    B-3 Ethernet Configuration LAN and DHCP DHCP DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. It is a protocol that allows a server to dynamically assign IP addresses to devices that are connected to the network. Most networks include a DHCP server to manage IP addresses. When using DHCP, no setup is required to lease and use a dynamic IP address.

    Appendix C — Glossary of Terms Introduction The following terms are related to this product and technology. Glossary 3 dB rule : The 3 dB rule provides a means to estimate relative power values. A 3 dB gain indicates that power increases to twice the power (a multiple of 2).
  • Page 108 C-2 Glossary Glossary of Terms Antenna : Antenna is a device which radiates and/or receives radio signals, including RF, microwave, and RADAR. Antenna beamwidth : Antenna beamwidth, also known as the half-power beamwidth, is the angle of an antenna pattern or beam over which the relative power is at or above 50% of the peak power.
  • Page 109 Glossary of Terms C-2 Glossary Average power : Average power is the peak power averaged over time and is usually applied to pulsed systems where the carrier power is switched on and off. Backhaul : In wireless technology, backhaul refers to transporting voice and data traffic from a cell site to the switch.
  • Page 110 Calibration : When making measurements, the instrument must be calibrated in order to remove residual errors due to measurement setup conditions. Anritsu recommends performing the calibration under the same conditions as the measurement: temperature, frequency, number of points, source power, and IFBW. Calibrations standards with known reflection coefficients are used to calculate the correction factors.
  • Page 111 Glossary of Terms C-2 Glossary Cellular : In wireless communications, cellular refers most basically to the structure of the wireless transmission networks which are comprised of cells or transmission sites. Cellular is also the name of the wireless telephone system originally developed by Bell Laboratories that used low-powered analog radio equipment to transmit within cells.
  • Page 112 C-2 Glossary Glossary of Terms DANL : Displayed Average Noise Level (DANL): Displayed average noise level is sometimes confused with the term Sensitivity. While related, these terms have different meanings. Sensitivity is a measure of the minimum signal level that yields a defined signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) or bit error rate (BER).
  • Page 113 Glossary of Terms C-2 Glossary dBm : dBm is an absolute measurement of power relative to 1 milliwatt. In other words, dBm is a decibel value referenced to a milliWatt (dBm). This is a technique for expressing a power measurement in logarithmic form using 1 mW as a reference.
  • Page 114 C-2 Glossary Glossary of Terms DVB-S : Digital Video Broadcasting-Satellite (DVB-S) is the original Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) forward error coding and modulation standard for satellite television and dates from 1995. It is used via satellites serving every continent of the world. DVB-S is used in both MCPC and SCPC modes for broadcast network feeds, as well as for direct broadcast satellite services like Sky TV (UK) via Astra in Europe, Dish Network in the U.S., and Bell ExpressVu in Canada.
  • Page 115 Glossary of Terms C-2 Glossary FM Threshold : FM Threshold is the point at which the input signal power is just strong enough to enable the receiver demodulator circuitry to successfully detect and recover a good quality television picture from the incoming video carrier.
  • Page 116 LRL : Line Reflect Line (LRL, also called TRL) method of calibration developed by Anritsu. LRL uses two (or more) transmission lines and a reflect standard (for each port). The line lengths are important because...
  • Page 117 Glossary of Terms C-2 Glossary LRM : Line Reflect Match (LRM) method of calibration developed by Anritsu. In LRM, one of the lines of the LRL method is replaced with a match (or load). For basic LRM, the match is assumed to be perfect, and thus represents a line of infinite length.
  • Page 118 C-2 Glossary Glossary of Terms OSLT : OSLT or Open Short Load Thru calibration method for coaxial line types. Calibrations standards with known reflection coefficients are used to calculate the correction factors. Refer to Calibration. Compare this with SSLT or Offset Short 1, Offset Short 2, Load, Thru calibration method for waveguide line types.
  • Page 119 Glossary of Terms C-2 Glossary Signal loss : Signal loss is the amount of signal strength that is lost in antenna cable, connectors, and free space. Signal loss is measured in decibels. Smith Chart : A Smith Chart is a graphical aid for electrical and electronics characteristics in radio frequency (RF) circuits.
  • Page 120 C-2 Glossary Glossary of Terms TMA : A Tower Mounted Amplifier (TMA) amplifies signals from an antenna to reduce the signal to noise ratio of a base transceiver station (BTS). This helps to improve the overall sensitivity of the BTS. A TMA is a low-noise amplifier (LNA) that is usually mounted as close as practical to the antenna in Base Transceiver Stations or in mobile masts.
