a. System gain = Tx power output - receive threshold.
b. Configurations:
NP = nonprotected transmitter and receiver
NP/SD = nonprotected transmitter, space diversity receivers
HS = hot standby transmitters, protected receivers
HS/SD = hot standby transmitters, space diversity receivers
ST/SD = split transmitters/space diversity receivers; separate main (transmit and receive) and space
diversity (transmit and receive) antennas.
FD = Frequency diversity transmitters and receivers.
FD/SD = Frequency diversity transmitters, space diversity receivers or hybrid diversity receivers.
c. System gain is 1 dB lower for LL6 GHz band (5860-5915 MHz).
d. For HS, thresholds are for RCVR 1 (main); thresholds for RCVR 2 (standby) are approximately 6 dB
higher.
