Advanced Technology UHF Receiver Study Part I, Receiver Performance Measurements

摘要

The report presents technical data regarding the performance of the FCC (RFM) advanced technology television receiver. The tests performed on the receiver included measurements related to UHF taboos, receiver noise figure, other interference susceptibilities related to the receiver's design, and operational characteristics. The receiver operates on VHF as well as UHF; however, its operation on VHF is considered non-significant in most respects as the primary purpose of the new receiver is for study of UHF questions. The receiver is viewed as a device of laboratory interest and not as a prototype for consumer production televisions. Even if the results of the FCC (RFM) technology are considered encouraging, it is anticipated that individual receiver manufacturers will design different receiver architectures, although the RFM architecture could be employed in consumer products. The results in this report must be viewed in that light.
