AECOM Final Coverage Acceptance Test for
Contra Costa County West Simulcast Cell
4 1 Purpose
This Coverage Acceptance Test Report provides the East Bay Regional Communications System Authority (EBRCSA) a detailed report of the radio coverage testing conducted by AECOM in the Contra Costa County West (Contra Costa County West) simulcast cell. This test report describes the coverage testing methods and procedures, provides test documentation and results, the responsibilities AECOM, EBRCSA, and Motorola had during testing, and finally, provides our conclusions and recommendations.

AECOM’s Radio Coverage Evaluator (RaCE
SM
)1 was used to perform the Delivered Audio Quality (DAQ) Portable Outdoor and simulated indoor testing of the service area. DAQ testing collects talk-in and talk-out audio recordings and calculates Delivered Audio Quality (DAQ) values for each recorded test calls. The test evaluated the voice coverage performance under typical operating conditions within the Contra Costa County West service area using a mobile radio to simulate a portable radio operating at hip level. This automated test was conducted concurrently with Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) testing conducted by RaCE
SM
. RSSI testing is an additional automated test.

Prior to DAQ testing, Motorola conducted BER testing using their Voyager℠ test equipment. AECOM had planned on collecting BER test data with RaCE, but due to limitations in Motorola’s Simulcast equipment, AECOM was unable to conduct BER testing.

Per the specifications developed by AECOM for EBRCSA, a DAQ of 3 is the minimum acceptable level for two-way voice operations in talk-in and talk-out directions. Motorola performed talk-out only a BER based test, with a BER of 2.6% as the maximum acceptable level. All RSSI testing was conducted for informational purposes only.

The following excerpts from the coverage sections of the EBRCSA Radio System Specifications (dated October 21, 2010) are included as an exhibit:

4.7 Coverage Requirements
“The guaranteed performance of this radio system is 95% coverage in both directions (talk-out and talk-in) within the covered area indicated on the propagation maps provided by Motorola.

“When the entire system is completed and all of the standalone sites are fully integrated with the simulcast systems, a minimum level of 95% coverage of the specified type for both talk-out and talk-in directions, in all of the test sectors, shall be achieved in the “covered areas”. The reliability shall be calculated as a composite value for the two-county radio system by dividing the total number of passed tiles by the total number of tiles tested. In order to be counted as a “passed tile”, both the talk-in and talk-out DAQ values shall be equal or greater than 3.

“4.7.1 Coverage Charts and Analysis
Motorola shall provide coverage charts in the proposal as supporting documentation. The coverage chart will be used as supporting documentation only and shall not be considered a part of confirming or guaranteeing that the system will meet the coverage specifications. Include a detailed description of the propagation models used and the assumptions made in preparation of the coverage charts included in your proposal.

Include an analysis of tower-top amplifier (TTA) system performance for those sites where TTA’s are included in the design.

“Coverage charts shall be provided for each Coverage Test Sector. The predicted coverage shall be overlaid on a map with the specified Coverage Test Sector clearly defined. The coverage chart shall identify all areas within the Coverage Test Sector that do not meet the specified requirement. Identified coverage deficiency areas in the Coverage Test Sector shall be taken into account when constructing the composite 95% boundary. All areas within the defined Coverage Test Sector shall be considered equal when selecting random coverage test locations.

5 “4.7.2 Building Loss Factors
All of the Coverage Test Sectors require in-building portable radio coverage. In these Coverage Test Sectors, a Building Loss Factor will be inserted in the test setup to simulate building penetration losses.

Building Loss Factors are defined below:

Building
Characterization
Building Loss
Factor (dB)
Residential 6
Medium Building 15
Heavy Building 20

“4.7.3 Service Area and Coverage Test Sectors
The service area for the EBRCS is defined by the boundaries of Alameda and Contra Costa Counties.

“4.7.3.1 Contra Cost a County West Region
The Contra Costa West Region is bounded on the north, west, and south by the county borders. On the east, the line will run south from Crockett (with Crockett inside the test zone), curving east to fully encapsulate Hercules, and then curving back west to run along the western shore of the San Pablo Reservoir, then south to the border with Alameda County. The region contains two test sectors, which completely cover the region.

Test sector 1a: Contra Costa West, Portable on Street (6 dB loss) – includes the entire region described above minus test sector 1b described below.

Test sector 1b: Richmond, Portable in Medium Building (15 dB loss): includes the Cities of Richmond and El Cerrito. This test sector is defined in the Motorola provided shape files named Contra Costa West 7 (The Jail) and Contra Costa West 13.”

6 2 Definition and Process

2.1 Channel Performance Criterion (CPC)
The channel performance criterion (CPC) is the specified design performance in a faded channel.

2.2 Delivered Audio Quality
Delivered audio quality (DAQ) designations are defined by TIA/EIA TSB-88.1-C and reproduced below in Table 2-1.

Note: DAQ-0 is not defined by TSB-88.1-C: AECOM has added this definition to account for instances where communications failed entirely. For example, a test in which the mobile unit was unable to obtain a channel grant would receive a DAQ score of 0.

Table 2-1 Delivered Audio Quality

2.3 Received Signal Strength Indication
Received signal strength indication (RSSI) is the radio signal strength measured in microvolts (μV) or in decibels in relation to 1 milliwatt at the input to the receiver (dBm). No acceptance criterion for RSSI has been provided for this test.

2.4 Bit Error Rate
Bit Error Rate is the ratio of erroneous bits received to the total number of bits transmitted, usually expressed as a percent.

2.5 Service Area and Conditions
The service area defines or describes the area in which a radio system should provide the desired CPC.

7 The Contra Costa County West service area is divided into two test sectors: 1a and 1b, shown in Figure 2-1. Test sector 1b is a developed area, and requires portable radio in medium building coverage, defined as 15 dB of additional loss when compared with operating a portable radio on the street. To simulate testing inside medium buildings, testing was conducted using a portable-on-street setup with an added 15 dB loss. Test sector 1a was tested as a portable radio on the street.

8 2.6 Motorola Covered Area Reliability
Based on their coverage predictions, Motorola has defined an area within Contra Costa County West over which its radio system is predicted to provide 95% area reliability. This is defined as the Motorola Covered Area, and is what was tested for system acceptance. This area is shown as tiles with a red outline in Figure 2-2 (“Motorola Covered Area”). Not all of these tiles are vehicle accessible. In addition to performing DAQ and RSSI testing in the Motorola Covered Area, AECOM tested all accessible tiles within the jurisdictional area. Tiles that AECOM was able to access and gather test data are shown in Figure 2- 2 (“AECOM Tested Tiles”).

9 2.7 Validated Service Area Reliability

Coverage testing is a statistical process. Validated service area reliability is determined on the basis of measuring a statistically significant number of random test locations, uniformly distributed throughout the entire service area.

Validated service area reliability is the percentage of locations where talk-in and talk out radio communications meets or exceeds the desired CPC. The validated service area reliability value in percent is calculated by dividing the number of valid test measurements within the defined service area that meet or exceed the required CPC by the total number of valid test measurements.

As the system acceptance is based on the covered area reliability, the validated service area reliability is provided for information only.

SM
test set consisted of two units: a stationary and a mobile unit. For details on installation, see section 6.

The RaCE
SM
mobile unit (Figure 3-1) consists of the following equipment:
 Mobile radio (700/800MHz APX-7500, supplied by EBRCSA)  Two RSSI Receivers (ICOM, provided with RaCE
SM
)
 Mobile antenna for each of the above radios (supplied by EBRCSA)  GPS receiver and antenna for measuring test vehicle location and establishing universal time  A laptop computer running AECOM’s RaCE
SM
software
 Interconnecting hardware and cables
 An attenuation network consisting of a circulator and se veral attenuators to give the Motorola APX-7500 mobile the simulated characteristics of a portable radio worn on the hip, located either on the street or in medium buildings (depending on the test sector).

13 3.2 The Test Sequences
The DAQ test sequence was:
 The mobile system keeps track of its loca tion and which tiles have already been tested  When the mobile test system recognizes that it has entered an untested tile, the mobile test system transmits a recorded message to the stationary test system.
 The stationary system receives t he mobile’s message and records it.  After the mobile system finishes transmitting, the stationar y system transmits a recorded message to the mobile system.  The mobile system receives and records the stati onary system’s test message and RSSI measurements.  The mobile system marks the tile as having been tested.

3.3 The Test Set Calibration
Motorola was responsible for the programming and calibration of all mobile radios.

RaCE
SM includes a proprietary algorithm that evaluates DAQ based on added noise or distortion in the received audio of the RaCE
SM
test message. DAQ is not based on signal strength or on bit error rate. Using telecommunication professionals, AECOM has calibrated the effects of noise or distortion on DAQ scores. AECOM then used this input to validate the proprietary algorithm inherent in the RaCE
SM software.

3.4 RaCE SM Equipment Setup
AECOM developed the connector interfaces to the test radios. RaCE SM
uses the input to the microphone as the point at which
to inject the audio signal for the test call. The output to the speakers is the point at which the received audio signal is sent to the RaCE
SM
computer for recording and DAQ scoring. The connector for the test radio contains these points, and served as the interface to the RaCE
SM
mobile and stationary units. We integrated the test radios to the RaCE SM
equipment in our lab, and
adjusted the audio levels for optimum radio performance in a laboratory setting. Standard connectors, supplied with the test radios by BERCSA, enabled us to build the interface cabling between the RaCE SM
stationary and mobile units and the test
radios.

Using the interface cables, we configured the RaCE
SM
mobile unit and the RaCE
SM
stationary unit with an EBRCSA supplied
radio. Mobile radios were used for both the RaCE
SM
mobile and stationary units. We then tested each system (mobile + stationary units) for all required test functions on the bench in our lab.

After the bench testing was complete, the RaCE
SM
mobile and stationary systems were shipped to Contra Costa County, where the mobile was installed in the test vehicle, and the stationary installed in the hotel. The RaCE SM
operator then conducted a
road test lasting approximately two hours. All functions to be used in the coverage test were checked during this road test.

To test portable on street coverage with a mobile radio, AECOM installed an attenuator network in the mobile test unit. The attenuator network was designed to simulate portable radio antenna mounted on the hip and, in the medium building coverage zone, in-building conditions. Figure 3-3 is a diagram of the attenuator network used to emulate portable radio receives (Talk- Out) and transmits (Talk-In) under various coverage levels.

14 Figure 3-3 Attenuator Network

Table 3-1 provides the calculations for each attenuator for simulating portable-on-street radio performance. It consists of three attenuators. Attenuator 1 is set to compensate for differences in receive system sensitivity of the typical radio being simulated and the test radio. Attenuator 2 is set to compensate for differences in transmit power of the typical radio being simulated and the test radio. Attenuator 3 is set to simulate the level of in-building coverage. When testing Test Sector 1b, which required portable radio in medium building coverage, attenuator 3 was 15 dB, as shown in Table 3-2.

17 4 Test Method

4.1 Test Mode
A gridded test determined test points and collect data for coverage acceptance testing.

In the gridded test mode, the area to be tested was divided into equally sized rectangular tiles. Testing large number of tiles is necessary to provide a statistically valid measurement of the overall system performance.

Motorola provided the shape file2 for the test tiles. The tile size was approximately 0.25 miles x 0.25 miles, with the total area defined as 50 tiles wide (x-axis) numbered 0 through 50, and 98 tiles high (y-axis) numbered 0 through 97. Tile 0,0 was the south-west corner of the grid. These test tiles were used by AECOM for the DAQ and RSSI testing.

During the test, the mobile unit was driven throughout the service area, in an effort to enter every tile. As the mobile unit entered a tile, the RaCE
SM
software established whether that tile had been tested before, and if not, it activated the test sequence beginning with the talk-in transmission. The stationary unit recorded the talk-in transmission and then initiated the talk-out transmission. The mobile unit recorded the talk-out transmission along with RSSI data during the talk-out transmission and waited until a new, untested tile was entered before automatically beginning a new test.

4.2 Test Samples
A RaCE
SM
DAQ test sample for EBRCSA testing is a paired set of talk-in and talk-out audio recordings.

4.2.1 Test Message
Test messages of five to eight seconds were used for coverage testing. Two hundred messages from lists included in Appendix E were selected for use during test. The selected list numbers are: 2, 4, 7, 8, 9, 10, 13, 16, 18, 19, 24, 28, 34, 38, 39, 46, 47, 50, 53, and 56. The randomly sorted messages were half and half male and female voices.

4.2.2 Valid Test Sample
A valid test sample is one in which all of the following conditions apply:
 RaCE
SM
detected entry into a previously untested tile and initiated the test sequence.  No RaCE
SM
hardware or software failures occurred during the test sequence.  No operator errors occurred during the test sequence.  No busy signal occurred during the test sequence.
 No errant GPS data 3 was received and used by RaCE
SM
during the test sequence.

If any of the above conditions were violated, the test sample is invalid and the tile is considered untested.

4.2.3 Inaccessible Tile
For tiles that were accessible but were missed for any reason, AECOM went back and attempted to test the tile.

2 A shape file is a popular geospatial vector data format for geographic information systems software. Shape files can be created and read by ESRI (and other) software. Shape files are actually several related files that convey geospatial data. 3 Obviously errant GPS data is a stated position more than 100 meters (~330 feet) from the actual position. This deviation is based on both the accuracy in the civilian GPS course / acquisition (C/A) code and the potential error in the underlying geographical map data in the vehicle.

AECOM Final Coverage Acceptance Test for
Contra Costa County West Simulcast Cell
18 4.2.4 Tile Retries
Tile retries were performed only where an invalid test sample was collected (see 4.2.2). In these cases, RaCE SM
operators
invalidated the data, and performed a re-test of the tile.

4.2.5 Failed Tile
A failed tile is any tile in which:
 A valid test sample was collected (see 4.2.2), and;
 Either the talk-out or the talk-in DA Q score is less than 3, or does not exist.

4.3 Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) Sample
RSSI data for the control channel was collected on a per tile basis, concurrent with the DAQ talk-out test.

The mobile test unit had two additional auxiliary receivers and antennas to perform RSSI measurements. During the talk-out test transmission, the RSSI receivers collect samples based on the automatic gain control line from the receiver. Multiple samples are collected in each tile, at an average rate of 57 samples per second. The median value of these samples is used, and then the average of the median value from each of the two receivers is presented as the RSSI value for that tile. The dynamic range of the ICOM receiver is -55 dBm to -120 dBm with a 1 dB resolution.

19 5 System Requirements and Impact

5.1 Testing System Requirements
During RaCE
SM
testing on a trunked system, interruption by other radio users on the same talk-group during RaCE SM
testing will
disrupt the test results. Therefore, we require a dedicated talk group for testing be programmed into the radios and into the system manager. For additional protection, this test talk group can be partitioned to a single, dedicated working channel. This will eliminate outside influences on the test data (e.g., system “busies”). If the RaCE SM
test is assigned channels randomly
(i.e., non-partitioned), the test results may not be as useful due to the different characteristics of the individual transmitters and antennas. Also, RaCE
SM
performs best when only the RaCE
SM
test talk group is using the partitioned channel, as this eliminates potential blocking or queuing by other users.

Under no circumstances can any work be done at any of the transmitter sites concurrent with the testing. If system failures occur, or if maintenance is required at the radio sites, the coverage testing will be stopped. Re-start of the test will then be coordinated with EBRCSA. It may be that some of the earlier test data was corrupted, and that some or all of the previous testing will have to be repeated.

All of these testing requirements were met, and we experienced none of the issues highlighted above. The test talk group was not partitioned to a specific channel because AECOM was the only user on the system during testing.

5.2 Testing an Operational System
When RaCE
SM
is used in a system without a dedicated channel available, the RaCE SM
units are subject to the same operational
limits as any other radios on the system. The effects on testing and operations can be significant. During this coverage acceptance testing, the dedicated talk-group on the trunked P25 system should not be accessible to any user, even for monitoring. Heavy use of the system by other users also poses the potential for queuing, which will corrupt the coverage test data. Under these circumstances, we will stop the test and coordinate the re-start with EBRCSA.

The system was not in operational use at the time of testing, and we experienced no busy signals.

5.3 Radio Requirements
EBRCSA supplied the radios used by RaCE
SM
. See the equipment list for the radios required. Each radio was programmed with talk-groups that were utilized for the testing and a simplex (talk-around) frequency for diagnostics and setup of the test equipment.

20 6 Test Procedures

6.1 Testing System Requirements
AECOM deployed one (1) drive test team for the testing. The test team consisted of one AECOM employee to operate the RaCE
SM
equipment. EBRCSA provided the driver and the vehicle. Testing was overseen by an AECOM Engineer in Lynchburg, VA.

AECOM tested from 8 am - 5pm Monday through Friday. Progress reports were provided to EBRCSA on the following day.

The Contra Costa County West Simulcast Cell was divided into two zones, one portable on street, and one medium building.

Each was tested at the appropriate attenuation level.

The test team tested every accessible tile.

6.3 DAQ Measurements/Voice Recording
The DAQ measurements were collected using one vehicle with RaCE SM
set up as discussed in Section 3-1. RaCE
SM
software
was configured to provide indications on the computer that both talk-in and talk-out test calls were collected in each tile. Tile samples not meeting this requirement were considered not tested by the software, and were retested as described in section

4.2.5. The RaCE
SM
operator continually monitored the GPS-indicated position on the laptops and validated this position by having the driver indicate road intersections. If GPS positions were found to be inaccurate, the tester invalidated the test, performed a manual position update, and then retested the grid.

6.4 Frequencies, Talk Groups, and Control Channels
The Control Channel was on 853.7500 MHz for the duration of the testing. AECOM’s testing was performed on the “AECOM” talk group. The radios were also programmed with “TAC – AECOM T/A” for simplex operation. The AECOM talk group was not limited to any particular working channels. The following frequencies were utilized by the system during testing:

21 6.5 Stationary Unit Locations
The stationary unit was located at the Courtyard Marriott Richmond. This location was selected because of its proximity to the Pearl Ridge Reservoir Site. The RaCE stationary unit was located in room 512, on the fifth floor. During setup, received signal strength of the control channel for the simulcast cell was measured between -56 and -62 dBm, with the received signal from the Pearl Ridge Reservoir site sufficiently stronger than the other sites to provide a capture effect.

6.7 Data Collection, Storage and Post-Processing
At the end of each test day, all RaCE
SM
test data was copied from the mobile and stationary laptops to an external hard drive.

Data also remained on the original laptop computer.

6.8 Additional Procedures
See APPENDIX A: RaCE
SM
PROCEDURES for additional test procedures.

6.9 Post Processing
AECOM listened to any test .wav file with a DAQ score of 3 or lower, and a sample of scores above 3. AECOM recommends that EBRCSA listen to any test .wav files that scored below a 3 DAQ. AECOM also recommends that EBRCSA samples 1% of the .wav files with a DAQ above 3.

6.10 Inaccessible Tiles
Certain tiles inside the test sectors 1a and 1b were inaccessible to vehicles, and were therefore not tested. These include some of the coastal areas, the area southwest of the San Pablo Canal, a large portion of the northern part of the test area, the foothills on the eastern end of the test area, and the Wildcat Canyon Regional Park.

Contra Costa County West Simulcast Cell
26 7 Results
Conformance testing relies on statistics over a large area, by measuring a statistically significant number of random test locations, uniformly distributed throughout the defined area. Tests are usually conducted throughout either a service area, which is the entire area where the radio system will be used, or a covered area, which is the area that is predicted to have coverage based on the design. For this test, DAQ and BER results pertaining to the covered area reliability are what determine whether the system passes the test. DAQ results pertaining to the service area reliability and RSSI results are provided for information only.

Reliability is defined as the percentage of locations to and from which radio communications meets or exceeds the desired CPC. For the covered area reliability test, the validated covered area reliability value in percent is calculated by dividing the number of valid test measurements within the covered area that that meet or exceed the required CPC by the total number of valid tests within the covered area. The validated service area reliability value in percent is calculated by dividing the number of valid test measurements within the service area that meet or exceed the required CPC by the total number of valid test measurements in the service area.

7.1 Test Results
From the specifications, the coverage guarantee for the system is a covered area reliability of 95% or higher. In order to meet this, 95% of tests must meet or exceed the Channel Performance Criteria (CPC) of DAQ 3 in both talk-in and talk-out directions. The covered area reliability is shown for both medium building attenuation (test sector 1b) and portable on street attenuation (test sector 1a).

Table 7-1 DAQ Test Results – Covered Area Reliability

Table 7-1 shows the results of the covered area reliability DAQ test. Tiles where a test was attempted but could not be completed due to inability to access the system from that location are included as tested tiles with a DAQ score of 0.

From these results, we see that Motorola has exceeded the specified coverage.

Additional test results are provided below for information only.

Figure 7-1 shows the frequency with which each DAQ score was observed over the entire service area. This chart only includes tests where the mobile unit was able to obtain a channel grant. 99.4% of the scores are DAQ 3.4 or above, and

91.9% of the scores are DAQ 4 or above.

7.3 RSSI Test Results
AECOM’s RSSI data was collected without any added attenuation, to provide measurements as close as possible to the ambient signal level present at that location. In analyzing the data, AECOM has used the following cutoffs to organize the RSSI data: successful mobile radio (using a mobile radio with a receive sensitivity of -119 dBm) communications will generally require a RSSI of at least -108.55 dBm, portable on street will generally require a RSSI of at least -99.18 dBm, portable in light building will generally require a RSSI of at least -93.18 dBm, and portable radio in medium building will generally require a RSSI of at least -84.18 dBm. All of these values are RSSI as measured by a mobile radio outdoors.

AECOM Final Coverage Acceptance Test for
Contra Costa County West Simulcast Cell
31 8 Conclusions
AECOM performed two-way DAQ testing in every accessible tile. We listened to all test files with a DAQ score of 3 or lower, and a sampling of the remaining messages. The test results show that the Contra Costa County West simulcast cell meets the coverage requirement of the specifications.

Based on the results AECOM observed, the radio coverage in the Contra Costa County West simulcast cell meets the EBRCSA specifications. Therefore, we recommend that the EBRCS Authority approves the coverage acceptance test of the Contra Costa County West simulcast cell.
