Data Provider:Interference Information

Column Listing

Column	Column Name	Element	Type	Dimension	Description
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	Interferer Name	Interferer Name	Text	Unitless	The interferer name is the path and name of the interferer object(s) in the CommSystem.
5	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.
6	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.
7	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.
8	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.
9	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.
10	Range	Range	Real Number	Distance	The range (i.e., distance between the primary and secondary object) at the given time.
11	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.
12	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.
13	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.
14	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.
15	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.
16	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.
17	Rcvr Loss	Rcvr Loss	Real Number	Ratio	Receiver loss is the propagation loss through the channel between the transmitter and receiver.
18	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.
19	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".
20	C/I	C/I	Real Number	Ratio	In the Interference Information data provider, C/I is the carrier power from the desired signal over the individual interferer power. Note that the Link Information data provider defines C/I as the carrier power from the desired signal over the sum of all interferer powers. If only one interferer is part of the CommSystem, the two data providers will report the same value for C/I.
21	Pol. Rel. Angle	Pol. Rel. Angle	Real Number or Text	Angle	The angle corresponding to the relative mismatch between the transmitted signal polarization and the receiver polarization.
22	Polarization Effic	Polarization Effic	Real Number	Ratio	The polarization match between the transmitted signal polarization and the receiving antenna (or in case of Simple and Medium models implied antenna) polarization. It is computed on a scale of 0 - - 1. The value of 1.0 represents the perfect match between the transmitter and the receiver polarizations. On the opposite end of the scale, the value of 0.0 represents a perfect mismatch. STK also provides an option to model Cross Polarization Leakage value. The polarization mismatch value can not drop below the user specified Cross Pol Leakage value.
23	Free Space Loss	Free Space Loss	Real Number	Ratio	Loss due to propagation through free space.
24	Atmos Loss	Atmos Loss	Real Number	Ratio	Loss calculated by the selected atmosphere model.
25	Rain Loss	Rain Loss	Real Number	Ratio	Loss calculated by the selected rain model.
