PROPAGATION ISSUES IN DIGITAL MICROWAVE RADIO LINK ENGINEERING

PROPAGATION ISSUES IN DIGITAL MICROWAVE RADIO LINK ENGINEERING PDF

This Course covers the main topics in Radio Propagation, with application to the
Engineering of Digital Radio-Relay Links. The aim is to provide the radio engineer
with the basic knowledge and understanding of radio propagation phenomena and
their impact on the operation and performance of digital radio systems.

The Course makes reference to fundamentals in Radio Propagation Physics (without
need of complex mathematical tools in Electromagnetics theory). From this, it derives the
basic concepts in Radio Link Engineering. A detailed presentation of procedures
and computer tools for the Engineering and Planning of Radio Systems is out of the
scope of this course.

The Course User is assumed to be familiar with elementary notions in Digital Radio
Modulations, Equipments, and Systems, as well as in Interference Analysis and
Planning and in Regulatory Issues. Some topics in the above areas are discussed, but
only in connection with propagation aspects.
