A method and transmission system for amplifying and providing navigation signals. The system comprises a splitter circuit configured to receive a plurality of radio frequency (RF) signals oscillating at at least two different frequencies fand f. The splitter circuit is further configured to split and forward the RF signals having the ffrequency to a first bandpass filter and the RF signals having the ffrequency to a second bandpass filter. The system further comprises a first tunable amplifier configured to receive the RF signals from the first bandpass filter. The system further comprises a second tunable amplifier configured to receive the RF signals from the second bandpass filter at substantially the same time as the first tunable amplifier's receipt of the RF signals from the first bandpass filter. The first tunable amplifier is further configured to amplify its RF signals across a first band centered around the frequency f. The second tunable amplifier is further configured to amplify its RF signals across a second band centered around the frequency f. The amplified RF signals are fed substantially concurrently into a mixer circuit for transmission via an RF antenna to a navigation receiver.

Agile navigation transmitter system that includes a single amplifier system

A direct digital synthesis transmitter that uses a programmable digital circuit to generate a digital signal representing at least one radio frequency signal, the generated signal is filtered, amplified by an amplifier, and provided to a transmission antenna without upconversion. The transmitter generating the digital signal at a desired output frequency range such that a frequency upconverter is not needed to produce signals in the desired radio frequency range.
