Setting Aupc Parameters, Target Eb/No, Max Range | Mocomtech CDM-QX

CDM-Qx Satellite Modem	Revision 5
Automatic Uplink Power Control (AUPC)	MN/CDMQx.IOM

There are several important parameters associated with this mode of operation, and the user needs to understand how the AUPC feature works, and the implications of setting these parameters.

8.2Setting AUPC Parameters

1.The user, under the menu (CONFIG, MODE) first ensures that EDMAC is selected. EDMAC may be selected as IDLE, or the unit may be defined as an EDMAC Master or Slave. The important consideration is that EDMAC framing should be enabled.

2.The user should verify that the remote modem also has EDMAC framing enabled.

3.The user, under the menu (CONFIG, TX, POWER) sets the nominal output power of the modem. This is done by selecting the MANUAL mode, then editing the TX output power level displayed.

4.The user will then select AUPC as the operating mode. At this point the user will be prompted to define four key parameters:

8.2.1Target Eb/No

This is value of Eb/No that the user desires to keep constant at the remote modem.

If the Eb/No exceeds this value, the AUPC control will reduce the TX output power, but will never drop below the nominal value set.

If the Eb/No falls below this value, the AUPC control will increase the TX output power, but will never exceed the value determined by the parameter MAX RANGE.

•The minimum value the user can enter is 0.0 dB

•The maximum value the user can enter is 9.9 dB

•The default value is 3.0 dB

•The resolution is 0.1 dB

8.2.2Max Range

This defines how much the modem is permitted to increase the output level, under AUPC control.

•The minimum value the user can enter is 0 dB

•The maximum value the user can enter is 9 dB

•The default value is 1 dB

•The resolution is 1 dB
