1、CCIR VOLUME*X-L 90 H Y855212 0503987 b 110 Rec. 139-3 RECOMMENDATION 139-3 * TRANSMITTING ANTENNAS FOR SOUND BROADCASTING IN THE TROPiCAL ZONE (Question 45/10, Study Programme 45F/10) The CCIR, CONSIDERING (1953-1978-1986-1990) (a) that it is desirable to use transmitting antennas for sound broadcas

2、ting in the Tropical Zone that cause a minimum of interference outside the service area; (b) that the antennas should be economical in design and simple in operation; (c) that Annex I to this Recommendation gives the principles on which antennas for sound broadcasting in the Tropical Zone should be

3、designed and constructed as well as a description of the antennas commonly used for sound broadcasting in the Tropical Zone, UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS 1. use antenna systems so designed that: - that Administrations and organizations operating sound broadcasting services in the Tropical Zone should the

5、o serve the fringe of the service area is as low as possible: . area, - 2. that Administrations provide to the CCIR practical operational data concerning these antennas. ANNEX I 1. Selection of site The transmitting antenna should be situated as near to the centre of the service area as possible. Fo

6、r antennas relying on ground reflection for their vertical directivity, the site should be chosen where the soil is of good conductivity. Where this is not possible, an earth mat can be used. This should consist of a number of paralleled wires spaced not more than one tenth of a wavelength apart, pa

7、rallel to the dipoles and extending for half a wavelength beyond the extremities of the antenna array. When it is not possible to locate the antenna at the centre of the service area, the beam should be suitably slewed using multi-element transmitting antenna to cover the desired service area. Angle

8、s of slew greater than about 15“ often produce large side-lobes which may cause interference outside the reception area. If there are no adjacent reception areas, for example, where the area to be served is an isolated island, a central location is less important. 2. Slewing If it is desired to site

9、 a station away from the centre of the service area, the direction of the vertical beam can be slewed by dividing each row of dipoles of the array into two halves with currents in different phases. This method of slewing is most easily applicable to arrays of two or four dipoles perrow. * This Recom

Antennas for vertical incidence The

11、 arrays commonly used by different organizations for the purpose of sound broadcasting in the Tropical Zone include the Trinidad antenna, the Jamaica antenna, the 16-element array, and a high incidence array consisting of four full-wave dipoles arranged in the form of a square. The schematic and the

12、 radiation pattern of the Trinidad antenna are described in Figs. 20 and 21 of the publication CCIR, 19691. The Jamaica antenna consists of four half-wave end-fed dipoles in the same horizontal plane. All the elements are 0.2 h above ground. This parameter is not critical. The elements are fed with

13、currents in the same phase and magnitude. The Jamaica antenna, sometimes also designated as type TRO/n /h antenna has an azimuthal radiation pattern which is approximately omnidirectional. The radiation pattern for the TR0/2/0.2 type is given in Fig. 16 of the publication CCIR, 19691. The schematic

14、and the radiation pattern of the 16-element array are given in Fig. 17 of the publication CCIR, 19691. Some organizations use a high incidence array which gives adequate high frequency coverage over a circular area of up to 1000 km radius. The array, consists of four full-wave dipoles arranged in th

15、e form of a square and fed in such a manner that the currents in any two adjoining elements are inphase and are of the same magnitude. The average height above ground is 0.15 h but this does not seem to be critical. The radiating elements are built up of a four-wire cage, resulting in an impedance o

16、f 2200 Cl each, which, when paralleled at the centre, gives a good match to a 550 Cl feeder. A quarter-wave matching stub is included in the design. The schematic of the antenna and its power distribution diagram are given in Figs. 18 and 19 of the publication CCIR, 19691. The gain of the array, rel

17、ative to an isotropic radiator, is 8 dBi. At any angle of elevation below 30, the radiation from the high incidence array is 16 dB below the maximum radiated by a dipole at that elevation. The high-angle radiation of the array is greater than that of a dipole in broad-side direction at angles of ele

18、vation between 50“ and 75“, representing improved signal strength between 100 and 400 km. In the end-on direction at angles of elevation between 25“ and 75“, improved signal strength is available between 100 and 1000 km. A simple two-tier dipole array, H 112, with a standard 0.5 h spacing may also b

19、e used with a view to giving adequate coverage up to 800 km CCIR, 1963-661. An H 1/2/0.5 antenna fed out-of-phase, gives an angle of fire of 41“. Field trials on an antenna system H 1/2/0.4 fed out-of-phase have shown that at distances below 600 km the field strength laid down by the antenna is high

20、er than that from a single dipole. At distances above 600 km, the field strength laid down by the antenna is low compared to the dipole CCIR, 1963-661. 4. General consideration in design of antenna While designing an antenna for night-time operation, the field due to higher order modes such as 2-F s

21、hould be taken into account. During day-time, ionospheric absorption is considerable, resulting in propagation being limited to only 1 hop. The absorption also increases with the obliquity of the incidence and an antenna suitable for day-time should have maximum gain corresponding to the angle requi

22、red at the fringe of the service area. At angles below this, there should be sharp cut-off. At night, however, multi-hop propagation is possible due to lower absorption. Fields due to 2-F mode should, therefore, be taken into account when designing such antenna systems (Fig. 1 of CCIR, 1966-691). RE
