Link Calculations
The following links will be calculated by the link budget tool:
- For the master stations links to all other stations will be calculated.
- For slave stations in ULA1 links to all other stations in ULA1 will be calculated. Additionally
for slave stations with second reception channel on carrier 2 also links to all stations in
ULA2 will be calculated.
- For slave stations in ULA2 links to the master stations and to stations in ULA1 with a sec-
ond reception channel on carrier 2 will be calculated. Additionally for slave stations in ULA2
with a second reception channel on carrier 4 meshed links to other stations in ULA2 with
second reception channel will be calculated.
In the following pictures the results for the link calculations in the lower section of the Summary
sheet are presented. Note that only for the (ULA1) master stations and the station in Casablan-
ca links to the stations in America (ULA2) are calculated:
