System Description 1.1 User Features The following table identifies the operational features for BoB. ITEMSPECIFICATIONNOTES Beacon Receiver AntennaBuilt-inOmni-directional Beacon AlmanacBoB must store the last recorded beacon almanac. This is to be updated whenever a more recent almanac is received Beacon Channel trackingTracks 2 channels simultaneously Wireless LinkTransmitter only, license free frequency band. Must be able to be used in any location where the user is capable of receiving beacon correction data. Must be enabled/disabled by Firmware, or permanently disabled at build time. 900Mcs transmitter primarily for use in the USA. ConfigurationMust be ready ‘out of the box’ Also via PC based software. Two-button UI Battery LifeAt the least the same or better on single charge. Regular day shift. External Antenna support External antenna support is NOT required Wireless link5 foot specTypical operational range Operational IndicationsMinimum of power status and Beacon tracking status. RTCM capabilitySC-104, version 2Output in standard format on cabled serial connection, supportable by any product with RTCM input ability. Operational ModesBest and Fixed Firmware UpgradeSerial port connection.User can upgrade. ErgonomicEasy to get into and out of vehicles with no requirement to detach and re-attach. Comfortable and light to wear on hip. Standard AccessoriesMust be supplied with a pouch that enables the user to access the buttons. simple nylon belt with plastic buckle (similar to the hip pack shoulder strap). Cable for connection to PC (Null Modem) The pouch padded to the users hip from the unit. This will probably be dependent on the final weight and shape of the product. Optional AccessoriesVehicle kits will be available.Not necessarily in time for release. BoB Product Requirements Specification26 February 1999 Trimble Company Confidential Issue : 1.10 J:\BoB\PRS\BoB PRS110.doc 4 1.2 System Operation 1.2.1 Modes of Operation BoB will track frequencies using one of two modes: Best and Fixed. The list of frequencies that can be tracked, plus the startup mode, can be controlled using PC-BoB software. Normally users will either have a very short include list (e.g. one to five stations) or will have a very long include list (excluding only one or two dominant stations). Those with a short list will operate either in Best or Fixed mode depending on their situation, however those with a very long list will usually always be in Best mode. 1.2.1.1 Best When BoB is in Best mode it will track the best frequency that it can, and will change frequencies if its current frequency becomes unsatisfactory. The algorithm for determin…

The EUT was placed on a wooden table resting on a turntable on the open air test site. The search antenna was placed 3m from the EUT. The EUT antenna was mounted vertically as per normal installation. 2. The turntable was slowly rotated to locate the direction of maximum emission at each emission falling in the restricted bands of 15.205. 3. Once maximum direction was determined, the search antenna was raised and lowered in both vertical and horizontal polarizations. The maximum readings so obtained are recorded in the data listed below.
