Hi Alex so the ETSI HTx 6.2.2.4 propagation profile is specified as :
two taps, ratio 8.6dB tap delay : 1/4 TETRA symbol (12.5uS) In my opinion, this is completely insufficient. Any arse can pass that. A more realistic test would be two taps 0dB, and 25uS delay. That's reality.... Their EQx model is closer to the mark but excluded from usual testing... it is too hard ! THE PROBLEM IS most of the digital systems like DMR and P25 are not BER driven, especially at the terminal, they are mostly RSSI driven for voting..... The base can site-vote but the mobile has to do better..... cheers On 18/09/2017 7:00 PM, Adrian Musceac wrote: > Hi, > > Helmut, for me RTL-SDR support is required.
