13、strations as a guideline for: establishing conformance requirements for AES; facilitating AES operations. 1The characteristics of the typical aircraft earth stations need to fulfil the requirements described in this Recommendation and, further, need to be within the envelope of those initially publi

14、shed in the International Frequency Information Circular (BR IFIC) relating to the corresponding FSS network. In the case that the characteristics are outside of the envelope of those in the initial publication, the required coordination of such an aircraft earth station needs to be effected in acco

15、rdance with the current provisions of the Radio Regulations (RR) and a modified Rule of Procedure as contained in 2 of the Rules of Procedure relating to RR No. 11.32, as appropriate. Rec. ITU-R M.1643 3 Annex 1 Technical and operational requirements for AES of AMSS networks in the band 14-14.5 GHz

16、(Earth-to-space) Part A Essential requirements related to the protection of FSS networks 1 AMSS networks should be coordinated and operated in such a manner that the aggregate off-axis e.i.r.p. levels produced by all co-frequency AES within AMSS networks are no greater than the interference levels t

17、hat have been published and coordinated for the specific and/or typical earth station(s) pertaining to FSS networks where FSS transponders are used. 2 The design, coordination and operation of an AES should, at least, account for the following factors which could vary the aggregate off-axis e.i.r.p.

18、 levels generated by the AES: 2.1 mispointing of AES antennas. Where applicable, this includes, at least, effects caused by bias and latency of their pointing systems, tracking error of closed loop tracking systems, misalignment between transmit and receive apertures for systems that use separate ap

19、ertures, and misalignment between transmit and receive feeds for systems that use combined apertures; 2.2 variations in the antenna pattern of AES. Where applicable, this includes, at least, effects caused by manufacturing tolerances, ageing of the antenna and environmental effects. AMSS networks us

20、ing certain types of AES antennas, such as phased arrays, should account for variation in antenna pattern with scan angles (elevation and azimuth). Networks using phased arrays should also account for element phase error, amplitude error and failure rate; 2.3 variations in the transmit e.i.r.p. from

21、 AES. Where applicable, this includes, at least, effects caused by measurement error, control error and latency for closed loop power control systems. Network control and monitoring centres (NCMCs) that calculate the e.i.r.p. of AES based on the received signal need to take into account error source

22、s and latency in this calculation. NCMCs that calculate the e.i.r.p. of AES based on input power must account for measurement error and reporting latency. 3 AES that use closed loop tracking of the satellite signal need to employ an algorithm that is resistant to capturing and tracking adjacent sate

23、llite signals. AES must immediately inhibit transmission when they detect that unintended satellite tracking has happened or is about to happen. 4 AES should be subject to the monitoring and control by an NCMC or equivalent facility. AES must be able to receive at least enable transmission and disab

24、le transmission commands from the NCMC. AES must automatically cease transmissions immediately on receiving any 4 Rec. ITU-R M.1643 parameter change command, which may cause harmful interference during the change, until it receives an enable transmission command from its NCMC. In addition, it should

25、 be possible for the NCMC to monitor the operation of an AES to determine if it is malfunctioning. 5 AES need also to be self-monitoring and, should a fault which can cause harmful interference to FSS networks be detected, the AES must automatically mute its transmissions. Part B Essential requireme

26、nts related to the protection of the fixed service In the 14-14.5 GHz frequency band as used by fixed service networks, within line-of-sight of the territory of an administration where fixed service networks are operating in this band, the maximum pfd produced at the surface of the Earth by emission

27、s from a single AES, of an AMSS network should not exceed: 132 + 0.5 dB(W/(m2 MHz) for 40 112 dB(W/(m2 MHz) for 40 90 where is the angle of arrival of the radio-frequency wave (degrees above the horizontal). NOTE 1 The aforementioned limits relate to the pfd and angles of arrival that would be obtai

28、ned under free-space propagation conditions. NOTE 2 An e.i.r.p. mask can be derived from the aforementioned pfd mask by applying the method given in Annex 2 of this Recommendation. Simplification of the resulting e.i.r.p. mask could also be considered. Part C Essential requirements related to sharin

29、g with the RAS In order to protect the radio astronomy in the band 14.47-14.5 GHz, AMSS earth stations should comply with both following measures: AMSS channels in the 14.47-14.5 GHz band AMSS stations do not transmit in the 14.47-14.5 GHz band within line-of-sight of radio astronomy stations operat

30、ing within this band; or, if an AMSS operator intends to operate co-frequency within the visibility of the radio astronomy station, a specific agreement with the radio astronomy station will be needed to ensure that AMSS AES will meet the requirements of Recommendations ITU-R RA.769 and ITU-R RA.151

31、3 within the 14.47-14.5 GHz band during observations. Where practicable, this may include advance information to AMSS operators regarding observation schedules. AMSS channels in the 14-14.47 GHz band All AES transmitters on channels in the 14-14.47 GHz band within line-of-sight of radio astronomy st

32、ations during radio astronomy observations have emissions in the band 14.47-14.5 GHz such that they meet the levels and percentage of data loss given in Rec. ITU-R M.1643 5 Recommendations ITU-R RA.769 and ITU-R RA.1513. Results from studies show that the following AES pfd levels (dB(W/(m2 150 kHz)

33、in the band 14.47-14.5 GHz are sufficient, with some margin, to meet the radio astronomy pfd levels in Recommendation ITU-R RA.769 and the percentage of data loss given in Recommendation ITU-R RA.1513, i.e.: 190 + 0.5 dB(W/(m2 150 kHz) for 10 185 dB(W/(m2 150 kHz) for 10 90 where is the angle of arr

34、ival of the radio-frequency wave (degrees above the horizontal). Such AES pfd levels in the band 14.47-14.5 GHz may be achieved by the AMSS operators through a combination of reduced AES signal power, sharp filtering, maintaining adequate frequency separation, or better AES antenna performance. Part

35、 D Essential requirements related to sharing with the space research service Coordination agreements should be developed between AMSS and space research systems based on controlling the emissions levels of the AES in the frequency band used by the SRS systems, and, in severe cases, may require cessa

36、tion of AES emissions on frequencies used by the SRS system when operating in the vicinity of the space research earth station. Specifics of the agreements will vary based on the characteristics of the individual SRS sites and the AMSS networks. Annex 2 Derivation of a lower hemisphere e.i.r.p. mask

37、 from a pfd mask In testing AMSS equipment to determine if it meets a given pfd mask, such as the one in Annex 1, Part B, it may be useful to determine an equivalent e.i.r.p. mask that can be used for testing purposes. The pfd mask, pfd() where is the angle of arrival (elevation angle) at the Earths

38、 surface, can be used to mathematically determine an e.i.r.p. mask, e.i.r.p.(, H) where is the angle below the local horizontal plane and H is the altitude of the aircraft. This conversion proceeds in two steps. First, is converted to an equivalent angle of arrival, . Then the length of the propagat

39、ion path for angle of arrival is determined and used to calculate the spreading loss for the path and the resulting e.i.r.p. Step 1: Calculation of an angle of arrival in degrees, , from and H: )/)cos()arccos(eeRHR += 6 Rec. ITU-R M.1643 where: : angle of arrival Re:earth radius (6 378 km) H : altit

40、ude of the aircraft (km) : angle below horizontal. NOTE 1 If the argument of the arccos function is greater than 1, the propagation path in the direction of the angle does not intersect the Earth. In this case, which occurs for values of of about 3.5 or less, a value for does not exist and so there

41、is no defined value for the pfd mask. Step 2: Calculation of the e.i.r.p. value from the defined pfd(): 2/122)cos()(2)( += HRRHRRdeeee60)4(log10)(pfd),(e.i.r.p.210+= dH where: d : distance between the AES and the considered point on the Earths surface (km) pfd() : (dB(W/(m2 MHz) e.i.r.p. : (dB(W/MHz
