Availability

Carrier-to-Noise Ratio

MTBF MTBF MTTR MTTR MTBF MTTR

C dB RSLdbm N dB N
Ex. If the carrier to noise ratio requirement for a receiver with a 10 MHz noise bandwidth is 15 dB, what is the minimum receive carrier power?

A = availability U = unavailability MTBF = Mean time between failures Mean time to repair Ex. A microwave system has an average downtime of 14 hours. What is its availability if the average uptime after repairs is 175 hours? Unavailability?

Reliability R = (1-Outage) x 100 Ex. A microwave system has an outage of 0.1%. Calculate its reliability.

Antenna and Feedline Equivalent Noise Temperature

Ta

( L 1)290 Tsky L

Ta = equivalent noise temperature of antenna, K L = loss, unitless Tsky = effective sky temperature, K Ex. In a microwave system, the antenna sees a sky temperature of 180 K, and the antenna feedline has a loss of 3 dB. What is the noise temperature of the antenna system, referenced to the receiver input?
