Introduction
Satellites are a quite new and growing way to improve different ways to communicate all over the world. In order to establish this communication, signals must be transmitted between a satellite and the ground station. To be readable on the two ways, these signals must comply some specifications and to check that this is the case, we can use for example a signal analyser.

Simulation
First we decided to design our signal analyser and to test it with simulated signals generated automatically such as sine wave.
To do this we first created a VI able to generate a noisy signal. This signal correspond to the addition of three basic signals and a white Gaussian noise. For each basic signal we can set the signal type, the frequency, the amplitude and the offset. For the noise, we can set the noise standard deviation.
Consequently we can insert the noisy signal into our signal analyser to test it.

Definition of inputs and computation models of the outputs
Simulation
Generation of a noisy signal + analogic and digital measurements ⇒ do the results match what is expected ?
Expected issues when we move to the acquisition of the real signal ?
