[WISPA] solar planning -- battery and sun calc suggestions?

2009-03-27 Thread Rogelio
I have a quad radio node that is 110V AC only, and I'm getting together 
what's needed in order to power it on a solar panel.

Obviously, I'll need an inverter to take from 110V to 48V DC.

Does anyone have any suggestions for batteries?  Someone suggested some 
high capacity 6V ones (like they use on golf carts) and possibly putting 
them in series or parallel (depending on the draw I need).

Also, I hear that there is some sort of sunlight calculator that I'll 
need to use to calculate the battery capacity I'll need to plan for. 
Any suggestions there? (I don't see anything googling)

Any advice here would be greatly appreciated.  (I'm new to planning out 
power requirements.)

Ok I cannot find a decent 4.9 FD radio. Looks like Ligowave, Radwin, and 
Redline are the top choices.

On the same line of thought what are the legalities for passing 
commercial data over a 4.9 link if its primary function is for 
Government data?

Re: [WISPA] 4.9 Full Duplex

2009-03-27 Thread 3-dB Networks
Exalt is a good choice... but like Ligowave and Redline would be half
duplex.  Just like Moto would be a good choice (I actually have a PtP 400
Full connectorized link on the shelf that I am dying to sell :-)

The Radwin RW2000/WL1000 are the only 4.9GHz links that I know of that are
Full Duplex

As for the commercial over 4.9GHz... I seem to remember from a thread a long
time ago that it was possible... but I don't recall any details.

Re: [WISPA] 4.9 Full Duplex

2009-03-27 Thread Bob Moldashel
There is alot of confusion here.

 From a RF standpoint NONE of this equipment is full duplex.

 From an Ethernet Port standpoint I know the exalt gives me full duplex 
specs.  I cannot answer for Motorola or the others.

The biggest thing you should look for is support, asymetrical bandwidth 
capabilities, and REAL throughput data. I know for a fact that the data 
through the Exalt is 55 Mbps aggregate.  So I can get 25/25 or an 
asymetrical part of that. No sales fluff on that number.

The Motorola is rated at 43 Mbps.

If you go my Radwin's spec sheet they do a remarkable 100 Mb over a 20 
mhz. channel. That's either totall incredible or that's some real fluff!

Ligowave says up to 40 Mb and they probably say that depending on 
channel size.  But 40 mb is the max.

I can't answer for Redline as I don't have a public safety spec sheet in 
front of me.

As far as the customer is concerned you need to provide full duplex to 
his demarc. Do not get confused with what happens when it leaves that 
point.

Re: [WISPA] 4.9 Full Duplex

2009-03-27 Thread 3-dB Networks
Radwin radios are designed for TDM transport... that is really the market
they play towards... cellular carriers.  Transport is fixed to full
duplex... and designed with that in mind.  But from an RF standpoint you
would be right since it only transmits on one channel.

The Radwin gear transmits in two 20MHz channels, one horizontal polarity and
one vertical polarity... I don't see any reason to doubt their throughput
numbers.

But at the end of the day... if the customer wants to see a full duplex
radio... only the Radwin one is marketed that way.  My experience is most
customers like this don't care how it actually works... as long as it does
what they think they want.

Nope...still have the same issues.

If one radio did the transmitting and the other link the receiving you 
would be true RF full duplex but with TDD that theory may have holes.

We are seeing something from our Macintosh users only, they are establishing 
200 - 1000 connections in IP/Firewall/Connections.  Connection source is port 
80.  Some go to Google, yahoo, and RIPE Network in Amsterdam, etc.

Had one user run a virus scan, said came up clean
.

My guess is that the Mac users don't tell the connections to close
correctly.  From what everyone keeps saying it should have the same TCP
stack as some *nix kernel, but I have always felt it different.

If you kill their connections, do they come right back?

Have your customer run this in a terminal window (the terminal window is 
found in Applications/Utilities):

sudo netstat -a

Have the customer copy and paste EVERYTHING (they will have to scroll 
up)! into an email and send it to you. Take a look and see what apps are 
making these connections.

 If you go my Radwin's spec sheet they do a remarkable 100 Mb over a 20

 Ligowave says up to 40 Mb and they probably say that depending on

 As far as the customer is concerned you need to provide full duplex to

Re: [WISPA] 4.9 Full Duplex

2009-03-27 Thread Bob Moldashel
The Exalt is also a TDM radio.

I didn't see that Radwin was MIMO. Does it operate on the same channel 
or does horizontal and vertical need to be on separate channels?

I agree that Radwin advertises full duplex but again that is either a 
mistake or sales fluff.  All the equipment is TDD. 

And I agree that as long as the customer gets what he thinks he wants, 
that is the goal.

3-dB Networks wrote:
 Radwin radios are designed for TDM transport... that is really the market
 they play towards... cellular carriers.  Transport is fixed to full
 duplex... and designed with that in mind.  But from an RF standpoint you
 would be right since it only transmits on one channel.

 The Radwin gear transmits in two 20MHz channels, one horizontal polarity and
 one vertical polarity... I don't see any reason to doubt their throughput
 numbers.

 But at the end of the day... if the customer wants to see a full duplex
 radio... only the Radwin one is marketed that way.  My experience is most
 customers like this don't care how it actually works... as long as it does
 what they think they want.

there is no equipment on the Commissions list that does not do TDD or

 The Motorola is rated at 43 Mbps.

 If you go my Radwin's spec sheet they do a remarkable 100 Mb over a 20
 mhz. channel. That's either totall incredible or that's some real fluff!

 Ligowave says up to 40 Mb and they probably say that depending on
 channel size.  But 40 mb is the max.

 I can't answer for Redline as I don't have a public safety spec sheet in

 As far as the customer is concerned you need to provide full duplex to
 his demarc. Do not get confused with what happens when it leaves that
 point.

Re: [WISPA] 4.9 Full Duplex

2009-03-27 Thread 3-dB Networks
Yes it is MIMO.  It operates in the same channel in Horizontal and
Vertical... much like Orthogon et. al.

Your right though... its sales fluff (which in this case though could be
helpful sales fluff).  Guess I got caught up in it without really thinking
about that :-)

The Exalt is also a TDM radio.

I didn't see that Radwin was MIMO. Does it operate on the same channel
or does horizontal and vertical need to be on separate channels?

I agree that Radwin advertises full duplex but again that is either a
mistake or sales fluff.  All the equipment is TDD.

And I agree that as long as the customer gets what he thinks he wants,
that is the goal.

you
 would be right since it only transmits on one channel.

 The Radwin gear transmits in two 20MHz channels, one horizontal
polarity and
 one vertical polarity... I don't see any reason to doubt their
throughput
 numbers.

 But at the end of the day... if the customer wants to see a full

most
 customers like this don't care how it actually works... as long as it

[WISPA] 24ghz links

2009-03-27 Thread Randy Cosby
I'm considering a 24ghz link for a 3 mile shot.  The path calcs all work 
fine for our use, climate, etc. 

I'm interested in hearing first from anyone who has used 24 gigahertz 
radios (dragonwave most likely).  Have you had any interference issues?  
Any recommendations on what to check for besides the clear LOS before 
putting something like this up? How far should you be away from other 
24gig towers?   I thought I had read that the beam was so narrow, 
interference was quite rare, but wanted to hear some real life experiences.

Thanks!

Re: [WISPA] 24ghz links

2009-03-27 Thread Tom DeReggi
Randy,

24Ghz is sometimes thought of as interference free, based on its approximate 
1.5 degree beamwidth at 2ft, and about 2.6 degree beamwidth at 1ft dish.
The dragonwave works on 40mhz channels and allows setting to one of two 
channels sets (A 24078500 tx and 24173829 rx, or B 124126170 tx 24221500 rx)
And then you have polarity diversity.
The antennas have about a -68 F/B ratio, so getting channel reuse at a tower 
is pretty doable.
Currently there is not alot of noise out there, because there weren't a lot 
of products out there, and most people that were willing to spend the money 
for high end gear, were willing to buy 23Ghz licenses.
But it doesn't mean its going to stay that way. For us it has worked pretty 
well.

I will say... I've had a hard time getting one of my 24Ghz links Dragonwave 
links to reach target RSSI, I'm about 15db off. I think its a problem with 
one of the antennas, but I haven't figured it out yet.
With 1-5db low power, its less forgiving on the link budget, if something is 
wrong to hurt the link budget. Rain fade is high.
