Broadcasting

Application


Broadcasting networks (e.g. TV, radio or paging networks) are only using downlink signals radiated from fixed terrestrial transmitters or satellites to fixed or mobile receivers.
Accurate propagation models allow a detailed analysis of the coverage scenario and avoid areas without any coverage.

All propagation scenarios and models of WinProp can be used:

The predicted path loss is used for the planning of the broadcasting network.

Two different types of transmitters are supported:
_________

 

Predicted Output


Very important for the planning of broadcasting networks are the following outputs: .

  • Maximum Received Power (for coverage analysis)
  • Number of received carriers (if multiple carriers are received from different transmitters)
  • Coverage analysis including fast fading margins
  • Co-Channel-Interference
Maps for all these values are generated in the broadcasting simulation mode

Required Input


Databases
The propagation models in WinProp can work with many different types of databases depending on the scenario which is analyzed:

Further information concerning the database can be found on the database page.

Antennas
The antenna patterns can either be 2x2D (horizontal and vertical) or 3D. The influence of the masts on the radiation patterns can be examined with the MASC module.
