ITU-R SM.1840 recommends 1 that for cases in which the sensitivity of radio monitoring receivers using analogue-modulated signals is specified by administrations, the measurement method in Annex 1 should be used. Annex 1 Test procedure for measuring the sensitivity of radio monitoring rec

18、eivers using analogue-modulated signals 1 General aspects This Annex provides the definition of a test procedure to determine the sensitivity of a radio monitoring receiver. The sensitivity depends on: the noise figure; the modulation type; the frequencies used for the test; the IF bandwidth used fo

19、r the test; the SINAD value; the modulation frequency; the modulation index (for AM); the frequency deviation (for FM); the preamplifier settings; the temperature prevailing during the tests. Furthermore, to correctly assess the sensitivity: the measurements have to be done over the whole frequency

20、range of the receiver; a worst value of the sensitivity must be specified and published by the manufacturer in the data sheet over the receivers whole operating range. Since sensitivity values are frequency dependent the manufacturer can choose to additionally specify the sensitivity for selected fr

21、equency bands or ranges; a mean value (the arithmetic mean of a number of test measurements) may also be indicated; the published sensitivity values have to be valid over the entire temperature range indicated in the data sheet. Limitations, if any, have to be mentioned in the data sheet. 2 Basics o

22、f the sensitivity measurements The sensitivity of a receiver is defined as the minimum signal level (V, dBV or dBm) at the input of the receiver for demodulation and audio listening of the received signal. The minimum audible signal with acceptable quality shall be determined by a SINAD measurement.

23、 Rec. ITU-R SM.1840 3 A modulated test signal, generated by a signal generator, is inserted into the antenna input of the receiver. An audio analyser is connected to the audio output. The principle of this measurement is to reduce the signal level at the signal generator until the SINAD value is rea

24、ched. The SINAD value is measured on the audio analyser. The measurements must be done over the whole frequency range by tuning the signal generator and the receiver to the test signals with the frequencies f1, f2, . fn. AM modulation for HF and VHF/UHF band The sensitivity level is then indicated a

25、s: Sensitivity (AM) X at (preamp. “on”) 6 kHz bandwidth 12 dB SINAD fmod = 1 kHz m = 0.5 FM modulation for HF band The sensitivity level is then indicated as: Sensitivity (FM) X at (preamp. “on”) 8 kHz bandwidth 20 dB SINAD fmod = 1 kHz f = 2.4 kHz FM modulation for VHF/UHF band The sensitivity leve

26、l is then indicated as: Sensitivity (FM) X at (preamp. “on”) 15 kHz bandwidth 20 dB SINAD fmod = 1 kHz f = 5 kHz where: X is the measured sensitivity, indicated in V (or dBV or dBm) the bandwidth used is indicated the SINAD value is indicated the modulation frequency is 1 kHz the modulation index m

27、for AM the frequency deviation f for FM. The measurements must be done over the whole frequency range by tuning the receiver to the test signals with the frequencies f1, f2, . fn. Per octave at least two frequencies being evenly distributed over the full frequency range of the receiver have to be ch

28、osen. The receiver must be set up under normal operating conditions. If an input attenuator exists, it must be switched to 0 dB attenuation. The automatic gain control (AGC) must be switched on during the tests. If a switchable preamplifier exists, the measurements must be done in the condition “pre

29、amplifier on”. The condition “preamplifier on” may also be expressed as “high sensitivity mode” or “low noise mode”. 4 Rec. ITU-R SM.1840 3 Definition of a test procedure for measuring the sensitivity of radio monitoring receivers using analogue-modulated signals In addition to the general aspects a

30、nd basics stated in 1 and 2 above the following definitions for the measurements apply: The measurements have to be done for the two main modulations modes AM (A3E) and FM (F3E) at the test frequencies f1, f2, . fn. Selection of the test frequencies as stated in item No. 2. Settings of the signal ge

31、nerator for AM in the range 9 kHz-3 000 MHz: Modulation mode AM Modulation frequency 1 kHz Modulation index 0.5 for FM in the range 9 kHz-30 MHz: for FM in the range 20-3 000 MHz: Modulation mode FM Modulation mode FM Modulation frequency 1 kHz Modulation frequency 1 kHz Frequency deviation 2.4 kHz

32、Frequency deviation 5 kHz Settings of the receiver for AM: Modulation mode AM IF bandwidth 6 kHz for FM in the range 9 kHz-30 MHz: for FM in the range 20-3 000 MHz: Modulation mode FM Modulation mode FM IF bandwidth 8 kHz IF bandwidth 15 kHz If the recommended IF filter bandwidth is not available in

33、 the receiver, the next higher filter bandwidth must be chosen. The audio filter used for the measurement needs to be specified. Settings of the audio analyser: The audio analyser must be set to the measurement mode “SINAD”. The psophometric audio filter (ITU-T Recommendation P.53) in the audio anal

34、yser must be switched on. Measurement procedure Increase the signal generator level until a stable SINAD value of approx. 30 dB is displayed on the audio analyser. Rec. ITU-R SM.1840 5 Reduce the signal level until the SINAD value has reached 12 dB (for AM) or 20 dB (for FM). The corresponding level

35、 value read on the signal generator is the sensitivity of the receiver. 4 Units conversions If the sensitivity value is expressed in V it must be converted to dBm with: Value (dBV) = 20 log value (V) e.g. for 1V: 20 log 1(V) = 0 dBV Value (dBm) = Value (dBV) 107 e.g. for 0 dBV: 0 dBV 107 = 107 dBm assuming an input impedance of 50 .
