10-2.4.7 Transmission system bandwidth availability.
10-2.5
Coordination of DTM transmission lines. For existing and new DTM
transmission lines, coordinate with the base communications officer (information
technology).
10-2.5.1 Approval of radio frequency emitters by local jurisdiction or Host nations must
be considered early in the project.
10-2.6
Dispatch Center. Identification of the location of the central monitoring facility
(space) for the ESS should be made. If sufficient space does not exist for the current
project, the Dispatch Center needs to be identified and a scheme for central monitoring
made (i.e. a new command center space is required). A determination of Dispatch
Center connectivity (DTM) requirements needs to be made. Connectivity requirements
refers to bandwidth and pathway considerations. Additionally, distance issues and
availability of points of connection needs to be reviewed. There will be additional
project cost if new pathways and connections are required.
10-2.7
Multi-Organizational Interfaces. Meetings with end users and facility
security specialists need to be held. Additionally, determine facility and security forces
operational requirements.
10-2.8
Space Planning. The ESS designer must interact early to reserve space
requirements in a new building (square footage area) fore ESS components such as
equipment racks, consoles, operator stations, and administrative stations.

INITIAL DRAWING PREPARATION
10-3.1
A good start for drawing production is to begin with the drawings identified in
Figure 10-1.
10-3.2
Cable Schedule. For identifying different cable types required for a project, a
good approach is to use a cable schedule and show the conductor count and cable
legend on riser diagrams. A sample is shown in Figure 10-2.
10-3.3
Functional Matrix. A document defining the functionality to the system is a
useful tool similar to the one shown in Figure 10-3.
10-4
BASIS OF DESIGN
10-4.1
Some projects require a Basis of Design. Typically a Basis of Design is done
as a report and includes: a functional description of systems, a narrative of systems
requirements, some base drawings such as the functional matrix, and documentation of
factors effecting the ultimate design and functionality of a system.
