Appendix A. INTERFERENCE
IDENTIFICATION
A.1
Introduction
Without Carrier ID technology, the ability to identify carriers is a complex task even for the most
seasoned operator, technician, or engineer. The ability to identify an interference condition, in
and of itself, is simple – the carrier that is assigned to the given spectrum may either experience
marginally degraded communications (resulting in poor communications or periodic error), or it
may be rendered completely unusable (resulting in no usable communications).
The purpose of this appendix is to present a number of scenarios that address marginal, partial,
and complete interference, and to provide explanations of how Comtech EF Data’s MCDD-100
MetaCarrier® Detecting Device or MCED-100 MetaCarrier® Embedding Device (referred to
collectively as the MCxD-100), using Carrier ID technology, may be used to extract the source of
the interference.
The scenarios presented in this appendix are as follows:
