What is MW
transmission?
Microwave transmission refers to the
Advantages of MW.
High frequency small size of antenna
High frequency narrow beam width
Narrow beam width no interference and
high bandwidth
Easy in relocation
No bad effects on humans.
Link planning
The design and construction of a microwave radio link
network is based on a number of factors. These include:
Distance between microwave radio terminals
Terrain properties, eg bodies of water, cliffs, forests, snow
Frequency of operation, often governed by licensing costs,
frequency availability, planned distances and even
suspectibility to rain fading.
Fading, dispersionand multipath distortion.
Size of antennas, feedline properties, need for towers etc.
Council and community development permissions
governing visual intrusions.
Cost of equipment and cost benefit analysis including
equipment maintenance.
WHY NEC???
High efficiency/Quality and reliability.
low power consumption
Temperature resistable.
User friendly
Easy software/HW installation.
Software is simple and easily understandable.
Different modulation schemes avaialable.
High system gain/high spectrum effieciency.
Can use freq from 6 GHz upto 52 GHz.
IF cable.
IF cable is an intermediate frequency cable
cancellor).
Details of link
configurations.
Unprotected 1+0 link has one 1+0 IDU, one IF
XPIC
PASOLINK NEO can improve its transmission
Line of Sight.
LOS should be clear because MW transmission
is point to point transmission and if the dishes
are not aligned to each other then better RSL
will not be achieved and more closer RSL near
threshold RSL, the higher will be the risk of
link fluctuation.
E1 capacity.
the b/m E1 capacity Equipment is commonly
used here.
4 E1
16 E1
48 E1
63 E1 (STM-1)
2 x STM-1 capacity can be obtained using
XPIC technology.
C-Node is used to add/drop media in SDH like
63 E1 Pasolink NEO as the media is totally
synchronous.
Softwares
The b/m softwares are used.
PNMT (for pasolink)
PNMTj (for pasolink NEO) java version.
Software installation will be taught directly
during training.
Interference Test.
Send one team to one end and other team to far end.
Both should have laptops and softwares in it in
working conditions.
Now one team will turn off the IDU and the team at
its far end will check RSL which should be -100 dbm.
Take snap shot of RSL after a few seconds.
Similarly second team will turn off IDU and first team
will take check RSL.
If RSL is not -100 then share the snap shots with your
Regional Transmission support Engineer along with
dish sizes, dish heights, etc. for both ends.
equal to 1U.
All cables and tributaries should be tight and laid
properly.
Weather proofing should be done properly.
Dishes should be locked properly after activities.
Correct labeling should be done on everything from IDU
to dish.
Two meter IF cable should be looped on tower behind
antenna .
