For CS = 4°:

For other CS values use the formula:

EXAMPLE

A5 DDM for CS = 5°:

PROCEDURE

Insert the 90°-stub into the SBO path.

Connect a directional coupler with 50

Ω

load to antenna O/P A3.

Connect the NM3710 (use 20 dB attenuator at NM3710 I/P) to the directional coupler's for-

ward port.

Adjust the SBO attenuator (for the Tx to air) until the DDM value equals the previously calcu-

lated value for the CS.

Move the directional coupler to A4, A5, A6 and compare readings with calculated values. If

measured DDM is lower than the calculated values for A4, A5, A6 then increase the SBO

power, or vice versa, until a fairly good matching set of values are obtained.

Adjust the SBO attenuator for the other Tx to the same setting.

Remove the 90°-stub.

2.3.2 DDM field check

Set the localizer to normal radiation. From the centreline of the opposite threshold determine

points perpendicular to the CL 105 meter to both sides of the runway. Use the NM3710 with

portable antenna and measure DDM at these points. The readings should be close to -15.5%

at the 90-side and 15.5% at the 150-side. However, some unsymmetry may be expected due

to reflections and tolerances in the antenna system.

Check the CL DDM at two or three positions in order to estimate an average value.

Expected value: 0.0%±0.2% DDM.
