MEJORAMIENTO DE COBERTURA DE LA SEÑAL DE ECUAVISA CANAL 2 EN LA CIUDAD DE GUAYAQUIL, ECUADOR

Abstract

For he improvement of a RF Television transmission System, it is very important the design, assembly and commissioning of all antenna system, it is a essential part for the correct signal transmission over a specific area to transmit. The transmission of the Ecuavisa Channel 2 signal over Guayaquil city was with low field strength signal for long time, due to a lot of inconvenient that the old antennas system had from the beginning, until 2003 the Television Station directive decide to upgrade the antenna system with an almost complete redesign, after that, the signal levels, video and audio quality and even coverage area improved markedly and satisfactory way, as it was proposed like an first objective. We decided to build a new self supported tower like strategy, with an idea to have a taller tower and that the average height of new antenna system be much greater tan the previous, and thus ensure that antenna gain, number of bays, panel numbers per bay, and null fill was achieved to have and capable array to cover all the city and its suburban area with greater field strength signal.
