Satellite and Tracker parameters understanding.
Hello,
I am currently studying and trying out gr-leo and I have some questions on what a couple of its parameters really represent. (I am not sure if i should post this here as this is not really an issue, but I am just looking for some help). The parameters are the following:
- "Receiver Noise Figure" in both tracker and satellite. What does it really represent? Antenna Noise Figure? Full reception chain noise figure? Also, I did notice that it says it is in dBm in the tracker, i am assuming that is a typo, right?
- "Receiver Effective Noise Temperature" in both tracker and satellite. Regarding the previous point, also not sure if this refers to the whole reception chain, in which case maybe both values are redundant then, or what …
Thanks a lot in advance.
