Tsunami MP.11and MP.11a Installation and Management

The fields that can be changed on this window are described in the following text.

Interface Type

The interface type can be Worp Satellite or Worp Base. *See “Wireless Outdoor Router Protocol” on page 38.)

Base Station System Name

The name found on the system page of the Base Station to which this satellite is connecting. This parameter can be used as an added security measure, and when there are multiple Base Stations in the network and you want a satellite to register with only one when it may actually have adequate signal strength for either.

If the Base Station System Name is left blank on the satellite, it can register with any Base Station with a matching Network Name and Network Secret.

Network Name

A Network Name is name given to a network so that multiple networks can reuse the same frequency without problems. A satellite can only register to a base if it has the same Network Name. The Network Name is one of the parameters that allow a Subscriber Unit to register on a Base Station. The Base Station System Name and Frequency Channel also are parameters to guide the SU to the proper Base Station on the network, but they provide no security. Basic security is provided through encryption, as it causes none of the messages to be sent in the clear. Further security is provided by mutual authentication of the Base Station and Subscriber Unit using the Network Secret.

Transmit Power Control (Tsunami MP.11a units only)

By default, the Tsunami MP.11a lets users transmit at the maximum output power for the country or regulatory domain and frequency selected. However, with Transmit Power Control (TPC), you can adjust the output power of the unit to a lower level in order to reduce interference from neighboring devices or to use a higher gain antenna without violating the maximum radiated output power allowed for your country. Also, most countries in the ETSI regulatory domain require the transmit power to be set to a 6 dB lower value than the maximum allowed EIRP when link quality permits. You can see your unit’s current output power for the selected frequency in the event log.

The event log shows the selected power for all data rates, so you must look up the proper data rate to determine the actual power level. For example, the event log shows:

0 00:00:08–INFO- Final Power 6 Mb 20 dBm, MaxRD 30 dBm, MaxEdge 31 dBm, -TPC Scale 0 dBm – Ant Red 0 dBm* 0 00:00:09–INFO- 20 dBm 20 dBm 20 dBm 20 dBm 20dBm 19 dBm 17 dBm 14 dBm

The above shows that the output power is set at 20 dBm for the data rate 6, 9, 12, 18, or 24 Mbps; at 19 dBm for 36 Mbps, at 17 dBm for 48 Mbps, or at 14 dBm when the selected data rate is 54 Mbps. The first line shows that 6 Mbps is selected, so the transmit power is 20 dBm.
