TX320 Transmitter
6. Field Installation
6.1 Field Site Requirements
The TX320 has two siting requirements for proper operation. The GPS
antenna must have a clear view of most of the sky. The transmission antenna
must have a clear view of the spacecraft. Other requirements are not specific
to the TX320, but are mentioned here anyway. The TX320 must be mounted
in an enclosure that will protect it from the environment, including
condensation. Most GOES systems are powered by a battery that is charged
by a solar panel. The solar panel must have a clear view of the southern sky.
Pay special attention to winter sun angles.
6.2 Transmission Antenna
The TX320 transmission antenna is a right-hand circular polarized Yagi with
11 dBic gain. A bracket is included with the antenna for mounting to a mast or
pole (see Figure 6-1). The antenna is directional and should be aimed at the
spacecraft. Both elevation and azimuth are unique to the location on the
planet, and must be set. A poorly aimed antenna will cause a drop in signal
strength or possibly prevent successful transmission.
The accuracy of the antenna aiming is not critical, but should be reasonably
good. As a guide, if the antenna is aimed 20 degrees off the spacecraft, the
received power will be half of a properly aimed antenna. Beyond 20 degrees,
the received power drops off very quickly.
