1.4 Applications
Portable digital video COFDM transmitters, such as the BMS 2GHz CarryCoder II, are used
behind the camera in security and law enforcement live video transmission. These transmitters
can only provide a medium RF power (e.g. < 1W), limiting the distance between the event site
and relay station. To extend the transmission range, an external amplifier is needed to boost the
transmitter power in order to compensate the path loss and ensure the acceptable Received
Signal Level (RSL) at the destination. The BPA-5CC-7 will increase the RF power to the
maximum 5W without adding spurious signals and distortions to the transmitter output. The
power amplifier output is directly connected to the 2GHz transmitting antenna.
A typical transmitter application of the 1.99–2.5GHz power amplifier is shown in Figure 5. A
practical application is shown in Figure 6. The output of the PA is directed to the transmitting
antenna located on the roof of a mobile vehicle. The receiver antenna can be located on a mast
to result in better coverage over longer distance.
