This paper gives a general description of the TH‐3 long‐hual microwave radio system which operates in the 6 GHz common carrier band. Performance objectives are expressed, and the allocation of noise to the various contributors is developed. Particular attention is given to the balance between intermodulation noise and tertiary interference. In conclusion, the predicted performance is compared with measurements made on the initial installation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
