Telewave.io’s Tower Top Amplifiers and Preselectors: Enhancing Radio Communication Performance
Tower top amplifiers (TTAs) and preselectors are crucial in optimizing radio communication systems, particularly in environments where tower space is limited and interference is a concern. Telewave.io offers a range of high-quality tower top preamps and preselectors designed to improve receiver sensitivity, reduce interference, and enhance overall system performance.
Improved Receiver Sensitivity
Tower-top amplifiers can significantly enhance receiver sensitivity, providing a 4dB to 9dB improvement in effective receiver sensitivity compared to rack-mounted, shelter-housed systems. This improvement improves range and performance, especially for multiple land mobile fixed receivers at remote communication sites.
Optimized Signal Filtering
The preselector component of a TTA system acts as a bandpass filter, preventing receiver overload from strong out-of-band signals. Telewave.io’s preselectors offer bandwidth options, from as narrow as 0.5MHz to more than 20MHz, depending on specific site and equipment requirements.
Reduced Interference
By providing optimal filtering of signals, tower top preselectors help minimize intermodulation interference between transmitters and receivers at a radio site. This is particularly valuable in crowded tower environments where multiple systems operate nearby.
Space-Saving Solution
With tower space at a premium, TTAs allow for the optimization of antenna usage by enabling multiple receivers to share a single antenna. This can lead to better deployment of both receive and transmit antennas, maximizing the use of limited tower real estate.
