AN-30

Redline Communications’ Access Node-50 Broadband Fixed
Wireless (BFW) system.

Antenna

A device for transmitting and/or receiving a radio frequency (RF).
Antennas vary in design and frequencies supported.

Antenna Gain

The measure of antenna performance relative to a theoretical antenna
called an isotropic antenna.

ARQ

Automatic Repeat Request. This is the protocol used over the air for
error correction.

Beamwidth

The angle of signal coverage provided by an antenna.

BFW

Broadband Fixed Wireless

Bps (Bits Per Second)

A unit of measurement for the rate at which data is transmitted.

BPSK

Binary Phase Shift Keying.

Channel

A communications path wide enough to permit a single RF
transmission.

dB

A ratio expressed in decibels.

dBi

A ratio, measured in decibels, of the effective gain of an antenna
compared to an isotropic antenna.

dBm

Decibels above a milliwatt

DHCP

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A DHCP server will
automatically issue IP addresses within a specified range to devices
on a network.

Directional Antenna

An antenna that concentrates transmission power into one direction.

Encryption

For the purposes of privacy, the transformation of data into an
unreadable format until reformatted with a decryption key.

Ethernet

A LAN architecture using a bus or star topology

FD

Full Duplex. Refers to the transmission of data in two directions
simultaneously (i.e. a telephone)

FWA

Fixed Wireless Access

Gain

The ratio of the output amplitude of a signal to the input amplitude of
a signal. Typically expressed in decibels (dB).

Gateway

A network point that acts as an entrance to another network.

GHz

Gigahertz. 1,000,000,000 Hz, or 1,000 MHz

GUI

Graphical User Interface

Hertz (Hz)

The international unit for measuring frequency, equivalent to the
number of cycles per second. One megahertz (MHz) is one million
Hertz. One gigahertz (GHz) is one billion Hertz.

IF

Intermediate Frequency.

IP (Internet Protocol)

See TCP/IP.

Isotropic

A theoretic construct of an antenna that radiates its signal 360 degrees
both vertically and horizontally—a perfect sphere. Generally used as
a reference.

IXC (Inter-exchange Carrier)

A long-distance phone company.

LAN (Local Area Network)

A data communications network, typically within a building or
campus linking computers, printers and other devices together.

LEC (Local Exchange Carriers)

The traditional local wired phone company.

LED

Light Emitting Diode

LOS

Line Of Sight. A clear direct path between two antennas, with no
obstructions within the first Fresnel zone.

MAC (Media Access Control)

A unique number assigned to a network device. It corresponds to the
