A SeliCSof satelliteandtenestn“alpropagationmeasurementswereconducklon 15and 16December,1994in the vicinityof theJet PropulsionLaboratory(JPL),PasadeU Califomi&in supportoftheVOMPL DBS-Radioprogram.Thereasonfor includingterrestrialmeasurementswas the possibleuseof terrestrialboostersto improvereceptionin somesatellitedigitalaudiobroadcastingsystemserviceareas.

The signalsourcesusedweretheNASATDRSsatellitelocatedat 171degreesWestand aterrestrialtransmitterlocatedon a highpointon JPLproperty.Bothsignalswereunmodulatedctiers near2.05GHz, spaceda few lcHzapartso thatbothcouldbereceivedsimultaneouslyby a singlereceiver.Anunmodulatedsignalwas usedin orderto maximizethedynamicrangeof thesignalstrengthmeasurement.Arangeof greaterthan 35 dB wasachievedwiththesatellitesignal,andover50 dB wasachievedwith thetemestrialsignalmeasurements..

Three testcourseswereusedto conductthemeasurements:●

2. Test Confisruration

Thereceivingsystemconjuration for theautomobilemountedequipmentis shownin Figure 1.Thereceivingantema wasa bifilarhelixwitha gainof 8 dBiat25 degrees’elevation.Thiswas followedbya lownoisearnp~ler and a receiverwhichconvertedthesignalto theaudiofkquency rangebetween2.5kHzand 7.5 kHz.This signalwasrecordedon a digitalaudiotape (DAT’)recorderat a samplingrate of 48kHz.Postprocessingwas thenusedto falteranddetectthesignalamplitudeandphase.The resultantdatawasprovidedat a samplerateof 1000samplesper second.

Theconfigurationusedindoorswasthesameexceptthat theantennawasomnidirectional,withapproximatelyOdBi gain.

Allof the outdoortestsalso includedrecordingwithtwo vehiclemountedvideocameras,onefacingforwardand theothera fisheyelensfacingup.A globalpositioningsystem(GPS)receiverwas usedto recordvehicleposition,speedand heading.

l%e directionto thesatellitewas248compassdegrees(SouthofWest)andthe elevationanglewas22 degrees.Thedirectionto theterrestrialtransmitterwasgenerallyto theNorthor Northwest,

3.1.Pasadena Run 1- SatelliteSismal.

ThePasadenalongpathwas usedin a previoustesh in mid 1994,to test theperformanceof theVOA/JPLDBSReceiverwith‘IT)RS.Signaldrop-outswereexperienceddue to blockageby buildingsandtrees.The signalstrengthmeasurementshowedsharpsignaldropsduringblockage,butbeinga wide bandmeasuremen~it couldnotachievea dynamicrangeof morethanabout10dB. The mainpurposeof theDecember1994testrun 1wasto retestthispath witha muchwiderdynamicrangesignalmeasurement.

Becauseof transmkion at a lowerelevationangle, the terrestrialsignalsuffersmuchmoremultipaththanthe satellitesignal.In additionthereis a greaterchanceof terrainblockage.Run 6 startedonthehillnearthe terrestrialtransmitsite.In the initialparLhorn 10:43to 10:49,thesignalwas blockedbythe ridgeuponwhichthe transmitterwas located.Thereare also indicationsof signalblockageby terrainat11:12and at 11:19.

Figures9 and 10showthereceivedsatelliteand terrestrialsampledsignalsfor run 7.

Figure11showsthereceivedterrestrialsignalaveragedwitha onesecondrunningaverage.Thisshowsthatmuchof the signalfluctuationstructureseen in Figure10is of a shorttermnature,a goodindicationthat signalfluctuationsare causedby multipath.Multipatheffectscan be overcometo someextentbyantennadiversity.

The averageattenuationof the terrestrialsignalover the testcoursewasnot excessive. Since it ispossibleto have largertemestrialsignaltransmitterpower,the useof wideareaterrestrialboostersforaugmentingsatellitesignalreceptionat S-bandappearspromising.
