As demonstrated by the table in Section 73.623(c)(3)(ii), DTV receivers treat co-channel DTV signals as an increase in the noise floor of the desired signal. This increase in noise floor is proportional to the power received from the undesired station. Therefore, in order to maintain the minimum necessary signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio of 15.19 dB, the desired signal level must be increased. Section 73.623(c)(2) of the rules sets forth a value of 15 dB for co-channel interference for DTV into DTV which are only valid at receiving locations where the S/N ratio for the desired DTV signal is 28 dB or greater.

  • interference from analog TV and DTV, respectively. At locations where the S/N ratio is greater than 16 dB but less than 28 dB, D/U values for co-channel interference to DTV are as follows: To protect DTV reception from DTV co-channel interference, minimum D/U ratios are computed from the following formula: D/U = 15 + 10log10[1.0/(1.0-10-x/10)], where x = S/N - 15.19 dB. The quantity x is the amount by which the actual desired S/N exceeds the minimum required for DTV reception. To protect DTV reception from analog co-channel interference, minimum D/U ratios are found from Table 5B. Use linear interpolation for S/N values between those given in the table. 1 The adjacent-channel D/U ratios given in this table for interference from

TIA further recommends several specific changes to the Part 15 rules. Specifically, TIA notes an error in Part 15.121(b) regarding scanning receivers, requests modification of the labeling requirements in rule 15.19, and requests clarification of the equipment authorizations required for composite devices. Staff believes there is merit in some of TIA's suggestions and recommends initiation of a review of the Part 15 rules.

Tandy and Uniden state that some scanning receivers are so small or compact as to make the inclusion of the full label impossible without significant design modification. Uniden states that it would intentionally have to make the casing larger than is otherwise required for the enclosed device, resulting in considerable waste with

As demonstrated by the table in Section 73.623(c)(3)(ii), DTV receivers treat co-channel DTV signals as an increase in the noise floor of the desired signal. This increase in noise floor is proportional to the power received from the undesired station. Therefore, in order to maintain the minimum necessary signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio of 15.19 dB, the desired signal level must be increased. Section 73.623(c)(2) of the rules sets forth a value of 15 dB for co-channel interference for DTV into DTV which are only valid at receiving locations where the S/N ratio for the desired DTV signal is 28 dB or greater.

As demonstrated by the table in Section 73.623(c)(3)(ii), DTV receivers treat co-channel DTV signals as an increase in the noise floor of the desired signal. This increase in noise floor is proportional to the power received from the undesired station. Therefore, in order to maintain the minimum necessary signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio of 15.19 dB, the desired signal level must be increased. Section 73.623(c)(2) of the rules sets forth a value of 15 dB for co-channel interference for DTV into DTV which are only valid at receiving locations where the S/N ratio for the desired DTV signal is 28 dB or greater.

As demonstrated by the table in Section 73.623(c)(3)(ii), DTV receivers treat co-channel DTV signals as an increase in the noise floor of the desired signal. This increase in noise floor is proportional to the power received from the undesired station. Therefore, in order to maintain the minimum necessary signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio of 15.19 dB, the desired signal level must be increased. Section 73.623(c)(2) of the rules sets forth a value of 15 dB for co-channel interference for DTV into DTV which are only valid at receiving locations where the S/N ratio for the desired DTV signal is 28 dB or greater.

At locations where the S/N ratio is greater than 16 dB but less than 28 dB, D/U values for co-channel interference to DTV are as follows: For DTV-to-DTV interference, the minimum D/U ratios are computed from the following formula: D/U = 15 + 10log10[1.0 / (1.0 - 10-x/10)] where x = S/N - 15.19(minimum signal to noise ratio) For analog-to-DTV interference, the minimum D/U ratios are found from the following Table (for values between measured values, linear interpolation can be used): Signal-to-Noise Ratio(dB)Desired-to-Undesired Ratio(dB) 16.00 21.00 16.35 19.94 17.35 17.69 18.35 16.44 19.35 7.19 20.35 4.69 21.35 3.69 22.35 2.94 23.35 2.44 25.00 2.00 (4) Due to the frequency spacing that exists between Channels

The Pokky POS transmitting device was not labeled, as required by Section 15.19(a) of the Rules, and a review of the Commission's databases revealed that the device was not verified or certified. 3. Section 15.209(a) provides that the emissions from an intentional radiator operating on 433.92 MHz shall not exceed the field strength of 200 microvolts per meter (uV/m), measured at three meters. Measurements by the San Francisco Office showed that New Tung
