6.7 Modulated RF Power Spectrum
The transmitter's modulated spectrum complies with the IRIG-106 PSD mask:
M (dBc) = Max ( {K – 100 log |f – f
M
=
power relative to unmodulated carrier (i.e., units of dBc) at frequency f (MHz)
f
=
frequency in MHz
f
=
the carrier frequency in MHz
c
R
=
the bit rate in Mb/s
P
=
the rated power output of the UUT, in Watts
and the values of K and m are as tabulated in Table 18.
As noted in the equation above, the mask has a floor at –(55 + 10 log(P)) dBc, and the mask imposes no limit on the
spectrum for frequency offsets less than R/m. Representative examples of the transmitted spectrum, with the
appropriate mask, are shown in Figure 31, Figure 32, and Figure 33.
