Due to the increase in volume and speed of data transmissions in recent years, the demand for high-speed satellite communication solutions has increased. This thesis investigates the possibility of making a receiver for satellite radio based on an Analog Devices ADC evaluation board. To do this, evaluation boards for each component were acquired and tested individually before connecting them. The system components include an I/Q demodulator, a local oscillator, and an ADC. Using these components a system design for the radio receiver has been proposed, and its performance analyzed. The SNR of the designed system was measured to26 dB. This performance was deemed to be sufficient for a signal using the BPSKmodulation scheme.
