NTIA Report TR-97-327Testing Automatic Link Establishment High Frequency Radios Using Compact Disc Technology
|
|
|
Abstract: A method of high frequency (HF) radio interoperability testing in accordance with Federal Standards 1045A and 1046/1 is now available on a compact disc (CD) created by engineers at the National Telecommunications and Information Administration, Institute for Telecommunication Sciences. This report describes both the use of the CD and the software that created the sound files recorded on the CD. The sound files, which can be recreated by the program on a personal computer and played through a PC sound card, were recorded on a compact disc and packaged with the executable software for distribution to the public. The use of the CD for interoperability testing is explained, and tools are provided to simplify testing, such as data log sheets and additional utility software. |
