Appendix II IL. Equipment Setup and Calibration General Figures II—1, II—2, and II—3 show block diagrams of the main instrument systems for this test project. This appendix section will describe the essentials of the equipment and the implementations used. The equipment shown in the figures includes, respectively, the Northpoint transmitter, the repeater, and the field measurement equipment or receiver system. The transmitter and repeater systems were installed at fixed locations for the test, and the receiver system was implemented as a mobile field station for use in monitoring and assessing the DBS satellite and Northpoint signals at numerous geographical locations in the test area. 1. Transmitter System The Northpoint Transmitter (NPTx) of Figure II—1 is comprised of the following main components: a. Transmitter unit —— LNR Communications, Inc. model DVE—Ku—1 s/n 164, 1 watt power amplifier w/ digital encoder, QPSK modulation and power level control —— Items (30), (31), (32), (33). b. Seavy Engineering custom horn antenna w/ 10 dB gain, horizontal polarization, 110 degree horizontal beam width and 17 degree vertical beam width —— Item (35). c. Andrew EW127 14 wave guide sections with four WR75 flanges —— Item (34). d. Video sources —— Item (40). Video signal sources during the test consist of local signal sources (camera or color bar generator) and of live signal feeds from certain local TV stations, depending on the project phase, as described in the report text. e. Directional Coupler —— Item (35). Used to monitor the transmitter power output during transmitter operation. The HPE4418B / HPE4412A power meter/sensor unit was used to calibrate the NPT‘x and then to monitor the power during transmitter operation during the tests. A notebook PC computer was employed to log the power meter readings every few seconds via a GPIB interface with the HP power meter. Setup and Operation The transmitter was installed on the roof of the USA Today building, with the transmit antenna overhanging the parapet and suspended four feet below the roofline of the building. This installation scheme provided some natural shielding of the Northpoint

Appendix II signal toward the region behind the antenna and on the rooftop so as not to interfere with roof mounted DBS receiver antennas that were in close proximity to the transmitter. The antenna was pointed in a southerly direction along an azimuth of 113 degrees, with zero degrees of beam tilt. The antenna height was approximately 400 feet AGL. The transmitter was operated at a nominal power level of 12.5 dBm EIRP and with a typical cartier frequency of 12.47 GHz. The effective operating band corresponds to transponder 18 for all pertinent DBS satellites. The transmit data rate was 27647128 bps for a baud rate of 20000050 symbols per second and a transmit bandwidth of 24 MHz. A manual log was kept of the transmitter operation, including ON/OFF times and output power. In addition, a digital computer file of output power vs. time was produced and archived. Calibration On initial setup, the transmitter was calibrated by connecting the HP power meter directly to the output port at the antenna input and in place of the antenna. The power was adjusted so that the Effective Isotropic Radiated Power (EIRP) would be 12.5 dBm when using an antenna with a gain of 10 dBi. The antenna was replaced and the directional coupler output sample was measured with the power meter to determine the value corresponding to the 12.5 dBm output level. The corresponding monitor output level was determined to be —1.5 dBm. This sample was then monitored during the test work and the power was adjusted as required to maintain the intended output level. 2. Repeater System The Northpoint Repeater (NPRp) of Figure II—2 consists of the following main items: a. LNR custom repeater unit with in—line attenuator, upconverter, and power amplifier (maximum 2 watts power output), with F (75 ohm) input for L—Band signal, and with WR75 flange output —— Items (22), (23). b. Band Pass filter in L—Band signal path for band limiting signals and noise produced by the receiving antenna —— Item (24). c. Seavy Engineering custom horn antenna w/ 10 dB nominal gain, horizontal polarization, 110 degree horizontal beam width and 17 degree vertical beam width —— Item (35). d. Channel Master 0.9 meter receiving antenna and LNB, with L—Band output —— Item (20). The HPE4418B / HPE4412A Power Meter / Sensor Unit was used to calibrate the NPRp.

Appendix II Setup and Operation The repeater system was installed atop a 10 story apartment building in the Ft. Lincoln area. The repeater unit assembly with transmit antenna was placed on the building parapet, and the receiving antenna was located below the parapet in a position to provide adequate input to output isolation. The receiving antenna was pointed toward the NPTx system. The transmit antenna was pointed at an azimuth of approximately 225 degrees, with zero beam tilt. The antenna height was approximately 125 feet AGL. The pointing direction was such as to direct the repeater output back into the primary service area cell, in order to facilitate worst—case performance tests in regard to overlap of the repeater and the main transmitter signal. During the appropriate test phase, as described in the report text, the repeater was operated continuously when in use, producing an output signal when the NPTx signal was present. Calibration The repeater was calibrated by connecting the HP power meter to the WR75 output port (via a flange to N adapter). With the NPT‘x transmitter ON, the repeater attenuator was adjusted to produce an output power of 2.5 dBm. The transmit antenna was then replaced for operation of the repeater. The L—Band signal was initially monitored with a spectrum analyzer to assess the stability and input/output isolation with the repeater in the operating mode. 3. Receiver System The Receiver/Test System is described as shown in Figure II—3. Four each DBS antennas were used in order to simultaneously monitor the NPT‘x signal and each of the three satellites: Direct TV —101 (DTV), Echostar — 61.5 (ES1), and Echostar — 119 (ES2). Signal from the DBS antennas were transmitted by four each RG—6 coax cables (75 ft. length) to the receiver and monitoring systems. Each signal is connected to an appropriate IRD (DBS Receiver) via a power splitter. The alternate output of the splitter for each signal channel is used for sampling and monitoring the signal with the HP8563E spectrum analyzer or the Newtec demodulator box. A video/audio monitor is connected to the IRD for each signal channel used. In the diagram, 5 signal channels are shown, with splitters and IRD‘s 0 through 5. The channel to signal assignments as shown in the block diagram were consistently used, except as specifically stated otherwise in the logs. Antenna connections were assigned and logged for each measurement according to the cable number. The system component list is as follows: a. Four each DBS antennas RCA/ DSA1IOORW with 18 inch dish, specially calibrated to determine the gain over isotropic. The tags identify the antennas used: DBS1, NP2, NP3, NP4. b. Five each L—Band Power Splitters. xi

PC Notebook Computer with software interface for the Newtec demodulator (in— house special package provided by Newtec). k. Related cables as described in the figure. 1. Motor—Generator unit —— Honda EZ2500 —— 2500 watt, for AC electrical power. Setup and Operation The mobile Receiver System was implemented in a 15 passenger Ford van. A towable hydraulic boom lift was used to implement the antenna platform. The four DBS antenna mounts were installed on specially constructed platforms on the boom lift carriage, with one antenna at each of the four corners of the carriage basket. Signal cables were routed along the boom to allow for elevated operation of the boom when needed for NP signal acquisition. A specially modified DBS antenna mount was used for the NP antenna to allow for the lower elevation angles normally required for the terrestrial signal. A motor— generator was mounted on the boom lift frame and used for electrical power for the system. This mobile unit was used to acquire the test data for most measurement sites in the test, except for sites not accessible by the van (e.g. building rooftops). In cases of such inaccessible sites, the appropriate equipment was removed from the instrument van and hand carried to the site and assembled and used. Calibration The four antennas and the related signal channels were calibrated in terms of the equivalent gain over isotropic, in order to allow for quantitative assessment of the signal and the signal spectrum as viewed by the spectrum analyzer. D. R. Word Associates specially calibrated the four DBS antennas used. xi

Appendix II The four DBS antennas were found to agree in gain to within 1 dB, and the average gain at the LNB outputs is 90.4 dB over isotropic. For the system conditions in use, the signal transmission elements of concern to the calibration are as follows: a. Cables —— (—6 dB). b. Splitters —— (—4 dB). c. Cables (*) to SA —— (—0.6 dB). Thus, the gain calibration at the end of the cable to the Spectrum analyzer (*) in the figure is 79.8 dB over isotropic. For the HP8563E spectrum analyzer (SA), the input impedance is 50 ohms, and a matching pad was used to monitor the DBS signals with 75 ohm output impedance. The matching pad insertion loss is 5.7 dB, requiring a gain correction of —5.7 dB for the SA readings. The overall system gain as applied to the SA readings is 74.1 dB over isotropic. Xxill
