ITU-R F.1608 1 RECOMMENDATION ITU-R F.1608 Frequency sharing between systems in the fixed service using high altitude platform stations and conventional systems in the fixed service in the bands 47.2-47.5 and 47.9-48.2 GHz (Question ITU-R 212/9) (2003) The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, cons

9、08 2 that in analysing the sharing possibilities between systems in the fixed service using HAPS and other conventional systems in the fixed service, such as is done in Annex 2, the methodology described in Annex 1 may be used; 3 that in those areas where a ubiquitous HAPS service is envisioned, suc

10、h as the urban and suburban coverage areas, co-area frequency sharing with conventional fixed service systems will be difficult. For the typical HAPS system described in Recommendation ITU-R F.1500, with symmetric service areas around the HAPS nadir point, the limit of ubiquitous service is likely t

11、o be at the outer edge of the suburban coverage area, at about 80 km from nadir; 4 that in those areas where a ubiquitous HAPS service is not envisioned, such as the rural coverage area, sharing with other fixed service systems could be feasible provided there is sufficient angular discrimination be

Such angular discrimination may only be possible if the conventional fixed service systems are located outside the visible range of the HAPS platform; 5 that in those areas where the HAPS coverage is lim

14、cenarios and mitigation techniques that could facilitate frequency sharing. NOTE 1 It is recognized that systems utilizing HAPS have a potential applicability to various services such as mobile and broadcasting services. This Recommendation considers the use of HAPS in the fixed service. Annex 1 The

15、 methodology to be used in the analysis of frequency sharing between systems in the fixed service using HAPS and conventional fixed service systems 1 Introduction This Annex provides the basis for methodology for the investigation of the interference scenarios and sharing possibilities between fixed

16、 service systems using HAPS and conventional fixed service systems. To be specific, the frequency bands identified for the fixed service systems using HAPS are 47.2-47.5 GHz and 47.9-48.2 GHz. These bands are part of the band 47.2-50.2 GHz which is also allocated to the fixed-satellite (Earth-to-spa

17、ce) and mobile services. There are some fixed service applications in the 47.2-47.5 GHz and 47.9-48.2 GHz bands; Recommendation ITU-R F.758 discusses the considerations necessary in the development of sharing criteria. The bands are not currently in use by the mobile service and no parameters are Re

18、c. ITU-R F.1608 3 available on which to base typical interference analysis. It should be noted, however, that the high density of small user terminals envisaged for use by the HAPS-based network (HAPN) is expected to render sharing with mobile service systems very difficult. 2 Technical characterist

19、ics The technical characteristics for a typical HAPN operating in the bands 47.2-47.5 GHz and 47.9-48.2 GHz are given in Recommendation ITU-R F.1500. This text gives information on both the technical parameters of the equipment and on the gains and directivity of antennas mounted on a HAPS. Technica

20、l characteristics for terrestrial fixed service systems operating in the band 47.2-50.2 GHz are given in Recommendation ITU-R F.758. Reference antenna patterns are given in Recommendation ITU-R F.699. The propagation characteristics for free space path loss, atmospheric gaseous absorption, and hydro

21、meteor attenuation and scattering are given in various Recommendations in the ITU-R P-Series. 3 Sharing study methodology Recommendation ITU-R F.1500 indicates that a typical HAPN may offer up to 2 100 cells, with a 7-times frequency reuse factor, within a service diameter of 468 km. In addition the

22、re may be up to 40 gateway stations within a diameter of 181 km. Dependent on the bandwidth assigned to an individual HAPN, there may be up to 330 000 simultaneous user terminals in operation from a subscriber base of more than 5 million. Each of these user terminals will have an antenna directed to

23、wards the HAPS. The 2 100 beams from the HAPS will extend across the whole of the coverage area, with frequency reuse. Conventional fixed service usage of the band may be either for wide bandwidth links between well-defined fixed locations, or for high-density fixed links where the location and orie

24、ntation of each link may not be specified in advance. For both of these types of conventional application the link length will be limited by both terrain and screening and by atmospheric and hydrometeor absorption. Due to the multiplicity of potential links, the methodology for undertaking sharing s

25、tudies will have to be based on determining the potential interference between a pair of stations, including the appropriate antenna directivity characteristics, and calculating for many such cases using a random selection of station locations within the coverage areas and subject to appropriate fre

26、quency reuse, bandwidth, etc. considerations. Some preliminary studies of this kind have been undertaken, with 720 million cases in the simulations. These have indicated that co-channel sharing between terrestrial fixed stations and HAPN user terminals will be very difficult, and that necessary geog

27、raphical separation between a HAPN coverage and a conventional fixed service station depends on the gain, and thus on the orientation of the fixed link. For such adjacent area coverages simulation using unobstructed plane Earth paths will not be adequate and the method should include Earth curvature

28、 and the probability of screening from terrain or surface features. 4 Rec. ITU-R F.1608 Similarly for interference simulation for the HAPS terminals, adjacent area sharing depends on the location and direction of the fixed links, but in this case there is a smaller probability of diffraction screeni

29、ng due to the oblique paths.

ITU-R F.1608 7 interference from HAPS user terminals into conventional systems in the fixed service. The analysis is based on single and multiple interference

38、sources. A separation distance is determined between the HAPS user terminals and conventional systems in the fixed service such that the relevant interference criterion is not exceeded. The results of previous studies indicate that co-area frequency sharing will be difficult especially in areas wher

39、e a ubiquitous HAPS service is envisioned and is only likely to be possible in special situations where carefully selected antenna locations and path geometries are favourable. Hence, the separation distances in this study are calculated on the basis that the conventional systems in the fixed servic

40、e are located outside the HAPS coverage area. 3.1.1 Interference analysis based on a single interference source Table 6 gives the calculated values of the separation distance for the single interference analysis. It is assumed that the HAPS user terminal and the conventional systems in the fixed ser

41、vice are located at a height of 10 m. TABLE 6 Separation distances for interference between HAPS user terminals and conventional fixed service systems 3.1.2 Interference analysis based on multiple sources The multiple interference analysis is based on a Monte-Carlo approach, taking actual United Kin

42、gdom terrain data into account. The aggregate interference at the receiver was calculated for each of 1 000 000 trials, where each trial corresponds to a random distribution of interfering transmitters. The path loss from each transmitter to the receiver was calculated using Recommendation ITU-R P.4

43、52. A cumulative distribution function (CDF) of interference at the receiver was then generated. This CDF does not correspond to the time for which interference may be experienced, but rather to the likelihood, given the random location of terminals. 3.1.3 Interference from conventional systems in t
