TEST REPORT Medidor de señal DVB-T

Satcatcher Digipro T Max
¡Devolviendo la diversión
para alinear una
antena terrestre!
En el pasado TELE-satélite ya ha publicado
varios informes de prueba para la instalación
de DVB-S con medidores de Satcatcher, y
ahora nosotros miramos un modelo de DVB-T
que cubre un modo de recepción que es
interesante. La televisión terrestre digital ha
ganado una enorme velocidad adquirida en
los recientes años y que estos días cubre
casi todas esquinas de la tierra con algún
tipo de señal terrestre digital. Lo que es
más, la transmisión terrestre analógica
se ha convertido en una cosa del pasado
en muchos países, o está actualmente al
borde de reemplazarse por las señales
digitales. Todos esto tiene mucho
sentido, también, realmente con el
aumento de ancho de banda que lo que
ocupado por un solo canal analógico
ahora puede transmitir de cinco a
siete canales SDTV o de dos a tres
canales de HDTV. Ya que nosotros
estamos experimentando un número
creciente de canales terrestres por el
globo, el analógico es algo que tiene En la edad analógica era SATCATCHER DIG IPR

De INFOSAT en
Tailandia
El plato ROSA ligero,
fuerte y fácil de montar
En la edición de TELE-satélite 06-07/2009 nosotros presentamos
un fabricante de antenas de satélite, INFOSAT en Tailandia. El
informe estaba acompañado por una imagen de una gran antena
construida de malla de color rosa que también estaba en la
portada de la revista. Era uno de los artículos más llamativos de
este fabricante. Aproximadamente el 5% de las ventas de las
antenas de 1.5 m eran de color rosa, porque este color era el
preferido por las señoras. En aquel momento esa explicación me
divirtió y yo no me anticipé a eso pues pronto yo vería aparecer
tal plato en mi jardín en Rumania.

cajas en cada momento pueden ser
comprobadas en nuestras dos cámaras
de envejecimiento “. Esto garantiza
que los receptores también trabajarán
después a temperaturas más altas. Las

HISTORY TELE-satellite Archives

Solarsat Antenna
The Solarsat antenna has already been introduced
in the previous issue of TELE-satellite. Since then, it
has undergone intensive long-term testing in order
to establish its practicability for everyday use.
This antenna is designed to make it possible
to align it exactly with a selected satellite in
a very short time and without using measur-
ing equipment. The only aid needed is a
completely natural one, namely the sun.
��
��
horizontally on the dish itself. Depending on the
site location, direction and elevation of the dish and
the time of the day, the crossbars cast a shadow
as a crossing point onto the horizontal measure-
ment scale. In this way the two measurement
points are created on the x and the y-axis, one
for the azimuth and the other for the elevation.
Normally, in order to obtain usable data from such a
set-up, it would be necessary to perform a complex
astronomic calculation. First of all, the position of the
sun based on the time of day and the geographic
position of site of the antenna has to be calculated.
Spherical trigonometry is then used to determine
the exact angle between the sun and the selected
satellite. Then the exact corresponding horizontal
and vertical position of the measurement point
(i.e., the shadow point on the dish) is calculated.
Since a manual calculation of the necessary data
would take hours, not to mention an advanced
course in astronomy, the manufacturer of the
Solarsat antenna has developed the SOS software
(Shadow Operating System), which does the same
work in a split second on any PC. Keying in the
relevant data does not require expert knowledge:
the exact site location is chosen from a global
database and the date and time are something
most people know anyway. The PC delivers the
exact parameters for the x and y axes. They
determine where the shadow point should fall
when adjusting the azimuth and the elevation.
It may sound a bit complex in theory, but if you
really get down to it the whole process takes
only a few minutes, even if you’re an amateur.

When mounted the Solarsat antenna is much ��
the same as other makes of antenna. not possible to align the antenna after sunset.
