Performing a Measurement Campaign

When the HD PROTAB is equipped with an internal GPS receiver is possible to activate the Test
Drive APP.
This App allows the user to perform on-field measurement campaigns driving in a car and having
the meter simply connected to a roof antenna (see the Test Drive brochure for more information
about cabling, recommended antenna and meter’s installation in the car).

This  can  be  very  practical  for  Network  Operators  because  it  allows  them  to  verify  the  signal
coverage  in  a  certain  service  area  and  also  to  compare  the  coverage  of  several  signals
simultaneously  (the  round-robin  mode  is  available  using  the  meter  with  the  ROVER  Test  Drive
desktop Application).

Test Drive function is accessible through the

Special Functions

menu, after having selected the

TV measurement interface.

The user should specify type (Analog TV, DVB-T or DVB-T2) and frequency of the signal, as well
as BW and (in case of DVB-T2 signal) the desired PLP. Measurement mode can be

ALL

, meaning

that the configured signal will be entirely demodulated to extract all TPS information; or can be

FIELD ONLY

, meaning that only the field strength of the signal will be measured during the

campaign.

Finally, the sampling time can be set to

MANUAL

, meaning that the user will manually sample the

singal pressing ENTER when in measurement mode; or can be set to a value ranging from 1 to 30
seconds for automatic sampling.
