User manual ICOM PS-65

[. . . ] For the signal is digital, no information is lost due to conversion and multiple repeater relays are possible in this system. The D-STAR system repeater can perform 3 relay functions as shown in the following figures. What can the D-STAR system do? 128kbps digital data and 4. 8kbps digital voice communication The D-STAR system provides not only digital voice (DV mode) communication but also digital data transmission (DD mode). It can exchange various data files such as graphics, images, etc, at 128kbps. Single repeater The D-STAR repeater operates similar to existing analog repeater. [. . . ] That is a simple relay of transmit and receive communication. In DV mode, cross band (144/440/1200MHz) operation is also possible. Single repeater Station A (PS-65) 1. 2 GHz 144MHz or 440MHz (DV mode) Station D (ID-800H) 1. 2GHz (DD & DV) 144MHz or 440MHz (DV mode) Your voice and data can reach further than ever Multiple repeater links by radio and the Internet provide long distance communication to virtually anywhere. Digital voice and data repeater Station B (PS-65) Station C (IC-91AD) Microwave link When D-STAR repeaters are connected via 10GHz microwave, the D-STAR system transfers received data to another repeater site. You can also make a CQ call to a specified repeater area. Microwave link Repeater site 1 1. 2G Hz 10G Hz r elay Internet application available The D-STAR system uses the TCP/IP protocol, so when connected with a PC, web, e-mail and other Internet applications are available. Repeater site 2 10G Hz r elay Wireless Internet Access No matter where you travel within the DSTAR network, you can access the web, e-mail, text messages and multimedia messages. 1. 2 GH z Station E Station A Digital voice/data repeater and 10GHz microwave link Independent network In DD mode, PS-65 can transfer data directly with another PS-65 without the use of a repeater. This is useful for establishing a simple network where a D-STAR repeater does not exist or D-STAR services are not required. Internet gateway relay When D-STAR repeaters are connected with the Internet gateway, the D-STAR system relays the received data over the Internet. MiINTERNET crowave links and Internet gateways can be combined even during one contact. So your message will get through virtually to anywhere in the D-STAR system.
