 ALBW = Allocated Bandwidth. This is a program for satellite communication engineers and planners. It determines the amount of bandwidth required to accommodate a carrier signal on a satellite transponder, given the data rate, coding, and modulation methods. Version 1.1 incorporates occupied bandwidth. | |

Calculates third order intermodulation products in frequency processing devices. It was developed with satellite communications in mind, for the purpose of identifying overdriven earth stations, based on observed intermodulation products in a satellite transponder. The program has general application where 3rd order intermodulation products need to be calculated.
Provides satellite communications link budgeting, antenna siting, and sun interference calculations for geosynchronous satellites. Generates horizon profile drawings and predicted spectrum analyzer traces. Calculates antenna parameters, and bandwidth allocations. Provides for direct conversion and calculation of decibels and carrier to noise ratios. Compatible with 48GX, 48G+, 49G, 49g+, 48gII, and 50g.
A program to determine the transmit gain, receive gain, and figure of merit (G/T) of a parabolic satellite communications antenna. It uses antenna diameter, efficiency, transmit frequency, receive frequency, and receive system noise temperature as inputs. Although developed for satellite communications, it should work with any parabolic antenna system.
Light version of SATCO, a geosynchronous orbit satellite
communications calculator. It provides basic information to help with antenna siting and alignment. It also predicts solar conjunctions (sun interference). Version 1.3 includes satellite and city databases.
