This report presents the results of field testing of the |
|
AN/GRC- 173(XW-1) Radio Set in the Washington, D. C. |
|
area. The field testing was conducted to determine the |
|
performance characteristics of this wideband millimeter |
|
wave digital radio equipment in a typical link |
|
configuration. The duplex link operated at 36.6 and 37.6 |
|
GHz between sites selected at the Pentagon and a building |
|
adjacent to the Washington Navy Yard (WNY). Helicopter |
|
lift of the equipment shelters and antenna to the |
|
rooftops of these buildings aided in the rapid deployment |
|
of the link. The two radio sets which were utilized in |
|
these tests were the same ones as studied, designed and |
|
fabricated under Phase I (feasibility study) and Phase II |
|
(development) of this program. Units of the equipment had |
|
run between 4500 and 7400 hours through the period of the |
|
tests, attesting to a high degree of reliability. System |
|
tests on Phase III utilized both wideband and narrowband |
|
baseband equipment to interface with the AN/GRC- 173(XW- |
|
1). A feature of these tests was the digital transmission |
|
of high resolution (1025 line) television over the link. |
