A few things come to mind: 1) Multiplexing does not increase the bandwidth capability of a channel. You mention various forms of multiplexing, but these will not increase the channel capacity. They are just different ways of utilizing what is available. 2) The Hartley-Shannon Law gives the maximum bandwidth of a channel as C = B log2(1+(s/n)) bits/second; where B is bandwidth (Hz) and s/n is expressed as a value, not in dB. Given this, to get 80 megabits of signal in a 100 kilobit channel, you will need a signal/noise ratio of about 2408 dB. Since you were only starting with a 10 watt signal, with about 100 dB path loss (after including the two j-poles), and a terrrestrial noise floor of about -124 dBm for the 100 kHz wide channel, you get only about 60 - 64 dB s/n in your receiver (assuming things like lossless coax, etc.). Thus you are about 2340 dB short on signal to accomplish the task as described. See http://encyclopedia.laborlawtalk.com/Shannon_limit for more discussion of this. Your numbers are a bit too far from what can reasonably be believed. Thanks for doing the math :-) I thought he claimed a 10 KHz channel ... but might be wrong. You could cool the receiver and heat the transmitter (1500W, larger dish) and get perhaps 20 - 40 more db ... that would help :-) Then you might be only 2300 db short. -- ...

I was wondering when someone would stumble across the Hartley-Shannon
"law"... Like most laws of this nature, they break down at the extremes (i.e. Relativity fails on the scale of the very small and Quantum Mechanics fails on the scale of the very large... For my money, I'm betting on M Theory (formerly String Theory) to be the true GUT). Plug the numbers in for CAT6 over 100 m running a 10 Gbps data stream. You will find that the equation fails in that it will tell that you can't do that and, if set up right, it will send you the fact that it is impossible OVER the 10 Gbps, 100 m run. By the same token, if you plug in numbers for, say, 1.2 Kbps over CAT6 of 500 m length, that won't work either. The fact is, we (the telecomm/data comm industry) do it every day. Keep in mind that we all tend to "think inside the box" and say that things (pick one) are impossible because of some theory or "law". As a general rule, we end up being wrong. Case in point, everyone knows that the velocity of light (c) is the "Cosmic Speed Limit". Einstein said so and had the math to prove it. Quantum Mechanics and M Theory both have solutions that allow for FTL... And some have some rather unpleasant side effects. But enough of the arcane math and other arenas... Try to "think outside of the box"... Think about ways to do: 1) Ultra high speed data over RF media; 2) Make the system so cheap and easy that everyone will want one; 3) Perhaps get the attention of the commercial sector. Everyone sitting around bemoaning the obstacles that need to be over come are counter productive. There is no such thing as "I can't do that." There is only "I won't do that." At the risk of sounding Republican (which I am) and of sounding like I agree with President Bush (which I do not at least 50% of the time) you need to decide how much, if any, effort, thinking, and support you are willing to give. If you are interested in digital modes, you will be willing to put in what is needed. If you are not interested in the digital modes, you should at least get out of the way of those who do. But, I wax philosophical... And even with 2 doctorate degrees, neither qualifies me to be a philosopher. Take Care & 73 -- From The Desk Of Marty Albert, KC6UFM "Alan" wrote in message ...

om... I was wondering when someone would stumble across the Hartley-Shannon "law"... What do you mean "stumble across it" ??? Like most laws of this nature, they break down at the extremes (i.e. Relativity fails on the scale of the very small and Quantum Mechanics fails on the scale of the very large... For my money, I'm betting on M Theory (formerly String Theory) to be the true GUT). Shannon's theorem, Hartley-Shannon, etc. just describe what nature does. Plug the numbers in for CAT6 over 100 m running a 10 Gbps data stream. You will find that the equation fails in that it will tell that you can't do that and, if set up right, it will send you the fact that it is impossible OVER the 10 Gbps, 100 m run. Um ... no ...

Try to "think outside of the box"... Think about ways to do: 1) Ultra high speed data over RF media; What is hard about that? 2) Make the system so cheap and easy that everyone will want one; If you think you have a way to do so, I will buy a *bunch* of them. Send me a quote via email. Will submit the order. 3) Perhaps get the attention of the commercial sector. Odd, I kinda suspect the "commercial sector" is doing some work on this. Everyone sitting around bemoaning the obstacles that need to be over come are counter productive. Oh, good. Send me that quote. There is no such thing as "I can't do that." Yes, there is. There is only "I won't do that." It is nature that will "not do that". At the risk of sounding Republican (which I am) and of sounding like I agree with President Bush (which I do not at least 50% of the time) you need to decide how much, if any, effort, thinking, and support you are willing to give. You need to take Thermo 101. If you are interested in digital modes, you will be willing to put in what is needed. What is needed? If you are not interested in the digital modes, you should at least get out of the way of those who do. Send me that quote. But, I wax philosophical...

It is the exact equivalent of those little pills you drop into the gas tank of your car, and then get 100 MPG from water. However, there is one difference. I can purchase those pills, test them, and destroy my engine while getting 10 MPG :-) I cannot purchase the magic "Shannon violating channel".

Troll? Hardly...
Making a point? Absolutely... Refer to the very first message in this topic. Based on the E-Mail I have been getting, it would seem that most of the lurkers in the group got the point Take Care & 73 -- From The Desk Of Marty Albert, KC6UFM |

I would love to as soon as the university approves the release...
In the meantime, it is all proprietary and property of the university. Take Care & 73 -- From The Desk Of Marty Albert, KC6UFM "Dana H. Myers" wrote in message ...
