A sanity check on the suitability of a propagation model can be done by clicking on <Tools/Test Propagation Models> in the main menu of SEAMCAT, by clicking on the icon () of the toolbar or by pressing <CTRL+SHIFT+M>. With this feature, it is possible to evalu...

A sanity check on distributions can be done with the test distribution function from the menu bar of SEAMCAT. The result of generating random values using a particular distribution type can be tested by selecting the <Test Distributions> command from the Works...

A sanity check on the unwanted emission calculation can be done by using the <Test Rel. Unwanted> emission function in the menu bar of SEAMCAT, by clicking on the icon of the toolbar ( ) or by pressing <CTRL+SHIFT+U>. The definition of unwanted emissions mask...

All the vectors (or a subset) that have been generated for one workspace or more can be seen at once. For this, the <Compare Vectors> command is available by clicking this icon  or by pressing <CTRL+SHIFT+V> to open the dialog box in Figure 57.   It allows d...

SEAMCAT contains a builtin pocket calculator. Select the command < Tool/Pocket Calculator> from the Workspace menu, click on the pocket calculator icon of the toolbar ( ) or CTRL+SHIFT+C to activate the Pocket calculator window:    Figure 58: SEAMCAT pocket ...

SEAMCAT provides a direct access to the online manual by clicking on the following symbol .  Each panel contains a specific link where detailed information on the feature or algorithm can be found. In case of need for further information, clarification, or in ...

The SEAMCAT tool is thoroughly tested but in case of need to report bugs or enhancements, send an email to seamcat@eco.cept.org by describing the issue and attach relevant files (i.e. workspace files, screen shots, system log file etc…). Further information on...

From the SEAMCAT library menu it is possible to install a library as a .jar file. By creating a new .jar entry and adding the file SEAMCAT will now include this plugin to be selectable when configuring scenarios.  Figure 61: Installing plugins After installat...

A simulation can be paused when clicking on the Pause button in the simulation control part of the Scenario tab ( ). The simulation pauses and all other commands/buttons are, meanwhile, disabled except the stop button (  ). The simulation is resumed by clicki...

Tx power Distribution Applicability: cellular or generic systems with multiple interferers where individual transmitters exhibit independent random time domain behaviour (e.g. mobile networks, SRDs) The user can set User defined (Stair) distribution wh...

  Running a simulation consists essentially in setting the input parameters of the victim and the interfering system according to your requirement. Similarly, you need to consider the requirement of the geographical location of the various systems. For this e...

The victim parameter characteristics summarised in Table 6 should be entered into SEAMCAT.   Table 6: Characteristics of the victim link pair of receiver and transmitter Parameters Value Units Operating Frequency 1000 MHz Transmitter pow...

In order to set up a workspace, the first step is to set the system that will be used as victim: set the characteristics of the receiver  (that will be the victim link receiver (VLR)) and the transmitter (that will be the victim link transmitter (VLT)). System...

Set now the victim link transmitter by selecting the transmitter tab Figure 74: Selecting the transmitter tab The parameters should be filled as follows: The power is 30 dBm; (#1 of Figure 75) An omni-directional antenna of 9 dBi is used; The antenna he...

Define now the positions of transmitters and receivers of the victim link. Figure 76: Selecting the Tx to Rx path tab   SEAMCAT allows defining the locations of the Victim link receiver and the Victim link transmitter in a fixed manner (correlated) or followi...

Since both the transmitter and the receiver characteristics and the location between the two have been defined, the propagation model needed for the simulation can be now selected. To simplify this task, let us assume that the free space model is used to calcu...

Using the Free space equation, the power received by the Victim link receiver (dRSS) can be easily derived:   (Eq. 17)   Keep this calculation in mind, as it will be compared with what SEAMCAT calculates in the following sections.

When setting the system is complete, it is possible to export it to the library, so it can be reused in a future point of time.   Figure 82: Example of importing/exporting a system to library
