Measuring Antenna Height
Thereceivercalculatesthecoordinatesoftheantenna’sphasecenter.
Todeterminethecoordinatesofthestationmarker,specifythe
following:
• Measuredheightoftheantennaabovethestationmarker
• Methodofmeasuringtheantennaheight
• Modeloftheantenna/receiverused
Anynecessaryantennaphasecenteradjustments,basedonthe
antennamodel,isautomaticallyapplied.Thisadjustment,when
combinedwithaccuratelymeasuredheightandmeasurement
methods,allowsforcorrectlycomputedreferencemarker
coordinates.
Toaccuratelymeasuretheantennaheight:
1. Measuretheantennaheightabovethecontrolpointor
marker,eithertheslantheightortheverticalheight.
YoumayeithermeasuretheverticalheighttotheAntenna
ReferencePoint(ARP)locatedatthebottomofthereceiver
atthebaseofthemountingthreads,ormeasuretheslant
heightto
theSlantHeightMeasurementMark(SHMM)on
thesideofthereceiver,asshownontheright.
2. Recordtheantennaheight,pointsname,andstarttimein
thefieldnotes.
