Power Measurement in decibel (dB)
• Decibel (dB) is a way of expressing power level as a ratio between two signals
Gain (dB) = 10 log (P2 / P1)
• Conventionally gain is expressed as positive dB value while attenuation or loss is expressed as negative dB value or negative gain.
• Decibels can also be expressed relative to a reference power value such as dBW, dBm.

Transmit Reject Filter (TRF)
• TRF helps to block any leaking transmit signal out of OMT from overloading the LNB. It is usually a piece of waveguide with internal resonator elements
• Sometimes TRF is integrated into the OMT or feed system, or even into the LNB.
TRF

What is a Waveguide?
• Waveguide is a hollow tube that carries microwave signals. Design to be used at a higher frequency, it has much less loss than coaxial cable.
• Waveguide connectors are called flanges. Connections between waveguides are made by inserting bolts through holes around the flanges.
![Page 17: Ut installation review](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042906/58a987d91a28ab412d8b5647/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Orthogonal Mode Transducer (OMT)
• OMT is a combiner that connects both the transmit signal from BUC to feedhorn, and received signal from feed horn to LNB, respectively
• OMT is able to direct the transmit and received waves according to their polarizations.
OMT
![Page 18: Ut installation review](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042906/58a987d91a28ab412d8b5647/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Feed Horn
• Feed Horn launches transmit waves as a wide "spray" towards the antenna reflector, which then focuses them into a narrow beam to the satellite.
• Each feed assembly set is designed to match with a particular antenna. Installer should only use the approved feed system components with antenna; otherwise, the antenna may not meet its performance specifications, and is likely to generate interference to other systems.
• In order to obtain maximum efficiency, the feed horn must be at the correct distance from the center of the dish, and properly oriented perpendicular to the antenna.

Type of Antenna
Symmetric (Prime focus) antenna Offset antenna
Advantage - lifting higher elevation angle
- no feed horn blockage
- lower noise due to the feed looks toward the lower temperature sky rather than high temperature ground
- avoiding rain collection inside the reflector
- ease to tweak in cross-polarization setting
Disadvantage – large side lobes and wider beam width (less directivity)
- prone to misalignment and interference
![Page 23: Ut installation review](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042906/58a987d91a28ab412d8b5647/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Antenna Radiation Pattern
Antenna provides different gains at various directions.
![Page 24: Ut installation review](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042906/58a987d91a28ab412d8b5647/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Size of Antenna versus BeamwidthAt a given frequency, if the diameter of the antenna is smaller, the gain decreases and the beamwidth increases.
![Page 25: Ut installation review](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042906/58a987d91a28ab412d8b5647/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
• Too smaller the size of antenna or poor antenna assembly/alignment can cause lower gain, wider beamwidth, and larger sidelobes.
• The result is the performance drops because antenna receives from nearby satellites and also generates interference to others.
Effects of Antenna Pattern
![Page 26: Ut installation review](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042906/58a987d91a28ab412d8b5647/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Installer must ensure:• Clear Line of Sight (LOS): no obstacles (e.g buildings, trees)• Strong antenna foundation• Peak the antenna towards satellite
Consequences of Antenna Mispoint :At Transmit Path:
• Cause transmission loss• Interfere to adjacent satellite
At Receive Path:• Poor receive quality• Interfered by signals from adjacent satellites• Get unwanted signals from surroundings

Sun Transit Outage
SUN
SATELLITE
EARTH STATION
Beamwidth
• Due to the transit of the sun within the beamwidth of the earth station antenna,
• Sun appears as an extremely noisy source and blanks out the signal from satellite.
• This phenomenon lasts for 6 days around the equinox for a short duration in each day.

What is polarization?
• Microwave is an Electro-magnetic wave which are composed of electric and magnetic fields.
• The direction of electric field is at 90 degree with the direction of propagation, and it is called Polarization.
• If the electric field is oriented in a plane, it is called Linear Polarization.
![Page 39: Ut installation review](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042906/58a987d91a28ab412d8b5647/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
THAICOM PLC & IPSTAR Co., Ltd. Proprietary & Confidential
Polarization Angle
• The direction of the electric field is controlled by the orientation of the feed horn waveguide in the antenna.
• The polarization angle can be changed by rotating the feed horn.
• The blue color waveform represents the electric field, and can be denoted as:
– Horizontal polarization or
– Vertical polarization
![Page 40: Ut installation review](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042906/58a987d91a28ab412d8b5647/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
THAICOM PLC & IPSTAR Co., Ltd. Proprietary & Confidential
Polarization Alignment
• For better efficiency to transmit and receive microwave signal, the transmit and receive feed horns should be aligned to match each other.
• If the feed horn do not align, the polarization is not correctly set, and it causes loss and interference to the transmit and receive signal.
![Page 41: Ut installation review](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042906/58a987d91a28ab412d8b5647/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
THAICOM PLC & IPSTAR Co., Ltd. Proprietary & Confidential
Cross-Polarized Signals
• A feed horn can transmit and receive signals in different polarization.
• This can double the satellite link capacity.
• However, if the two feed horns are not correctly aligned, the signals are lost at the receiving feed horns.
![Page 42: Ut installation review](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042906/58a987d91a28ab412d8b5647/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
THAICOM PLC & IPSTAR Co., Ltd. Proprietary & Confidential
Polarization of Signals from Satellite
• When a signal from satellite reaches the earth, the polarization angle is slightly changed depending on the location of antenna on the earth due to the skew angle of the wave when it comes to the earth’s surface.
![Page 43: Ut installation review](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042906/58a987d91a28ab412d8b5647/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)

Before running IUAT program
Installer should strictly do the following steps.
1. Antenna pole must be perpendicular to the earth's surface.
2. Foundation must be stable.

While running IUAT program
1. In IUAT Step 4, Antenna alignment, only try to adjust azimuth angle first until the received signal is found and TOLL Es/No is detected. Continue to scan for the maximum TOLL Es/No in Azimuth direction.
