The corner reflector around the test antenna is used to reduce the effect of reflections from the opposite wall and from the floor and ceiling in the case of horizontally polarized measu

3、rements. Similarly, the comer reflector reduces the effects of reflections from the side walls for vertically polarized measurements. For measurements in the lower part of the frequency range (below approx. 175 MHz) no corner reflector or absorbent barrier is needed. For measurements in the higher p

4、art of the frequency range, no corner reflector is needed if use is made of a horn radiator or a parabolic antenna. For practical reasons, the h/2 antenna in Figure 1 (T/R 20-03) may be replaced by an antenna of constant length, allowing it to be used at frequencies corresponding to a length between

5、 h/4 and h, as long as the sensitivity is sufficient. In the same way the distance of h/2 to the apex may be varied. The test antenna, test receiver, substitution antenna and calibrated signal generator are used in a way similar to the general method. To ensure that errors are not caused by the prop

6、agation path approaching the point at which phase cancellation between direct and the remaining reflected signals occurs, the substitution antenna shall be moved through a distance of f 10 cm in the direction of the test antenna as well as in the two directions perpendicular to this first direction.

7、 If these changes of distance cause a signal change of greater than 2 dB, the test sample should be resited until a change of less than 2 dB is obtained. 4. TRANSMITTER 4.1. Frequency error 4.1.1.

Adjacent channel power Definition The adjacent channel power is that part of the total output power of a transmitter modulated under defined conditions of modulation which falls within a specified passband centered on the nominal frequency of either of the adjacent channels. This p

24、ower is the sum of the mean power produced by the modulation, hum and noise of the transmitter. Methods of measurement General Two methods are proposed, the results of which are equivalent. The member Administrations of CEPT are requested to use one or both of these methods. The method applied shall

25、 be stated in the test reports. Note. When using the test fixture for this measurement, it is important to ensure that direct radiation from the transmitter to the power measuring receiver or spectrum analyser does not affect the result. Method of measuring using a power measuring receiver The adjac

Operations (a) The transmitter shall be operated at the carrier power determined in Clause 4.2. under normal test conditions (Clause

27、2.3.). The output of the transmitter shall be linked to the input of the receiver by a connecting device such that the impedance presented to the transmitter is 50 ohms and the level at the “receiver” input is appropriate. In the case of equipment with integral antennae the equipment shall be placed

28、 in the test fixture (Clause 3.4.2.) and operated at the carrier power (Clause 4.2.) under normal test conditions (Clause 2.3.). The radio frequency output of the test fixture shall be applied to the input of the receiver, at a level that is appropriate. (b) With the transmitter unmodulated), the tu

46、lowing values: (a) 16 kHz for adjacent channel spacing of 25 kHz; (b) 14 kHz for adjacent channel spacing of 20 kHz; (c) 8.5 kHz for adjacent channel spacing of 10/12.5 kHz, with a tolerance of f 10%. The centre frequency of the bandwidth within which measurements are to be made shall have a separat

47、ion from the nominal carrier frequency of the transmitter equal to the channel separation for which the equipment is intended. The adjacent channel power is the sum of the power relative to the useful signal and of the noise in the appropriate bandwidth. This sum may be calculated or an automatic po

48、wer level integrating device may be used to obtain it (see Clause 4.3.2.3.3.). In the latter case, the relative power level of the carrier and its sidebands is initially measured by integration in the appropriate bandwidth, centred on the nominal frequency. The integration is repeated at this bandwi

49、dth centred on the nominal frequency of the adjacent channel and the input level of the carrier signal increased until the same power level at the output of the device is obtained. The difference in the input levels, in dB, is the ratio of the adjacent channel power to the carrier output power. The adjacent channel power is determined by applying this ratio to the carrier output power as measured in Clause 4.2. or by a direct substitution measurement using a calibrated source. The measurement shall be repeated for the other adjacent channel. O Edition of September 15, 1988 4.3.2.3.2
