Digital microwave transmission tests at the Pacific Missile Test Center, Pt. Mugu, California
Abstract
An experiment designed to measure the performance of digital microwave radio systems in a line-of-sight (LOS) link that is subject to strong atmospheric multipath is discussed. The measurements made to characterize the propagation medium, the status of space-diversity receiver systems equipped with switched combiners, and the burst-error statistics caused by the multipath environment are discussed. The results presented compare the performance of two radios, operating simultaneously in the same trasmission channel.
