1 | Time | Time | Real Number or Text | Date | Time. |
2 | Link To ID | Link To ID | Integer | Unitless | Refers to the ID of the transmitter in the link analysis. |
3 | IF Source ID | IF Source ID | Integer | Unitless | IF source ID refers to the ID of the interferer(s) in the CommSystem. |
4 | Xmtr Power | Xmtr Power | Real Number | Power | The RF power output of the transmitter as measured at the input to the antenna. This is a user selectable value. |
5 | Xmtr Gain | Xmtr Gain | Real Number | Ratio | The antenna gain of the transmitter which is dependent on the antenna type selected. For transmitter models that do not have an antenna model, this is a user defined value. For the simple source transmitter, 0 dB is reported since the simple source transmitter is modeled as an isotropic radiator. |
6 | EIRP | EIRP | Real Number | Power | The effective isotropic radiated power in the link direction. This value is the product of the transmitter power and the transmitter gain in the link direction with the inclusion of user defined post transmit gains and losses. |
7 | Xmtr Azimuth - Phi | Xmtr Azimuth - Phi | Real Number or Text | Angle | The transmitter azimuth (Phi) is the angle between the transmitter body +x axis and the x-y projection of the link vector. |
8 | Xmtr Elevation - Theta | Xmtr Elevation - Theta | Real Number or Text | Angle | The transmitter elevation (Theta) is the angle between the transmitter antenna bore-sight vector and the link vector. |
9 | Rcvr Azimuth - Phi | Rcvr Azimuth - Phi | Real Number or Text | Angle | The receiver azimuth (Phi) is the angle between the receiver body +x axis and the x-y projection of the link vector. |
10 | Rcvr Elevation - Theta | Rcvr Elevation - Theta | Real Number or Text | Angle | The receiver elevation (Theta) is the angle between the receiver antenna bore-sight vector and the link vector. |
11 | Rcvd. Frequency | Rcvd. Frequency | Real Number | Frequency | The received frequency is the frequency that the receiver is tuned to in order to communicate with the transmitter. This frequency may be auto-tracked or entered by the user in the receiver properties. |
12 | Rcvd. Power | Rcvd. Power | Real Number | Power | The power at the receiver after the receiver antenna gain is added (in dBW). It is equal to the EIRP in the receiver direction with all the channel losses as well as the bandwidth overlap and receiver gain applied. |
13 | Rcvr Gain | Rcvr Gain | Real Number | Ratio | Receiver Gain is the antenna gain (in dBi) of the receiver which is dependent on the antenna type used. |
14 | Rcvr NormGain | Rcvr NormGain | Real Number | Unitless | The normalized gain of the receiver is the ratio of the gain in the link direction to the max gain of the receiver's antenna. |
15 | Rcvr Loss | Rcvr Loss | Real Number | Ratio | Receiver loss is the propagation loss through the channel between the transmitter and receiver. |
16 | Bandwidth Overlap | Bandwidth Overlap | Real Number | Ratio | The bandwidth overlap factor is the fraction (between 0 and 1) of transmitted power which is contained within the receiver's bandwidth. The amount of power received by the receiver is equal to the transmitted EIRP multiplied by the bandwidth overlap factor and taking into account any propagation losses. |
17 | Pwr Flux Density | Pwr Flux Density | Real Number | PowerFluxDensity | The interference power from an individual interference source, crossing a unit area normal to the direction of wave propagation and computed over a reference bandwidth of either 1 MHz, 40 kHz, 4 kHz, or 1 Hz. See "Power Flux Density Technical Notes". |
