INFORMATION

OVERALLDESCRIPTION

The SEA 1612C is a fully automatic

antenna

tuning unit,

designedfor the MF-HFspectrum

and compatible

with a wide

variety of antenna systems. This product features an

advanced microprocessor-based

tuning algorithrn which

allows it to tune up on normal voice signals from the

associated transmitter

and also includes a "learning"

algorithm

which allows the controlcomputerto remember

which network

constants

are required

for a given operating

frequency. The memoryfeature

permits

the antennatuner,

once the "learning"

operation

is completed,to retune

a given

frequencyin approximately

20 milliseconds. This is less

than the time required

to say "hello". Antenna tuner

operation

is completely

automatic

and requiresno operator

intervention. lf the antennasystem

is altered

or replaced,

the tuner will automatically

"relearn"

the requirednetworks.

During the learning

period,

operation

is somewhat

slower

and, depending on the particular frequency/antenna

combination,

up to 5 seconds

may be requiredto achieve

matched

condition. When the antenna

has been properly

malched,

the tunersignalsthiscondition

by pulling

a control

line low. The controlsignalmay be used to operate

an "all

tuned" indicator

at the operators'

T-Fl position. Such an

indicator

is provided

in the SEA 222, SEA 322 and SEA 225

radiotelephones.

TheSEA1612C

alsoincludes

a "DEMAND

TUNE"function

and

'TUNE

LOCKOUT"

capability.

The "DEMAND

TUNE"

function

allowsthe user to forcethe

antenna tuner to retune on demand. This permits

"overwriting"

previously

stored tuneup information

when

desired.

The'TUNE LOCKOUT"

feature

is useful

when

two or more

transmitters

are co-located,

or when it is desirable

inhibitthe

AUTO

TUNE

function

foranyreason.

1-1

E.G.:when twoantennas

arein close

proximity,

it is possible

thattransmitting

on oneantenna

may

cause

considerable

to be coupled

into

theadjacent

antenna.

This

can

cause

the

tuner

to reset,

disturbing

the operation

of the radiotelephone.

such

cases,

the

"TUNE

LocKour'' feature

ofthesEA 1612c

can

be used

to prevent

the

SEA

1612C

from

entering

thetune

mode until the radiotelephone

it is associated

with is

actually

transmitting.

,2 ELECTRICAL

CONFIGURATION

The sEA 1612c matches

the compleximpedance

of the

antennasystem

to a nominal

50 ohms

by-'selecting."the:..,proper

network

from

a possible

combination

of 64 values

of input

32 values

of output

c and

s1z values

of series

L. Network

configuration

is automatically

determinedduring

the tune

cycleand may

be either

a Pl network

or either

of two types

of L network. wheneverpossible,

the L network

will be

selectedf

or maximum

eff

iciency. Tuneup is entirery

automatic

andmay

be accomplished

on voice

signals,

making

it unnecessary

to provide

a "low power

tune"modein the

trans

mitter.
