OPTION DESCRIPTION
; ; ;
Signal Quality
Signal Quality Indicator
Displays the quality of the input signal as a bar. The longer the
bar, the stronger the signal.
The indicator may be used to position the antenna to obtain
optimal signal quality.
; ;
Eb/N0
Bit Energy Level
Provides an estimation of the input signal strength (bit energy)
relative to the noise level (spectral density).
Number is given in dB.
NOTE
For a proper reading, wait one minute for value stabilization.
; ;
Link Margin
Link Signal Margin Display
Displays the margin between the input signal strength and the
link margin standard (as per Error Performance Requirements;
EN300.421 for QPSK input link, and
EN301.210 for DSNG input link.
Number is given in dB above (+dB) or below (-dB) the link
margin standard.
;
Signal Level
Input Signal Level
Displays the signal level at the RF input to the receiver.
Number is given in dBm.
;
Signal Spectral
Density
Input Signal Spectral Density Level
Displays the signal spectral density at the RF input to the
receiver. Number is given in dBm /Hz.
; ;
Viterbi Bit Error
Rate
Viterby Bit Error Rate (BER) Indication
Indicates BER level measured after Viterbi correction.
;
R-Solomon Bit
Error Rate
Reed-Solomon Bit Error Rate (BER) Indication
Indicates BER level measured after Reed-Solomon correction.
;
Pseodo Random
Bin Seq
Pseodo Random Binary Sequence Detection
Checks and displays detection of the Pseodo Random Binary
Sequence data in the DSNG packet and the test results.
Displays one of the following messages:
Not Available: Test data not detected.
RCV: [# error bits detected] [test time (sec)]
AIS: [# error bits detected] [test time (sec)]
