Transceiver unit The transceiver provides up to 832 channels with 30 kHz channel sepa-
ration (45-MHz duplex spacing).
During transmit operations, the transceiver unit digitizes, compresses,
and modulates the voice signal, then amplifies the signal for transmis-
sion to the nearest BTS. The transceiver transmits in the frequency range
824.04 to 848.97 MHz at an RF power output of 3 watts.
During receive operations, the transceiver amplifies, demodulates,
decompresses, and converts from digital to analog the received signal
from the BTS. The transceiver unit receives in the range of 869.04 to
893.97 MHz with a receiver sensitivity of <-116 dBm.
