Abstract
A microcomputer-based software for analyzing radio-frequency interference is presented in this article. The latest enhancement (Version 5) of the Spectral Analysis Tool (SAT) contains numerous features essential for effective spectrum management. Included in the SAT windows menu are editors of signal/interference, filters, spikes, power spectrum plots, calculators for spectral power, telecommunicationlink budget tables, and interference analysis tables. The configuration menu for the analysis table contains options on antennas, amplifiers, and receivers for ground terminal characterization. The complete software package of SAT, with a Windows installation program, fits within a single 3.5-inch diskette for easy distribution. Signal and ground terminal models are described. Finally, examples of the application of SAT also are included in this article.
