Estudio de la cobertura de la señal de TVD para las urbanizaciones de Puerto Azul y Los Ceibos.

Abstract

In this paper we describe the coverage study of the TVD signal for the urbanizations of Puerto Azul and the Ceibos of the province of Guayas, with special attention to the coverage of the UCSG Televisión digital channel. It begins with a description of the ISDBT-Tb standard for digital terrestrial television adopted by Ecuador. The results obtained in the measurements of levels and quality of signal in the reception in the urbanizations object of study considered shadow zones are shown because there is no line of sight with the DTT transmission place. For the coverage calculations, an adjusted propagation model was used for an RICE channel, with ITU-R 526 service area prediction model. For the analysis, the WINRPT software developed by the Italian company SEDICOM was used. The measurement methodology was based on the ITU recommendation SM378-7 and the Technical Emissions Verification Manual of the same entity.
