Abstract

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.
