RFP: General Radio Frame Pattern Chapter 10
RADWIN 2000 User Manual Release 2.6.40 10-9
The tables describe the efficiency of the air interface according to the RFP type, radio prod-
ucts mix, services and channel bandwidth. The tables may also be viewed in the RADWIN
Manager and in the Link Budget Calculator for both WinLink 1000 and RADWIN 2000. The
efficiency of the air interface will vary according to the product used
.
Legend:
Best fit - optimal RFP choice for TDM and Ethernet services.
Available - available RFP for TDM and Ethernet services, but not optimal.
N/A - service unavailable
Select the RFP that gives you the Best Fit or Available for required system services and
select the channel bandwidth accordingly.
RFP: General Radio Frame Pattern
When setting the RPF, the following considerations should be borne in mind:
• When synchronizing RADWIN 2000 units you must use RFP B or E
• If you mix RADWIN 2000 and WinLink 1000 units in a collocated site, you must use
RFP B or E
• Selection of the RFP influences the capacity, latency and TDM quality
• RFP influences capacity and latency. Jitter buffer configuration can be used to set the
TDM quality (see the User Manual, Chapter 5, TDM Services selection)
• Using the Link Budget Calculator, you can see the affect of the RFP on the Ethernet
throughput.
RFP: RADWIN 2000 Considerations
• The performance of RADWIN 2000 radios that operate with RFPs B or E can be seen
in the Link Budget Calculator.
• For RADWIN 2000 C series: If the HSS Master works in asymmetric Tx/Rx ratio, then
all other collocated RADWIN 2000 units must operate in the same Tx/Rx ratio. In this
case the ratio will be fixed and not automatic-adaptive.
