DSNG SYSTEM

DIGITAL SATTELLITE NEWS GATHERING SYSTEM

WHAT IS DSNG?

• Satellite news gathering (SNG) is the use of mobile communications equipment for the purpose of worldwide news-casting. Mobile units are usually vans equipped with advanced, two-way audio and video transmitters and receivers, using dish dish antennasantennas that can be aimed at geostationary geostationary satellites.satellites.

Cont….

• A modern DSNG van is a sophisticated affair, capable of deployment practically anywhere in the civilized world. Signals are beamed between a geostationary satellite and the van, and between the satellite and a control room run by a broadcast station or network.

TYPES OF DSNG IN AIR NETWORK

• MOBILE DSNG SYSTEM Equipments are mounted

within a vehicle.

• FLYAWAY DSNG SYSTEM Equipments are mounted within carry away suitcases.

DESIGN CONSIDERATION

• Weight consideration.• Link Budget calculation.

1. LINK BUDGET CALCULATIONS

1. Antenna Gain : G = Gain of Antenna

D = Diameter of Antenna 𝝀 = Wave length 𝜼 = Efficiency (usually 0.5 to 0.65)

The gain if the antenna under consideration = 37 dBi.

LINK BUDGET CALCULATIONSCont….

2. Transmit Station EIRP: 10 Log (Pt x Gt)

Pt = Out put Power of SSPA/HPA in Watts. (Say : 10Watts = 10 dBw)

Gt = Gain of Antenna ( 37 dBi)

EIRP = 10 dBw + 37 dB = 47 dBw


3. Flux density at Satellite Antenna Input := EIRP -162.2 (47 - 162.2 = 115.2 dBw/M2)

4. Path Loss : Lp = Path Lossd = Distance between uplink site & Satellite

(approx 36,000,000 meters) 𝝀 = Wave length

In our case it is about 200 dB at 6 GHz


5. C/No (uplink) = EIRP + G/T(sat) + Lp – k= 47 + (-2) + (-200) – (- 228.6)= 73.6 dB-Hz

6. EIRP(downlink) = Sat. flux density(operating)

+ (Sat. EIRP Saturated – O/P Back-off)+ (S.F.D. - I/P Back-off)

= -115.2 + (38 – 4) - (- 85 – 6.5)

= 10.3 dBw


7. Down Link Path Loss :

(In our case it is about 196 dB at 4 GHz)8. Receive G/T (6 m antenna) = 25.5 dB/°K9. C/No (downlink) = EIRP + G/T(CES) + Lp – k

= 10.3 + 25.5 – 196 + 228.6= 68.4 dB-Hz

10.Eb/No. = C/No – 10 Log (Data Rate) [256kbps]= 68.4 – 54.1 = 14.3 dB.
