    Vector Hugo
    The document describes the design specifications for a point-to-point microwave communication link between a transmitter, repeater, and receiver. It includes tables with location coordinates, tower heights, path distances, and fade margin calculations. The fade margins were 53.72dB for the transmitter to repeater link and 51.43dB for the repeater to receiver link, resulting in a system reliability of 99.9988%, meeting industry standards.

    V. INTERPRETATION OF DATA RESULTS
    The factors that could affect the point to point microwave system are site
    selection, antenna height, antenna type, tower type, site survey, repeater, and
    waveguide and transmission line.
    The strategic location of the transmitter is on (14°52'23.54"N,
    120°31'27.50"E) Prado Siongco Lubao, Pampanga while the receiver is on
    (14°38'49.37"N, 120°29'57.32"E) Dangcol Balanga, Bataan. Since there is no line-
    of-sight between the transmitter and receiver, a repeater located at Capitangan
    Abucay, Bataan (14°41'24.76"N, 120°28'56.21"E) was employed.
    The measured antenna height considering the earth bulge, land elevation,
    height of the obstructions and Fresnel clearance was 20m for the repeater and
    transmitter and 30m for the receiver.
    For the system reliability, the percentage of time a system or link meets
    performance requirements, we get a 99.9988% which is a good value. The overall
    system reliability of the designed point - to - point microwave communication link
    is based from the computed result was 99.9988% which meet the industry
    standard of 99.999% availability (about 300 seconds outage a year) to 99.9996%
    (about 125seconds outage a year).
