General Information
Overview
EN 61079-2:1993 (adopted by CLC; identical to IEC 61079-2:1992) specifies methods of measurement on receivers for satellite broadcast transmissions in the 12 GHz band - Part 2 focuses on electrical measurements on DBS (Direct Broadcast Satellite) tuner units. The standard applies to the tuner unit of a receiver used for direct reception of satellite broadcast transmissions in the 12 GHz band and defines the measurement conditions and methods to be applied.
Key Topics
- Scope and applicability - Defines what part of a satellite receiver the standard covers (the DBS tuner unit) and the 12 GHz frequency band context.
- Measurement conditions - Specifies environmental and electrical conditions required for repeatable tests (test setup, input/output connections, and reference levels).
- Measurement methods - Describes procedural steps and instrumentation approaches to produce comparable electrical measurement results for tuner units.
- Test reporting - Guidance on documenting test conditions and results so measurements are reproducible and auditable.
- Note: The extracted document text does not list individual test items. However, electrical measurement standards for DBS tuner units commonly cover parameters such as sensitivity, noise performance, selectivity, spurious responses and oscillator stability; users should consult the full EN/IEC text for the authoritative list of tests and tolerances.
Applications
This standard is practical for professionals and organizations involved in the design, verification and compliance testing of satellite receiving equipment:
- Tuner and receiver manufacturers - Use the measurement methods to validate electrical performance during development and production.
- Test laboratories and certification bodies - Apply the defined conditions and procedures to produce consistent, comparable test reports for compliance and type approval.
- Quality assurance and R&D engineers - Employ the standard to benchmark tuners, troubleshoot performance issues, and ensure interoperability with satellite broadcast systems in the 12 GHz band.
- Regulatory and telecom authorities - Reference the standard for measuring receiver characteristics when setting or enforcing technical requirements for satellite reception.
Related Standards
- IEC 61079-2:1992 - The originating IEC document referenced in the EN adoption.
- Other EN/IEC standards on satellite receiver measurements and RF testing may be relevant when conducting complete receiver or system-level evaluations.
