LBOUT Indicates the supply voltage is at the minimum required for correct operation
BATBUS Not used in the mobile configuration
BATMON Indicates the voltage on the main radio supply from external power source
These inputs are used to control the following FPGA outputs:
Output Description
PWRHOLD Set during normal operation, the radio stays on regardless of the on/off switch. When
PWROFF indicates that a switch off is required, software shut down is executed followed
by a release of this output
BATOFF Not used in the mobile configuration
Additionally the /LBOUT interrupt is used to execute a fast shutdown of the software when the supply voltage drops
below that needed for normal operation, or when the power source is removed without switching the radio off.
3.2.4.1 Power Supply Frequency Control
The power supply software controls the switch mode power supply frequency output according to the RF frequency
used. The frequency is checked and changed if necessary at every synthesizer frequency change.
3.2.5 Monitoring
The H8 software monitors the following signals:
Signal Description
Out-of-lock In all active modes, every 100 ms
EPTT/RTS In all modes, every 20 ms
RSSI In receive modes, every 100 ms
WRU In all modes, every second
DC voltage In all modes, every 5 seconds
PA temp In transmit modes, every second
REF temp In all modes, every 5 seconds
PA current In transmit modes, every second
3.2.6 Radio Control Drivers
A number of low-level software drivers are used by H8, which interface to the transceiver hardware.
3-6 GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE
3.2.6.1 Audio and Power Supply Unit (PSU) Driver
A serial interface driver controls the output bits of a serial-to-parallel output shift register in the FPGA. Clock and
data source for this shift register is the same serial port used for the user interface serial bus, but data is directed to
the shift register using high-order H8 address lines.
3.2.6.2 Transceiver Serial Bus Driver
A serial interface driver controls the transceiver shift register, DAC, and synthesizer. It uses a common clock and
data line, and three separate strobe lines for each device.
3.2.6.3 DSP Host Driver
The H8 software includes a DSP host driver for controlling the DSP mode of operation, and initial start-up code
download.
3.2.6.4 IIC Bus Driver
The H8 software includes a driver that allows the controller software to read and write to the transceiver EEPROM
using IIC protocols. The two lines are general-purpose I/O lines controlled on a bit-by-bit basis by the software.
3.3 Digital Signal Processing
The DSP software implements all baseband signals processing in the radio. It processes signals between the user
audio and data interface, and the transceiver modulation and intermediate frequency (IF) interfaces. The signal
processing provides compatible analog FM modes, common air interface (CAI) compatible modes, and 12 kbps
secure CVSD modes.
3.3.1 DSP Transmit Chain
Signal processing while the radio is transmitting depends on the radio's operational mode. The possible modes are
clear analog voice FM, CVSD DES voice, Project 25 clear digital voice, and Project 25 DES digital voice. The
Transmit DSP Chain block diagram is shown in Figure 3-2. The major signal processing functions of the DSP
transmit chain are described in the following paragraphs.
3.3.1.1 Audio Coder/Decoder (CODEC)
The Guardian uses a Texas Instruments® TLV320-AC36 audio CODEC. Data is transferred to and from the
CODEC using the DSP enhanced synchronous serial interface (ESSI) 0 port. The data word is 16 bits long. The
first thirteen bits are the two’s compliment audio sample, and the last 3 are the volume control word in the receive
direction (DIN), and zero padded in the transmit direction (DOUT). The DSP currently sets volume control bits for
no attenuation. Scaling the signal prior to sending it to the CODEC controls the volume. The sample rate from the
CODEC is 8 ksps.
3.3.1.2 Audio Processing Board
The Audio Processing board receives audio input from the audio CODEC, applies filtering and automatic gain
control (AGC), and transmits it to the mode-specific formatting module. The audio filter has a passband from
300 Hz to 3 kHz. This board also transmits DTMF tones to the audio CODEC. DTMF over-dial is supported to
allow redirection through the phone network via a base station. Data is transferred to and from the CODEC under
interrupt service routine (ISR) control.
3.3.1.3 Project 25 Voice Module
The Project 25 Voice module performs framing and conversion tasks. The framing function uses its own task table
to build a CAI time-division multiple access (TDMA) frame. This includes compression of the voice signal using
the IMBE VOCODER, forward error correction, and encryption. The physical layer task converts a 4.8 ksps dibit
data stream into a 48 ksps real sampled waveform, which is then fed to the Modulation module. The physical layer
scales each dibit symbol so that the proper frequency deviation is attained. It applies raised cosine filtering for
control of inter-symbol interference.

3.3.1.4 CVSD DES Module
Audio data from the Audio Processing module is sent to the audio circular buffer. The sample rate is increased from
8 ksps to 12 ksps. The CVSD encodes the data and sends it to the transmit CVSD audio circular buffer. The data is
DES-encrypted and differentially encoded before sent to the physical interface buffer. The CVSD physical layer
converts the CVSD encoded, DES encrypted 12 ksps data stream into a 48 ksps waveform suitable for processing by
the Modulation module. The module contains a finite impulse response (FIR) raised cosine filter that acts as an
interpolation filter. Transmitting an end of message (EOM) indicator, consisting of 160 ms of alternating ones and
zeros, signals the end of a transmission. This allows the receiving radio to squelch the audio output before the radio
stops transmitting.
3.3.1.5 Analog FM Module
Audio data entering the Analog FM module is sent through a linear-phase, FIR, audio-shaping filter. Interpolation
from 8 ksps to 48 ksps is accomplished using a linear-phase, FIR filter. A single-quadrant sine look-up table (LUT),
using fractional addressing and quadrant folding, generates continuous tone controlled squelch system (CTCSS)
tones. If the DCS audio turn-off code is transmitted, the tone is fixed at 134.4 Hz and the codes transmitted at a rate
of 134.4 bps, derived using the CTCSS tone generator. The DCS data stream passes through a raised cosine filter
before added to the speech. The 8 ksps audio stream, with CTCSS/DCS controls, is interpolated to 48 ksps before
sent to the Modulation module.
3.3.1.6 Modulation Module
The Modulation module prepares the signal for transmission. The signal is split into a reference oscillator signal and
a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) signal. This allows independent scale and offset values for each signal. A
modulation-balance variable scales the reference oscillator voltage, so that the maximum frequency deviation is
constant for all RF channels. A transmit modulation variable does the same for the VCO signal.

3.3.1.7 Transceiver Interface
The transceiver DAC has four output ports, two of which modulate the carrier. One of the two channels maintains
carrier frequency accuracy. On transmit channel changes, the controller provides the DSP with two fractional values
used to scale the two signals output from the DAC. The controller provides the DSP with an additional integer value
at one second intervals, and is added to one of the DAC output signals to control carrier frequency accuracy. The
modulation interface receives modulation data samples at 48 ksps, independent of the transmit mode. When the
radio is operating as a transmitter, the transceiver interface controls the operation of the DAC via ESSI 1 on the
DSP. Data is written to the DAC at 96 ksps.
3.3.2 DSP Receive Chain
The radio receive chain hardware consists of an RF transceiver board, analog to digital converter (ADC), a
Motorola® DSP 56302 or DSP 56309, and an audio CODEC. The Receive DSP Chain block diagram is shown in
Figure 1-3. The major signal receive functions of the DSP receive chain are described in the following paragraphs.
Figure 3-3: Receive DSP Chain
3.3.2.1 Transceiver
The RF transceiver board performs mixing and filtering of the received signal to produce a 455 kHz, 25 kHz
bandwidth (BW), IF signal. The output signal from the transceiver is digitized by the ADC and fed to the DSP. The
bulk of signal processing is performed by the DSP. An ISR that implements the transceiver/ADC/DAC interface is
called at a rate of 96 kHz in receive modes. The ISR reads ADC output data, stores the values in a circular buffer,
and controls data transmission to the DAC.
3.3.2.2 FM Demodulator
The FM demodulator converts the FM output of the transceiver to a real-valued, baseband signal. FM demodulation
is implemented by a discriminator task. Sub-sampling the 455 kHz IF at 96 kHz folds down the signal to 25 kHz. A
mixing function mixes the sampled IF data in the input buffer before filtering. For 12.5 kHz channels, a second

filter is applied to the IQ data stream. Calculating the angular difference between consecutive IQ pairs demodulates
the received signal.
3.3.2.2.1 Analog to Digital Converter
Because the signal BW is much less than the 455 kHz carrier frequency, the ADC sub-samples the 455 kHz IF
producing a frequency translation as part of the sampling process. The ADC sampling rate is 96 ksps.
3.3.2.2.2 25 kHz Frequency Translation
The 25 kHz frequency translation converts the signal image into a baseband signal, centered at 0 Hz. The DSP
implements the digital equivalent of a mixer to perform frequency translation.
3.3.2.2.3 IF Filtering
The complex baseband signal is sent through two linear phase FIR filters. The first IF filter is used as a decimate by
two, polyphase, FIR filters and applied to the 96 ksps, complex, baseband output of the 25 kHz mixer. This filter
removes some of the out-of-band noise produced by the nonlinear analog components of the transceiver. CVSD
DES and analog wide modes have a 25 kHz BW and the first IF filter is the only filtering performed for these
modes. Project 25 and analog narrow modes have a 12.5 kHz BW. The second IF filter provides the filtering
required for these modes and is applied to the 48 ksps output of the first IF filter.
3.3.2.3 Signal Detectors
The radio uses three signal detectors to detect the presence or absence of a modulated signal in the tuned channel.
These signal detectors search for Project 25, analog FM (including noise, CTCSS, and DCS), and CVSD DES
signals.
3.3.2.3.1 Project 25 Detector
The Project 25 frame detector detects a Project 25 signal by searching for the frame synchronization (FS) signal and
network identifier (NID) embedded in the preamble of every Project 25 data unit. The detector uses this information
to perform bit recovery and packet identification. It processes and buffers the binary data for use by the Project 25
Voice Module. Once a target signal is detected, the radio disables squelch using an enable transmit function, so the
user can monitor the signal. If the detected signal is lost, squelch is enabled by the shutdown active receive
function.
3.3.2.3.2 Analog FM Detector
The analog FM detector uses a function to decimate the incoming data stream by six, to run the noise detector,
CTCSS single-tone detector, CTCSS multi-tone detector, and the DCS multi-code detector. A noise squelch detect
function detects the appearance of a carrier by searching for a drop in power in a frequency band just above the
audio band. In the analog noise detector, the input data is scaled and high-pass filtered, then rectified and scaled
again. Then the data is low-pass filtered. The output of the low-pass filter is used to determine whether or not a
signal is present.
The detector has two states, searching and locked. If the detector state is searching and the detected power drops
below the lower squelch threshold, the detector state transitions to locked. Conversely, if the detector state is locked
and the detected power rises above the upper squelch threshold, the detector state transitions to searching. Upper
and lower threshold values are BW dependent and can be adjusted at run time.
The multiple-value DCS detector searches for a 134.4 bps bit stream in the sub-audible frequency band used for
DCS codes. If found, the code is extracted and appropriate state variables updated. Code extraction is performed in
two steps: input data is converted to a binary bit stream, and then data extraction and code comparisons are
performed.
The conversion of the input data to a binary bit stream starts with the 8 ksps input data sent through a decimate by
six, FIR filter to produce a 1.33 ksps, real valued data stream. This filter removes any signal energy outside of the
sub-audible frequency band. The data is then split into two paths. The lower path estimates the dc content of the
signal with a narrow low-pass infinite impulse response (IIR) filter. Subtracting the lower path signal from the
3-10 GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE
upper path signal removes the dc component from the upper path signal. Following this, the resulting signal passes
through a single-bit quantizer and the output buffered for use by the code removal step. Data extraction and DCS
code comparisons are then accomplished.
3.3.2.3.3 CVSD DES Detection
Detection of CVSD DES waveform is performed by a secure detection function. This function also recovers the
12 kbps bit stream from the 48 ksps input signal. The detector looks for a 12 kbps data stream to determine if a
CVSD signal is received.
3.3.2.4 Project 25 Voice Module
The physical layer task extracts FS, NID, SS symbols, and data. All other dibits are passed to the receive framing
task. The module performs recovery and symbol extraction based on frame synchronization using a correlation
detector. Symbol extraction and error-correction decoding follow carrier frequency offset compensation.
VOCODER data and Project 25 framing data is removed and secure mode decryption performed. The VOCODER
converts the compressed voice data stream to a 8 ksps audio data stream that is sent to the Modulation module.
3.3.2.5 Analog FM Module
The analog FM module performs two tasks. The detection task uses an FIR filter to down-sample the FM
demodulated bit stream from 48 ksps to 8 ksps. It then uses four detectors (noise, single-tone CTCSS, multi-tone
CTCSS, and multi-code DCS) to determine signal squelch. The post-detection audio-shaping task applies de-
emphasis on/off filtering to a received clear analog signal.
3.3.2.6 CVSD DES Module
The CVSD DES module consists of a 12 kbps clock detection/recovery task, a 12 kbps symbol resolver, a
differential decoder, a DES decoder, a 12 kbps CVSD decoder, and a 12 ksps to 8 ksps sample rate converter. The
input to the clock detection algorithm is a 48 ksps data stream, representing the sampled FM demodulated carrier.
To allow for variation in carrier frequency, the dc component of the demodulated carrier is removed before zero-
crossing detection. From a zero-crossing phase profile, a decision can be made whether a 12 ksps data stream is
present on the demodulated carrier, or a 12 kHz clock recovered for usage within the 12 kbps symbol resolver.
Differential encoding of the binary FSK modulation ensures compatibility between manufacturers, so that either a
positive or negative frequency shift can be used to represent a 1 symbol. In the CVSD receive chain, differential
decoding precedes one-bit cipher feedback DES decoding. To conserve memory and aid processing efficiency, all
symbols (encoded and decoded) are packed in memory. The 12 kbps CVSD decoder is modeled after FED-STD-
1023.
The decoder consists of a modulation level analyzer (MLA), a syllabic filter, a pulse modulator, a principal
integrator and a comparator. The output of the CVSD decoder is at 12 kbps and must be changed to 8 ksps for
output by the CODEC.
3.3.2.7 Audio Processing Module
An audio receive task function and an audio filter is used to output Project 25, clear analog, or secure analog speech
samples to the CODEC. When in active receive modes, the ISR is enabled and the task outputs data to the CODEC
circular buffer as data is written to it’s audio input circular buffer.
3.3.2.8 Audio CODEC
The audio CODEC and the DSP interface uses the DSP ESSI 0 port. The serial clock to the CODEC operates at
2.048 MHz, and is derived from the DSP internal clock. ESSI 0 is configured to operate using a frame rate divider
of 16 and a word length of 16 bits, transmitting packets of encoded audio to the CODEC at 8 kHz. The CODEC is
used in a linear decode mode, where 13 bits are used to represent the full audio range. The post-processed DSP
signal is fed to the audio CODEC, which converts the signal to an analog waveform, applies gain, and routes it to
the appropriate output device.
GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE 3-11
3.3.3 DSP Software
The program data for the DSP is stored in 64K Flash program blocks. The data is stored as unpacked bytes. The
blocks used for the DSP software are dedicated so that selective upgrades of this code only are possible.
3.4 Keypad MPU Software
3.4.1 Overview
The keypad microprocessor unit (MPU) provides an indirect interface via the Motherboard to the DTMF keypad and
front panel switches. It communicates with the main controller via a synchronous bi-directional serial link.
3.4.2 General
The software is designed so that processor activity and current consumption is minimized. The only continuous
operation required is keypad scanning and switch reading. An external clock at 1.5 MHz clocks the keypad. The
hardware reset is supplied from the main controller.
3.4.3 Keypad Scanning
The keypad scanning software continuously scans the keypad at a rate of a row every 10 ms. A debounce period of
40 ms is used on key presses and key releases. The software deals with simultaneous key presses and key rollovers,
making only single key presses valid. Debounced and validated key presses are passed to the serial data output
buffer.
3.4.4 Push-to-Talk (PTT) Input
Inputs from the momentary input switches, and the PTT and auxiliary keys, are read every 10 ms and are debounced
for 40 ms. The validation software filters out simultaneous presses of the auxiliary keys and the key rollover
between them. Simultaneous presses of the PTT switch and one auxiliary key are allowed. Debounced and
validated auxiliary key presses and PTT press and releases are passed to the serial data output buffer.
3.4.5 Switch Input
Inputs from the rotary switches and toggle switch are read at least every 40 ms. Changes in state are debounced for
100 ms. Debounced new switch positions are passed to the serial output buffer.
3.4.6 LED Output
The outputs to the LED are controlled under instruction from the serial port. It is possible to set both outputs off, set
the red LED on, set the green LED on, set both LEDs on (orange), and to flash either or both on a 50% duty cycle at
a controlled rate of approximately 1 Hz.
3.4.7 Backlight Control
The two LCD backlight controls for setting bright and dim operations are controlled under instruction from the serial
port. The keypad uses a fixed level backlight operation. A timeout facility switches off the backlight after
30 seconds if not requested by the main controller.
3.4.8 Serial Interface
The keypad controller implements a synchronous bi-directional serial interface using its serial port allowing it to
interface to the main controller. The main controller always sources the serial data clock. To allow autonomous
transfers from the keypad controller, a separate keypad interrupt line is provided with the interface. The interrupt
line is used to request 8 clocks from the main controller to transfer data from the keypad. The LCD chip select (CS)
input line is used to distinguish between serial data for the keypad controller and LCD driver. The serial interface
supports the following transfers:
• Keypad to controller including:
3-12 GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE
Keypad power up okay
Keypad error 1-n
Key press 1-16
Key release 1-16

Emergency key press
• Controller to keypad
• Request current switch status
• Reset and execute BIT test
• Backlight off/bright/dim
• LED off/red/green/yellow/flash/flash rate
• Key press request and interrupt acknowledge
LCD data transfers are in blocks of 80 bytes maximum, allowing a pause on the serial interface at least every 100 ms
for the keypad MPU to assert the interrupt and transfer key press or switch change data. During the LCD data
transfers, the key data are buffered into the keypad MPU.
3.5 Data Interface
The DSP incorporates a user data interface through its SCI port.
3.5.1 CAI Data Interface
The DSP supports an asynchronous data interface for CAI modes using its SCI port. This interface conforms to the
CAI data peripheral interface. It uses standard V24, and RS232 baud rates up to 9600 baud. The software also
controls the associated flow control signal data of the terminal ready (DTR) input to the DSP, and the clear to send
(CTS) output from the DSP. The request to send (RTS) input to the radio for this interface is processed by H8.
3.5.2 Synchronous Serial Data Interface
The DSP supports a 12 kbps synchronous serial port using its SCI port. The interface is half duplex, uses a DSP
generated clock, and includes minimum data buffering within the DSP and RTS/CTS flow control on the transmit
function.
3.5.2.1 Receiver Synchronous Serial Data Buffering
In receive synchronous serial data modes the DSP software uses a variable length first-in first-out (FIFO) buffer to
cope with differences in clock rates between the transmitter and receiver.
3.5.3 CAI Data Link Layer
This software provides the link between the raw voice and data bit streams, in addition to the data formats required
to implement a 9.6 kbps CAI compatible interface.
3.5.3.1 CAI Transmit Voice Mode
The DSP software takes the 144 bit voice code words (encrypted or not) and a number of link control fields set by
the host H8 or from the DES system, and formats CAI-compatible logic link data units.
3.5.3.2 CAI Transmit Voice Test Modes
The DSP software is capable of transmitting the CAI voice silence test pattern, the CAI 1 kHz test pattern and a
9 x 144-bit (1296) PRBS test pattern used for error rate tests. The H8 controller controls these test modes.
GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE 3-13
3.5.3.3 CAI Receive Voice Mode
The DSP takes the 9.6 kbps CAI-compatible data stream and framing, and splits out the voice data for passing to the
VOCODER. The DSP decodes the link control words so that the host H8 can read the link control fields, and the
encryption synchronization information is available to the encryption process. CAI receive processing is initiated by
the frame synchronization correlator trigger. When this is asserted the next 64 bits of network identifier (NID) data
are decoded and checked. If the NAC code matches the one selected for the channel, voice or data processing
proceeds, otherwise the physical layer is forced into search mode.
3.5.3.4 CAI Receive Voice Test Mode
The DSP software is capable of testing the 9 voice code words received in a CAI frame against a known 9 x 144
PRBS segment. The total number of errors in that frame is then output to the H8 controller. The H8 controller
controls this test mode.
3.5.3.5 CAI Transmit Data Mode
The DSP selects the user data (encrypted or clear) and a number of link control fields set by the host H8 or from the
DES system, and formats logic link data units compatible with the CAI at 9600 bps.
3.5.3.6 CAI Receive Data Mode
The DSP selects the 9.6 kbps CAI-compatible data stream and framing, and splits out and decodes the data for
passing to the user data port. The DSP decodes the link control words so that the host H8 can read the link control
fields, and the encryption synchronization information is available to the encryption process.
3.5.4 Transmit Physical Link Layer
This software uses common modulator interface software and a number of mode-dependent, physical link layer
software modules.
3.5.4.1 Transmit Modulation Interface
The software provides a common interface to the dual modulation, DAC in the transceiver through its SSI serial port
1 for all transmit modes. In transmit modes, the SSI uses an externally sourced clock at 3072 kHz. This interface
takes frequency deviation samples at 48 kHz, and writes each value scaled by a fixed number set by the host to both
the reference oscillator DAC and the VCO DAC. Additionally a host-controlled dc offset is added to the reference
oscillator DAC value.
3.5.4.2 Transmit CAI Physical Link Layer
This software takes the 9.6 kbps CAI-compatible data stream and converts it to 48k samples of frequency deviation
data. To achieve this the software implements the dibit for symbol mapping, Nyquist, and shaping filters as
described in the CAI.
3.5.4.3 Transmit Analog FM Physical Link Layer
This software takes the 8 ksps filtered audio and converts it to 48 ksps of frequency deviation data compatible with
TIA/EIA-603 in 12.5 kHz and 25 kHz modes. The signal processing uses additional high-pass filtering to reduce the
energy in the DCS tone band, audio band pre-emphasis if required, DCS tone addition, and deviation limiting and
smoothing. The software is capable of operation in 12.5 kHz, and 25 kHz channel spacing with appropriate
deviation scaling. It is capable of appending a phase reversed tone burst of 180 ms as defined in EIA-603,
generating DCS and audio turn-off codes, and companding the voice signal in 12.5 kHz mode.
3.5.4.4 Transmit CVSD Physical Link Layer
The transmit CVSD physical link layer converts the 12/16 kbps CVSD data stream and converts it to 48 ksps of
frequency deviation data. The software implements a pre-modulation filter with raised cosine time response and
100% eye height.
3-14 GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE
3.5.5 Receive Physical Link Layer
This software uses common FM demodulation software, and mode-dependent receiver physical layer software
modules.
3.5.5.1 Receive ADC and DAC Interface
In receive modes SSI port 1 is used in a duplex manner to allow the ADC to be read continuously at 96 kHz and the
DAC written up to 48 ksps for AGC and reference oscillator adjustment. In receive modes, the SSI port is clocked
at 1536 kHz from an external clock source, using a 16-bit cycle. At every cycle a value is read out of the ADC. At
every other cycle a value may be written to one of the DAC channels to control the AGC and reference oscillator.
3.5.5.2 FM Demodulator
This software provides a common interface to the 96 ksps IF signal at SSI port 1 and produces 48 ksps of frequency
deviation data for use in all modes. The SSI port uses an external clock at 1536 kHz. The software implements an
FM demodulator function using a quadrature mix with a 24 kHz (Fs/4) local oscillator, dual I and Q channel filters,
and a frequency estimator. The channel filtering function is programmable-dependent on the channel spacing used.
The channel filtering provides the adjacent channel filtering in addition to that provided by the hardware to achieve
the radio adjacent channel rejection performance.
3.5.5.3 Receive CAI Physical Link Layer
This software takes the 48 ksps of frequency deviation data and outputs a 9.6 kbps data stream. The software
implements an integrate and dump filter and data slicer as described in the CAI. The integrate and dump filter is
controlled by a clock recovery function that selects one of ten possible phases for output to the slicer. The slicer
incorporates an averager with a time constant of at least 100 bits, to correct for dc offsets in the received signal.
In parallel with the above, a FIR correlator searching for the CAI fixed framing sequence of 24 symbols operates on
the filtered 48 ksps of frequency deviation data. The correlator operates at 10 samples per symbol. The correlator
phase with the highest correlation peak selects the clock phase for use in the integrate and dump filter and slicer.
This correlator operates continuously when searching for CAI traffic and occasionally when tracking an CAI signal
when subsequent frame syncs are expected. The correlator trigger is used to provide a framing signal for the
subsequent CAI link layer processing.
3.5.5.4 Receive Analog FM Physical Link Layer
This software takes the 48 ksps frequency deviation data and outputs 8 ksps of audio to the receive audio processing.
Software signal processing implements a high-pass filter to remove CTCSS tones and de-emphasis if required. The
gain of the signal path is adjusted to cope with the different deviations used on different channel bandwidths. The
signal processing signal path is controlled by squelch signals. The software includes audio expanding to reverse the
transmit companding.
3.5.5.5 Receive CVSD Physical Link Layer
This software takes the 48 ksps frequency deviation data and outputs 12/16 kbps serial data. The software uses a
data filter, a slicer, and a clock recovery function.
3.5.6 DES Encryption
The DSP software implements DES encryption of traffic in the CAI and CVSD modes.
3.5.6.1 DES Kernel
The DSP software implements the DES encryption kernel as described in FIPS 46-2, encrypting 64 data bits using a
56-bit key. It uses output feedback operation or a single bit cipher feedback operation.
GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE 3-15
3.5.6.2 CAI Encryption
The DSP software uses DES kernel software to implement the CAI encryption of voice traffic as described in
TIA/EIA/IS-102.AAAA. The key manager supplies the encryption key. In transmit, the message indicator (MI)
vector is passed to data link processing for encoding and transmission. In receive, the data link layer decodes the MI
vector, and fly wheeled if decoding fails for up to n frames.
3.5.6.3 DES Data Link Layer
This software encrypts and decrypts the 12 kb of CVSD data using the DES kernel. During transmit, framing
synchronization data and the MI vector are inserted into the data stream. In receive, the software searches for and
extracts the framing and MI data. Bit definitions and formats are defined in the DES protocol.
3.5.6.4 Key Interface
This software provides an interface for inputting DES encryption keys from the DSP SCI port using synchronous
data transfers with an external clock, and for conforming to the Motorola KVL data transfer mechanism and the CAI
DES keyfill protocol.
3.5.6.5 Key Bank
The radio maintains a bank of up to 16 encryption keys stored in Flash memory. Associated with each key are a key
ID, key data, and an 8-character alphanumeric tag. Each encrypted channel is assigned one of the 16 keys for both
secure transmit and secure receive modes. Channel key assignment is accomplished by selecting the corresponding
key tag. Upon entering the secure transmit or secure receive mode, H8 transfers the appropriate encryption key to
the DSP through the SCI port.
3.5.7 Host Interface
The DSP is controlled through its host interface by H8. It initially boots up through this interface. The host
interface is used for DSP mode control, encryption key transfer, link control data transfer, low-rate data transfer,
frequency variable data transfer, CTCSS mode control, and initial software download.
3.5.8 Flash Interface
The DSP has direct access to the main radio Flash memory through the H8 bus arbitration logic. This interface is
used for software downloads using byte-wide direct memory access (DMA) transfers under host control for mode
changes. The DSP software does not write to Flash memory.
3.5.9 Paging
The DSP software is designed so that normal operation does not involve off-chip bus accesses. This means the code
size must be limited to 24K words and the data memory to 10K words. A number of program images that
correspond to different modes are allowed, with paging of images out of Flash by the DMA at mode changes. The
minimum subdivision of images corresponds to the following modes, and a continuously resident core host interface
function.
• Initialization/POST
• Receive 12.5 kHz
• Receive 25 kHz
• Transmit 12.5 kHz
• Transmit 25 kHz
• Keyfill
The paging DMA mechanism is controlled by the host H8 and allows the transfer of a program image within 50 ms.

3-16 GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE
3.5.10 Hardware Control
The DSP software controls the DSP clock rate through the phased locked loop (PLL) output divider. The DSP clock
rate is dynamically matched to the mode of operation, in coarse steps for example, between searching and tracking
receive modes. The DSP software uses low-current wait modes in pauses between processing to minimize current
consumption. The host is also able to request a very low-current idle mode in the DSP. The host releases this mode.
3.6 Controller Software
3.6.1 Overview
The controller software has overall control of the radio; including user interface operations, and the DSP and
transceiver. Figure 1-4 is the controller software block diagram.
Figure 3-4: Controller Software
3.6.2 Environment
3.6.2.1 General
The H8 controller system is designed for minimum external bus activity and minimum current consumption. These
features are provided by the maximum use of low-current standby modes in H8, and an interrupt-driven architecture,
with a minimum of input polling. In radio standby and receive modes the only H8 tasks are the control of the
transceiver frequency and DSP mode as the radio scans and economizes. The most H8-intensive activities are
associated with user interactions, and operations on the fill/program/control port.
3.6.2.2 Scheduler
H8 operates with a simple scheduler that launches tasks after interrupt events. A time base interrupt of 10 ms is
used to keep track of time and poll inputs at regular intervals.

3.6.2.2.3 Watchdog
A regular watchdog service task is scheduled to prevent the H8 watchdog controller from overrunning, and a
hardware reset from occurring. The target watchdog timeout is 100/200 ms.
3.6.2.3 Start-Up Software
3.6.2.3.1 Boot Block Start-Up Software
The minimum simplest start-up software is provided in the boot block of the Flash. This software holds the keypad,
DSP, user interface, and FPGA in reset, and then establishes whether a valid H8 program image exists in the
program blocks of the Flash. If no valid program exists, a simple alarm sounds. The boot block software includes a
minimum basic BIT facility to check the code itself, and the internal and external random access memory (RAM).
The boot block code includes the software to allow programming of the program blocks through the PC serial port.
3-18 GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE
3.6.2.3.2 Full Start-Up Software
If a valid H8 program image exists, the full start-up code executes. This involves initializing RAM, DSP, keypad,
user interface, FPGA, transceiver, etc., executing the start-up BIT, and transferring control to the main scheduler.
3.6.2.3.3 FPGA Configure Software
At start-up H8 configures the FPGA using data from the main Flash memory and transferring it via a synchronous
serial bus to the FPGA.
3.6.2.4 Shut Down Software
At normal shut down when the front panel on/off switch is off, the H8 software executes a clean shut down to the
transceiver, DSP, and user interface (UI), saves any usage data to the Flash, and releases the main power supply. In
cases where the power is removed, the low-power interrupt executes a minimum fast shut down, saving RAM data
as required, with no Flash update.
3.6.2.5 Debug Driver Software
The H8 controller includes software to implement an asynchronous serial port on two input/output (I/O) pins of H8.
Facilities provided include the ability to monitor particular radio variables, and to control specific variables. This
port allows PC serial access to the board during board-level factory testing, through the test connector.
3.6.3 Radio Store
All functional areas of the controller software, including the user interface, access the radio data store, fill control,
and radio software.
3.6.3.1 Physical Data Storage
The radio data is physically stored in 4 devices, all devices are accessible by the controller software.
3.6.3.1.1 H8 Internal RAM
The H8 controller has 2K x 8 of internal RAM. This data is not retained when the radio is switched off or the power
is removed. It is used for short-term storage of frequently accessed variables, stack workspace, etc. to minimize bus
activity when the H8 controller is running. The internal RAM is used as program space from which to execute
during some Flash update operations.
3.6.3.1.2 External RAM
H8 is provided with an external 128k x 8 bit RAM that is backed up for at least 30 seconds when the radio power is
removed, and at all times when a external power is applied with the radio switched off. This device is used as a
variable data expansion area, and stores specific user-entered data that must be retained over power interruptions
(unlock password, etc.).
3.6.3.1.3 Flash ROM
H8 has a 512k x 16-bit Flash read-only memory (ROM) used primarily for program storage. Data in the Flash is
retained permanently. Different areas of the Flash have different characteristics. The boot sector is a 16k block
used for the reprogramming software and the radio serial number. The data in this sector is programmed or block-
erased only in the factory.
The Flash has 15-64k and 6-8k program blocks that can be block-erased and programmed by the boot block code
during normal reprogramming operations, without special equipment and without opening the radio. These blocks
are used for H8 and DSP operating software, radio fill data, and FPGA programming data. The Flash has two small
8k parameter blocks used for changing data that must be stored indefinitely, such as user specific settings and usage
data.

GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE 3-19
3.6.3.1.4 Transceiver EEPROM
The radio transceiver has an 8k x 8 serial EEPROM for storing transceiver calibration data. This data is set during
production testing for the specific transceiver. The data in this device is essentially constant and is never written to
by the main controller. At switch on, contents of the EEPROM are copied into the external RAM; EEPROM is not
accessed during normal operation.
3.6.3.2 Data Types
The controller software uses a number of different data types.
3.6.3.2.1 Volatile Variables
Variable data used by the H8 controller that is not retained when the radio is switched off, is stored in the H8
internal RAM and the external RAM.
3.6.3.2.2 Short Term Stored Variables
Variable data retained while the radio is switched off or the power is interrupted, is stored in the external RAM.
3.6.3.2.3 Permanent Stored Variables
Variable data retained indefinitely is stored in the parameter blocks of the Flash. Every time this data changes, a
parameter block must be erased, and the new data written into the now blank parameter block.
3.6.3.2.4 Radio Fill Data
The frequencies, modes, and power levels are associated with different channels programmed into the radio. This
data is programmed into the radio through the fill port.
3.6.4 Program/Fill/Control Interface
The controller provides a serial port for PC access to allow the following functions:
Function Description
Programming To update radio software
Filling For modifying the radio data store of modes and frequencies, etc.
Control For controlling the radio operating mode
3.6.4.1 Radio Programming
The controller software allows reprogramming of the Flash memory program blocks, on a block-by-block basis.
During these operations, the controller executes from the boot sector of the Flash and no radio or user interface
operations are possible. After a programming operation, cycle the power on the radio. Programming operations are
initiated on receipt of a specific serial message on the PC serial port.
3.6.4.2 Radio Fill
The controller provides the facilities to modify the system, group, bank, and radio global data through the PC serial
port. This interface provides the following facilities:
Facility Description
Radio erase Delete all fill data in the radio
Selective erase Delete (mark as deleted) specific systems, groups, and banks (for
future use)
Radio fill Add specific systems, groups, banks, and global data to the radio store
Radio read Export the fill data contents of the radio store to the PC

3-20 GUARDIAN VHF 110W MOBILE
All transfers and operations on the fill port are cyclic redundancy checked (CRC) and acknowledged.
3.6.4.2.1 Cloning
The radio can export channel data to other radios. Data export is initiated by a user interface operation at the
exporting radio. The exporting radio emulates a PC programmer during the data transfer. Cloning of keyfill data
is not allowed.
3.6.4.2.2 Radio Keyfill
The DSP software manages the radio keyfill protocols.
3.6.4.3 Radio Control Port
It is possible for an external PC to control the functioning of the radio. This provides the following facilities:
• Radio status read to export the radio serial number, revision status, history, usage, etc.
• Set external control mode
• Set radio transmit frequency, power level, and mode
• Set radio receive frequency and mode
The transceiver mode control also allows transmission of 1 kHz test tones in analog modes, and BER test patterns in
digital modes. The receiver mode control allows the continuous (every 0.5 second) output of the bit error count per
frame in digital modes.
3.6.4.4 PC Serial Port Driver
The controller software controls the H8 serial port to implement the asynchronous data formats and baud rates
(9,600, 19,200, and 38,400) for the PC serial port. The serial port driver software also controls the 232OFF signal to
maintain the RS232 in its low-current standby state, except when data is driven out and while RTS is asserted.

Shadow Channel: The radio of primary channels, each of which can have up to 7 shadow channels. A shadow
channel has the same transmit and receive frequencies, options, and transmit power levels as its primary channel.
Individual shadow channels can be configured for different channel types (analog or digital), BW (12.5 or
25 kHz for analog channels), squelch modes, P25 NACs (digital channel only), and encryption key (only one primary
or shadow channel can have CVSD DES enabled). When properly configured, shadow channels can be created to
allow a user to hear all transmissions on a receive/transmit frequency regardless of channel type, BW, squelch mode,
or encryption. Shadow channels are created and their settings edited using the PC programmer.
Talk Group Identifier (TGID): Selective squelch for the digital mode, used to group users into functional teams.
Transmit Inhibit and Override: A feature that stops users from talking over other radio conversations. There are
three options: CARRIER prevents transmission if any activity is detected on the channel, TONE prevents
transmission on an active channel with a squelch code other than your own, and NAC prevents transmission on an
active channel with the same NAC. There is a quick-key override feature available that allows a user to override the
transmit inhibit state by quick-keying the radio (i.e., 2 PTT presses within a short time frame).
Transmit Timeout: Prevents inadvertent or prolonged transmit operations.
User Interface: The same as a man-machine interface.
Zone: A group of channels. There is a maximum of 16 zones per radio and each zone can contain up to 16 channels.
Three zones can be selected using the toggle switch or 16 zones selected by the radio keypad.
Zone Scan List: A group of zones in a bank designated as active scan list zones. Zones are added or deleted from
the scan list using the PC programmer or the radio’s keypad.
