revisions also improve receiver performance in the presence of high-level in-band interferers. An active antenna is included in the receiver specification. The active antenna uses filters and LNAs selected and arranged to greatly reduce overload of
the early amplification stages by out of band interference without severely sacrificing Noise Figure performance. Also a filter located immediately at the input to the RF Tuner section of the receiver is used to further protect the first LNA of the
tuner in the presence of intense out-of-band interference.

 Technical Specification for WorldSpace Receiver 
  
 The overall block diagram of the receiver from the space interface of the antenna to the
mixer interface to the IF is shown in Figure 1. In the figure are shown the cascade of LNAs and filters that comprise the antenna section and also those that comprise the RF tuner up to the IF mixer. Along the chain will be seen the gains of the
amplifiers, the expected insertion losses of the filters and the loss of the cable that connects the antenna unit to the tuner unit input. Also shown are the IP3 levels expected of each LNA. 
  
 Figure 1 shows the antenna unit configuration for a dual polarized antenna. It has two arms,
one for Left Hand and the other for Right Hand Polarization. A receiver activated signal quality switch selects that arm that yields the best-received quality. If a horizontal linear polarized antenna is used, only one arm is needed. It will have
the components of one of the arms as shown in Figure 2. 
  

			
	RS 0100	  	The receiver will function properly under all climatic conditions, e.g. temperature, humidity, impact and vibration that will normally occur within the WorldSpace Service Area when used
properly by the customer.
		
	RS 0200	  	The user interface will be easy to understand and the receiver will be easy to handle. Basic WorldSpace related operating procedures shall be discussed and agreed upon with
WorldSpace.
		
	RS 0300	  	A visual signal quality indication will be provided to allow the user to optimize the orientation of the antenna towards the satellite.
		
	RS 0400	  	As a program selection aid for the end user, logic filter mechanisms may be included for preferred language and program category. Program Type List and Language List is given in
[1].
		
	RS 0500	  	The receiver will have a display, e.g. for the service label, with a minimum of 8 alphanumeric characters (ASCII coded).
		
	RS 0600	  	WorldSpace will provide a WorldSpace Decryption Scheme, which is integrated in the STARMAN Chipsets. The receiver will include additional microcomputer software to enable decryption of all
service components of one broadcast channel that is encrypted with the WorldSpace Encryption Scheme.
		
	RS 0700	  	After reorganization of the selected broadcast channel, the receiver will be reconfigured automatically. As an example, a broadcaster might use all of its capacity for high-quality audio
during music transmission, but split this capacity from time to time into individual speech channels in different languages during transmission of news, advertisements, etc
		
	RS 0800	  	If batteries are used, the recommended minimum battery lifetime will be 24 hours, measured at an audio source bit rate of 64 kbps, audio volume level at zero and using Alkaline-Manganese
batteries.

	RS 1000	  	To enable outdoor reception by the antenna, while keeping the receiver indoors, the antenna will be detachable from the receiver. A feeder cable with a minimum length of 5m between
the detached external antenna and the indoor receiver shall be usable. The cable itself could be an optional accessory. The receiver will be equipped with an antenna socket to permit insertion of the cable. The antenna signal will be fed to the

 Notes: 
  

	a)	The active antenna noise temperature Tant shall
be measured according to the comparison method (Y-Method). 

  
 This method compares the noise output of the active antenna system oriented towards the surface of the earth, which is assumed to have a temperature of about 300 K, with the noise output resulting when the antenna is
oriented perpendicular to the sky with an assumed temperature of 20 K. Alternatively, an anechoic chamber can be used applying the minimum PFD to the antenna. Due to the 300 K of the chamber, the transmitted minimal PFD has to be increased
accordingly (see antenna test procedure). 
  

	b)	To achieve this Tant, a LNA noise figure of
about 1.8 dB is anticipated. 

  

	c)	Tsystem is assumed to rise to 200 K due to the
noise contribution of the receiver. 

  

	d)	At a beam center PFD of -137 dBW/m 2/4 kHz,
resulting in a TDM PFD of -109.6 dBW/m2, the theoretical link margin of 0 dB is reached at a PFD of -109.6 dBW/m2 - 4.4 dB - 6 dB = -120 dBW/m2 for a 6 dBi antenna. With this PFD the active antenna should supply an output level of
–88.3 dBm. This latter value includes an insertion loss for the antenna to receiver feeder cable of 5dB. 

  

	e)	Image rejection shall be measured at RFmax (1492
MHz) - 2 x IF frequency (2 x 115) = 1262 MHz. 

  

	f)	C/N = 4.0 dB at QPSK demodulator input for a source TDM test generator without satellite signal deterioration. 

  
 C/N = 4.5 dB at QPSK demodulator input for a real satellite signal with
deterioration due to TWT non linearity effects source or a TDM test generator with appropriate added noise. 
  
 Measurement procedure: 
  

	 	1)	TDM signal generator switched off. 

  

	 	2)	Within the assigned TDM bandwidth of 2.3 MHz the noise N shall be integrated. 

  

	 	3)	TDM signal generator switched on. 

  

	 	4)	Within the assigned TDM bandwidth of 2.3 MHz the signal + noise (S + N) shall be integrated. 

  

	 	5)	Calculate S/N in dB from the results of 2) and 4) 

  

	 	6)	Calculate C/N using C/N = S/N + 1.46 dB.

 Overview of the Receiver Antenna and Tuner Sections 
  
 A block
diagram for the implementation of the RF sections of the receiver, from the dual polar antenna outputs to the Tuner section preceding the IF mixer, is shown in Figure 1. Low loss filters (pass-band loss of nominally 0.5 dB) having the characteristic
given in Figure 3, first separately filter the left hand and right hand outputs of the dual polar Antenna Unit. Each is fed to an LNA having –20 dBm IP3 with 15 dB gain. A switch next selects that polarization yielding the best receiver
performance quality as determined by receiver signal processing logic. This switch has an insertion loss of 1 dB. The selected antenna output is fed to a 2nd filter having the characteristic shown in Figure 4. This filter shall have an in-band insertion loss of nominally 3 dB. Because of the gain of the preceding LNA stage, this arrangement does not
significantly deteriorate the receiver’s NF performance. The 2nd filter output feeds the last LNA stage of the
Antenna Unit. It has a gain of 15 dB and an IP3 of –10 dBm. A cable having a loss of up to 5 dB connects the Antenna Unit to the Tuner input. This supplies input to a 3rd filter having the characteristic shown in Figure 4 and thence to the Tuner LNA stage. The output of the latter stage feeds to the IF mixer. 
  
 Figure 1 also shows the gains and losses and the expected signal levels at various points
along the chain of components. The overall filter action of the cascade of the three filters as seen at the output of the Tuner LNA is shown in Figure 5. The 0 dB level on this graph corresponds to a level of –71.8 dBm. 
  
 Figure 2 revises the Antenna Unit to operate with a linear antenna rather than the dual
polarized patch antenna. 
  
 Ancillary Information 
  
 The satellite’s radiated EIRP and the distance to the earth determine the range of the
electromagnetic wave flux density falling on the earth. The radiated beam center EIRP of the satellite is 52.5 dBW. The shortest distance to the earth from geostationary orbit is 36,000 km and the longest is 41600 km. Assuming square law spreading,
the resulting beam center flux density values are -109.6 and - 110.9 respectively. The latter value equates to at a PFD of –137 dBW/m2/4 kHz assuming TDM signal is contained in a bandwidth of 2 MHz, then the PFD from the satellite corresponds –109.6 dBW/m2/4kHz. 
  
 With reference to the
– 3 dB beam contour relative to beam center, a link margin of 6 dB for a 6dBi gain antenna is achieved. Correspondingly, the margin will be zero at a contour with 3 + 6 = 9 dB attenuation relative to the beam center, resulting in PFD of -120
dBW / m2. With this minimum usable PFD, a minimum specified receiver level of -88 dBm has to be delivered to the receiver’s antenna socket input. 
  
 To compensate for a maximum cumulated antenna-to-receiver cable loss of 10 dB (5 dB cable fixed to antenna plus 5 dB cable inserted between antenna plug and tuner input
socket) in case of detached antenna use, and the worst case tolerance of the antenna output signal of -3 dB, the minimum output level at the end of the inserted cable observed at the receiver socket is –96 dBm. This assumes an antenna gain of 6
dBi. 
  
 To 12) Signal behavior at receiver antenna input. The
maximum level of the used signal (defining the required AGC range) is –30 dBm. An in-band CW interferer up to a level of –30 dBm has to be tolerated before it is reduced by the SAW filter. 
  
 The receiver’s noise figure limitation is changed to 10 dB, as the influence of this
parameter after a previous LNA gain of 15 dB can be easily tolerated. 
  
 To
19) Demodulation performance: The carrier-to-noise value deserves additional clarification and reference to a test procedure. This parameter is primarily determined by the StarMan chipset. To avoid the requirement in the test equipment of
including a TWT-simulator for the non linearity-effects, 2 limits are mentioned here. The value of 4.0 dB ignores the influence of satellite transponder non-linearity (intermodulation noise) and applies when a test signal is derived from a linear
signal source. The value of 4.5 dB includes satellite non-linearity effects and applies for tests using the real satellite signals.

 Appendix 7 
  

Licensed WORLDSPACE Marks 

 III. CORPORATE IDENTITY 
  

A. WorldSpace Corporate Colors 
  

	 	•	 	Color is the foundation of the WorldSpace corporate, regional and brand identity systems; 

  

	 	•	 	Exact color matching is required of all vendors; 

  

	 	•	 	HQ will send you perforated color swatches that are accurate representations of the corporate colors printed on both coated and uncoated paper stocks. Attach a swatch to every piece
of camera-ready artwork or with electronic files sent to a printer. All printers must be capable of and required to match these swatches; 

  

	 	•	 	Never match colors by using previously printed pieces. Protect these swatches from exposure to sunlight; 

  

	 	•	 	When printing four-color material always use the four-color separated signature (logo); 

  
 B. Pantone Matching System (PMS) 
  
 The Pantone Matching System® is a standard in the printing industry. There are no exact color matches for WorldSpace colors in any other printing ink system. 
  

			
	 •      WorldSpace Blue
	 	 Coated: PMS 301 Uncoated: PMS 301

		
	 •      WorldSpace Purple 2602
	 	 Coated: PMS 2593 Uncoated: PMS

		
	 •      WorldSpace Yellow
	 	 Coated: PMS 142 Uncoated: PMS 129

		
	 •      WorldSpace Metallic Silver
	 	 Coated and Uncoated: PMS 877

  
 C. Four Color Process

  

			
	 •      WorldSpace Blue
	 	 100c, 43m, Oy, 18k

		
	 •      WorldSpace Purple
	 	 79c, 100m, Oy, Ok

		
	 •      WorldSpace Yellow
	 	 Oc, 24m, 76y, Ok

		
	 •      WorldSpace Metallic Silver
	 	 There is no process equivalent.

		
	 	 	 Converting to grayscale for four color process is unacceptable.

  
 D. Greyscale Usage 

 
 In rare instances, the WorldSpace logo will be printed in greyscale.
Examples include newspapers, one-color programs and similar publications. 
  
 Never use the greyscale WorldSpace signature on a dark or black background. If it must set on a dark field, place within a white bounding box. WorldSpace Signature (Logo) 

 E. WorldSpace Signature (Logo) 
  
 General outline and description: 
  

	 	•	 	The embodiment of our structure, goals, and ideals; 

  

	 	•	 	Balance: three points define the most stable structure; 

  

	 	•	 	Harmony: between our humanitarian ideals and our fiscal responsibilities. 

  
 The WorldSpace Signature (Logo) consists of: 
  

	 	•	 	The WorldSpace Icon (three orbits and a central hub); 

  

	 	•	 	The WorldSpace Logotype set in Frutiger Condensed, the official WorldSpace typeface. 

  
 F. Alterations 
  
 There shall be NO alterations to any file to change color,. size or placement. Only the following versions have been officially approved. When scaling the
logo for layout it must be done proportionally and the “Icon” must not be reduced to less than ONE INCH. 
  
 G. File Format 
  
 Please keep the logoart in the same file format it was created in. The WorldSpace logo is an Adobe Illustrator EPS file. There is no reason to convert
this file into any other format for printing purposes (NO Photothop bitmap or tiff). Illustrator EPS files are vector based, meaning that they can be scaled to any size without losing their resolution. There is also no need for a clipping path -
the. logo and type will be automatically silhouetted. 
  
 H. WorldSpace Icon

  
 The immediately identifiable WorldSpace Icon: 

 

	 	•	 	Three interlocking “orbits” clearly represent the three WorldSpace satellites and coverage areas, with a central hub representing both Earth and our listeners;

  

	 	•	 	The icon never appears alone upon first viewing, but may be used alone after the full WorldSpace Signature has been established (i.e., second page letterhead; presentation screens,
etc.); 

  

	 	•	 	The icon must appear in its entirety; 

  

	 	•	 	Do not show the arcs or hub alone; 

  

	 	•	 	Do not bleed the icon off of a page or screen; 

  

	 	•	 	Do not rotate the icon. 

  
 I. Color 
  
 The center
sphere, or “hub,” is always blue - the same blue as the blue arc. The colors of the arcs cannot be switched or altered.

 J. WorldSpace Logotype 
  

The Logotype of our organization is WorldSpace. “WorldSpace” is always spelled with a capital “W” and a capital “S.” This
word should always appear as Frutiger Bold Condensed.

 O. Background Color Usage 
  
 The WorldSpace logo is most effective against a white, black, PMS 877 silver background or any of the colors in the
complementary palette. Avoid high contrast ring backgrounds; they interfere with legibility. Avoid any solid color with a value too close to any of the three logo colors.

 Rules for using the WorldSpace Signature on a dark background: 
  

	 	•	 	Icon: all colors of the icon remain the same;
