Abstract :
The IBA is to establish a satellite antenna footprint monitoring system to enable it to determine whether the effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP) specified in the BSB contract is maintained for each channel. This will be achieved by locating power flux density measuring equipment at five unmanned sites in the UK each being accessed from a master site. There will also be a sixth equipment available as a spare or transportable equipment
