Detailed Demodulator Status 9

This screen shows the estimated Eb/No. This is the composite Eb/No including framing overheads (as used by INTELSAT when specifying modem performance figures). The BER is the final USER BER which is being passed to the customer. The Offset is the measured error of the received carrier, relative to the nominal position expected which is useful for determining the frequency drift due to the satellite and frequency conversion equipment. The Level is the level of the desired carrier estimated by the demodulator and is only shown if the Monitor/AGC option is fitted. From this screen the Down Arrow leads back to the selected Status screen.
