I can think of the following items that must be investigated if an OATS is not vertically NSA compliant. Can you think of others?
Antennas and Cables * Antenna factors * Balance * Currents on transmit cable * Cable proximity to antenna * Dipole length * Bent elements * Mutual coupling factors (at 3m only) * Antenna spacing * Antenna height * Antenna variation from vertical orientation Receiver with tracking generator * Calibration * Internal attenuator & scale tolerance * Drift Pad * Size of ground screen * Bonding of screen seams * Earthing of screen around edges * Flatness * RF conductivity from table to screen * Height above surrounding terrain Site * Reflecting objects within ellipse * Reflecting objects outside ellipse * Conductivity of surrounding earth Human Factors * Procedure * Readings * Calculations --------- This message is coming from the emc-pstc discussion list.
