3.4 Launching a simulation

A simulation is now ready to be launched. It should be noted that prior to beginning the simulation, SEAMCAT checks the consistency and suitability of certain input parameters (see ANNEX 19:).

Since the default operating frequency of the Interfering link transmitter is 900 MHz and the unwanted emission mask is not within the range of the Victim link receiver, SEAMCAT automatically complains and displays a warning window.

Therefore, it’s better to select “No - Cancel simulation and let me correct errors” and define the operating frequency (1000 MHz) of the interfering link. These parameters do not affect the calculation of the dRSS. It is only to ensure that SEAMCAT does not experience any exceptions when running.
