ACPLINK V5.0

ACPLINK ACPLINK is a assistant software by design and development of microwave networks PDH, SDH, SCADA, etc, built according to ITU-R recommendations and technical considerations of the telecommunications industry, ACPLINK is a support tool for design engineers who seek a computerized simulation of microwave networks.

ACPLINK V5.0
EASY TO USE AND FRIENDLY ACPLINK has a complete set of tools very easy to use and friendly, with a very short learning curve, the philosophy of software development is to provide tools ACPLINK for use by a Senior Engineer and a Junior Engineer with few hours of training, learning is intuitive since it is software developed by Project Engineers for Project Engineers.

TOOLS ACPLINK has very useful and powerful tools, many of the tools are unique ACPLINK when developing microwave network, a specific example arises during the acquisition of a new web site to expand a microwave network, ACPLINK has several tools for searching repeaters, the program literally tells with a picture of the geography where to put a repeater between the backbone and the target site to which you have to go, ACPLINK has a tool called assistant design that calculates the position exact repeaters along a network that tries to plan, only enter the start and end coordinates and the program then calculated ACPLINK step jumps and will indicate the results in an Excel table.

VERSATILE ACPLINK is software that allows installation on multiple PCs, but the program will only work on that PC with the USB key authentication.

GRAPHIC INTERFACES ACPLINK is built on standards and ITU-R recommendations, recommendations from the telecommunications industry, the software development team includes design engineers that provide ideas for graphic interfaces, also involved software engineers and engineers with extensive experience in the design of microwave networks.

TOPOGRAPHIC DATABASE ACPLINK uses the SRTM topographic database and SRTM-3-1, the latter is only available to U.S. and their associated states, the database SRTM-3 is available for download online and this is usually used by the program ACPLINK, the image shown below is a representation of the numerical database of geography in a monochrome image and is visual reference for user, it is easier for the user to navigate the working image..

PROFILE RADIOLINK ACPLINK has a module that lets you create profiles for a radiolink, the module allows testing and analysis on the profile, also available for integration with Google Earth to view the profile in the GE graphical interface as shown in the following pictures .

PROFILE WITH MISSING DATA ACPLINK uses the SRTM topographic database and SRTM-3-1 (only USA), the database SRTM-3 has some shady areas without terrain height data, so that if a radiolink then crosses these areas, the profile show an image as seen on the left, in the absence of data, the program ACPLINK interpolates data from existing data at their ends, but we also have an online solution: the program has an algorithm that can connect to Google Earth servers and request the missing data, data acquisition is automatic.

MODIFIED PROFILE After obtaining the missing data, the software automatically update the image with the profile with no missing data, we should mention that the data obtained from Google Earth are in the same format WGS84 which is based on SRTM3 data

PROFILE REAL-TIME RADIO LINK IMAGE WORK AREA ACPLINK has the Red module allows us to generate the profiles of a radiolink from a given image, you can create profiles in real time by moving the cursor, also has available a number of tools for applications PtMP

PROFILE Once we have chosen the two points of our radio link now if we can generate the final profile with the Perfil button.

REPEATER ACPLINK has several tools to bucar of repeaters in when there is no line of sight between the initial and final position, shown in the example below shows two points A and B without line of sight and the program calculates a set of solutions which could installing a repeater, and it is seen that real-time profiles of both point A to the variable as variable to point B have line of sight.

AVAILABILITY CALCULATION MODULE DATABASES OF EQUIPMENT AND LINES TRANSMISSION ACPLINK has the module Junior for calculation of link availability, data are acquired profile and database of equipment, transmission lines and antennas, the user only has to choose from a range of options, calculation models are available for popular models of computation: Vigant-Barnett, ITU-R P.530-12, ITU-R and ITU-R Rep.338 P.530-6.

AVAILABILITY CALCULATION MODULE DATA BASE ANTENNAS ACPLINK has a database of antennas that the user will be built according to the technical requirements, as shown in figure lines below each antenna has technical specifications also contain radiation patterns HH, HV, VV and VH the same as serve for Interference Analysis This last tool is not included in the license ACPLINK, Interference Analysis Tool is a separate program that integrates the program ACPLINK V5.0
