Abstract

Gives specifications for the standardization of the technical characteristics of satellite receiving earth stations, capable of television signals reception. The equipment considered is confined to the "outdoor unit" that consists of the antenna with the feed and the low-noise amplifier with its associated down-converter, known as a Low-Noise Block converter (LNB).
