0.5dB can be considered as the maximum value for loss between the WISMO228 and an external
connector.
RF Performances
RF performances are compliant with ETSI recommendation GSM 05.05. Listed below are the main
parameters for both the Receiver and the Transmitter.
The main parameters for the Receiver are:
•
GSM850/EGSM900 Reference Sensitivity = ‐108 dBm (typ.)
•
DCS1800/PCS1900 Reference Sensitivity = ‐108 dBm (typ.)
•
Selectivity @ 200 kHz : > +9 dBc
•
Selectivity @ 400 kHz : > +41 dBc
•
Linear dynamic range: 63 dB
•
Co‐channel rejection: >= 9 dBc
The main parameters for the Transmitter are:
•
Maximum output power (EGSM): 33 dBm +/‐ 2 dB at ambient temperature
•
Maximum output power (GSM1800): 30 dBm +/‐ 2 dB at ambient temperature
•
Minimum output power (EGSM): 5 dBm +/‐ 5 dB at ambient temperature
•
Minimum output power (GSM1800): 0 dBm +/‐ 5 dB at ambient temperature
