Down converter LO
This field allows definition of the local oscillator frequency in the
connected downconverters.
For domo supplied downconverters, this should be set as follows:
1880MHz for S band transmissions (2.28 to 2.55GHz)
1700MHz for L band transmissions (1.15 to 1.4GHz).
Down converter LO side
This field allows definition of the local oscillator side.
For domo supplied downconverters, this should be set as follows:
LOW for S band transmissions (2.28 to 2.55GHz)
HIGH for L band transmissions (2.28 to 2.55GHz)
OFDM Bandwidth
This field displays the width of the received OFDM signal and should be
set to 2.5MHz for normal SOLO4 system operation, and should be set
to 8MHz for normal SOLO2 system operation.
OFDM Guard Interval
In this field the user selects the guard interval which matches the
transmitter. For SOLO4 systems typically a guard interval of 1/16 is
used, however on very long range transmissions a guard interval of 1/8
may be employed. For SOLO3 systems typically a guard interval of
1/32 is used, however on very long range transmissions a guard interval
of 1/8 may be employed.
OFDM Mode (Status Only)
This field displays the COFDM constellation that is being demodulated
at the receiver. In normal operation this will match that selected at the
transmitter.
OFDM FEC (Status Only)
This field displays the COFDM FEC (Forward Error Correction) that is
being demodulated at the receiver. In normal operation this will match
that selected at the transmitter.
Input SNR (Status Only)
For each IF input, the SNR (Signal to Noise Ratio) is reported. Values in
the order of 18dB to 22dB represent strong received signals, whilst
values in the order of 5dB represent poor received signals which will
likely give rise to decoding errors.
