  • Automatic Measurement of Rf Signal Spatial Properties and Antenna Patterns
    AUTOMATIC MEASUREMENT OF RF SIGNAL SPATIAL PROPERTIES AND ANTENNA PATTERNS Ing. Michal VAVRDA, Doctoral Degree Programme (2) Dept. of Radio Electronics, FEEC, BUT E-mail: [email protected] Ing. Ivo HERTL, Doctoral Degree Programme (2) Dept. of Radio Electronics, FEEC, BUT E-mail: [email protected] Supervised by: Dr. Zdeněk Nováček ABSTRACT Radio frequency signal measurement site is described in the presented paper. It enables direction setting by antenna rotator and signal frequency scanning and consequently measuring the parameters using a receiver. The site has two basic uses: measuring of antenna pattern; scanning and locating of RF signal. The site and its operation are made universally, the accuracy depends of rotator quality and parameter amount depends of receiver type. 1 INTRODUCTION The current development in wireless communication requires powerful technologies for antenna testing and signal measuring. Sophisticated devices measure plenty signal parameters, but there is not simply site, which combines the use of these devices with antenna rotator system for measuring the spatial properties of signal also. In this work the site for scanning, locating and measuring of radio frequency signal and measuring and testing the spatial properties of antennas is designed. It consists of antenna system, antenna rotor, receiver and control unit (rotator controller, PC and operating software). The antenna system and receiver type both has to be chosen depending on the measuring conditions (service, frequency band, bandwidth, polarisation, etc.). The locating accuracy is increased with antenna directivity but the necessary number of measuring directions is also increased. The antenna rotor quality determines the accuracy of location.

The rotator is to have the capability to be manually controlled (press button switch) or software driven. It should incorporate safety stop switches as well as position and speed sensors in order to achieve smooth movement and correct stopping position. The basic principle needs to be studies are speed control using the microcontroller, exact angle of position movement, and stoppable motor can be done in time due to emergency cases. As larger load is applied to the device, the large inertia will need to be compensated to achieve a good dynamic.

  • C-Band TWG-1 Best Practices Annexes
    ANNEX D Approved June 4, 2020 Terrestrial-Satellite Coexistence During and After the C-Band Transition Technical Work Group #1 Scope of Work 1. Preventing Interference 1.1. Emphasize the need for the FCC to complete its review of the pending C-Band incumbent earth station registration and modification applications in IBFS. 1.2. Agree on relevant data necessary for protection of Earth stations. (All 3.7 GHz Service licensees need to work from a common list of Earth stations.) 1.3. Understand best practices that 3.7 GHz Service licensees use to predict whether the FCC- specified power flux density (PFD) limits will be exceeded at earth station locations. 1.4. Agree on a common method for converting between PFD and power spectral density (PSD) at the Earth station. 1.5. Understand the nature of the Earth station receive filters to ensure that they will be adequate to reject 3.7 GHz Service signals below 3.98 GHz over a range of environmental conditions in order to ensure that the FCC-specified blocking PFD limit is met. 2. Interference Detection 2.1. Develop a procedure for earth stations to positively identify or exclude sources of interference. This procedure should rapidly eliminate non-3.7 GHz Service causes and initiate the inter-service interference resolution process. Consider whether a detection and alerting mechanism could be automated, particularly for major Earth station facilities. 2.2. Develop estimates of distances between 3.7 GHz facilities and earth stations beyond which interference is unlikely. 2.3. Develop a process for positively identifying or excluding sources of 3.7 GHz interference.

  • Antenna System for a Ground Station Communicating with the NTNU Test Satellite (NUTS)
    Antenna system for a ground station communicating with the NTNU Test Satellite (NUTS) Beathe Hagen Stenhaug Master of Science in Electronics Submission date: July 2011 Supervisor: Odd Gutteberg, IET Norwegian University of Science and Technology Department of Electronics and Telecommunications Problem Description NTNU is planning to develop and launch a student satellite named NUTS. This satellite will need a ground station for transmitting commands and receiv- ing telemetry. The ground station will be located at NTNU premises, utilizing the existing antenna pedestal. The task is to analyze, design, build and test a scale model antenna system for this ground station. The work should focus on an array antenna consisting of either 2 or 4 helical elements. The preliminary specications are Center frequency: 437 MHz. Bandwidth: The bandwidth should as a minimum, cover the actual am- ateur frequency band [435-439 MHz], as well as the anticipated Doppler shift. Antenna gain: Approximately 12 - 20 dB. The actual gain will be based on the revised link budget. Interface: Compatible with the receiver/transmitter to be used. Steerability: 0 - 360 degrees in azimuth and 0 - 180 degrees in elevation. Environmental specication: Operational wind velocity: 15 m/s. In addition to designing and building the antenna system, a feasibility study of the various available tracking systems should be carried out. Assignment given: February 2011 Supervisor: Odd Gutteberg, IET Preface This document is my master thesis carried out in the spring of 2011 at the De- partment of Electronics and Telecommunication (IET) at the Norwegian Uni- versity of Science and Technology (NTNU). NTNU is the third university to join the ANSAT (Norwegian Student Satellite Program), and the goal with ANSAT is to have three student satellites launched before the end of 2014.
