The FCC TVStudy OET-69 software includes the ability to run studies using actual antenna azimuth and elevations patterns, but it wasn’t until release of Version 1.2.8 that there was a way to apply ...

Sinclair Broadcast Group-owned Dielectric has literally changed how FM broadcast antenna manufactures validate directional pattern studies for new FM broadcast antennas. In fact, the company’s ...

At its Aug. 4 meeting, the FCC set deadlines for TV stations to either build out maximized DTV facilities if they elect to stay on their current DTV channel after analog is shut down, or meet minimum ...

A model that predicts the radiation pattern from patch antennas in real installations could take the guesswork out of communication device development. A model that predicts the radiation pattern from ...

Peter Delos, Technical Lead, Bob Broughton, Director of Engineering and Jon Kraft, Senior Staff Field Applications Engineer, all with Analog Devices. With the proliferation of digital phased arrays in ...

Since satellites are always in different locations, it can be challenging to repeat a test environment for CRPA testing. Historically, testing Controlled Reception Pattern Antenna (CRPA) systems in a ...

When broadcasting was in its infancy, amplitude modulation (AM) was the principal modulation system being researched and developed. Once efficient generation of useful RF signals was discovered and ...

Fix these factors before upgrading.
