INTRODUCTION Microwave technology is vastly used today especially in broadcast and telecommunications as relays and satellite. A microwave system is widely used for its practicality in terms of economic costs, flexibility, and reliability. It is a form of electromagnetic radiation with a frequency ranges from 300MHz to 300GHz. Due to the high frequency, more information can be carried making it ideal for high data rate applications. In addition, this high frequency also limits microwave transmission to a line of sight between the transmitter and receiver. It is not able to penetrate the earth’s surface requiring the placement of repeaters for long ranges. Good microwave transmission engineering should be done in order to meet requirements of carrying information reliably from one point to another. Effort should be made in design that involves data gathering of site data such as terrain, weather, and elevation. These will be the primary deciding factors to be considered to make decisions in others such as equipment and antenna. CONCLUSION There are numerous factors that must be considered when designing a microwave system. First of all, you must meet the design requirements such as traffic capacity, frequency, reliability, and location. Once the primary requirements have been considered, additional requirements for transmitter site and geographical path of the microwave signal should be surveyed for suitability. The equipment will have to be chosen to meet the requirements. All of these can be supported by design computations such as losses, gain, signal levels, and reflection. The designed microwave transmission system is capable of carrying at least the requirement of 1,200 voice channels with room to spare. In addition, the system reliability has exceeded the minimum requirements of 99.99% this further reducing system downtime. The most important in designing this microwave system is being able to correctly survey the path taken of the microwave as it will dictate the items needed to build the system.
