NOTE 1 This Recommendation is not intended to be used to form the basis for future modifications to maximum unwanted emission levels for the band 1 559-1 610 MHz that are stated in the Annexes to Recommendations ITU-R M.1343-1 and ITU-R M.1480 for MSS MESs, and ITU-

28、R SM.1757 for UWB. The maximum unwanted emission levels for the band 1 559-1 610 MHz stated in Recommendations ITU-R M.1343-1 and ITU-R M.1480 have been developed pursuant to a specific interference scenario, and are not intended to be applied to any service other than MSS MESs operating in the 1-3

29、GHz range without further study. Levels given in Recommendation ITU-R SM.1757 are specific to ultra-wideband technology. NOTE 2 The 6 dB aeronautical radionavigation safety margin, as discussed in 3 of Annex 1, was developed for a specific aeronautical radionavigation application of the RNSS and ARN

30、S in the Rec. ITU-R M.1903 3 band 1 559-1 610 MHz, and was not intended to be applied to non-aeronautical applications. The level of the safety margin, if any, to be applied to non-aeronautical safety applications of RNSS is to be established on the basis of further study. Annex 1 Margin for safety

31、applications in the RNSS 1 Introduction There is a long history within ITU and ICAO of reserving a portion of the interference link budget for a margin in order to ensure that the safety aspects of the radionavigation service are protected. These margin values typically lie in the range of 6 to 10 d

32、B, or more. Furthermore, there is ample precedent for a safety margin for radionavigation safety applications in ITU-R, for example: “Regardless of the original intentions of radio spectrum planners, there can be no doubt that the pressure on the radio spectrum for additional allocations to the vari

33、ous radio communication services can result in aeronautical protection criteria being effectively regarded as non-aeronautical sharing criteria. As a consequence, a safety service must take considerable precautions to ensure that any radio service sharing the same radio band is constrained sufficien

34、tly to leave an adequate margin under all likely circumstances so that the aggregate harmful interference never exceeds the required protection criteria.”2Also, Recommendation ITU-R M.1318-1 contains, in its Annex, a model for the evaluation of interference to RNSS receivers from radio sources other

35、 than in the RNSS. That model includes the use of a factor called “protection margin (dB)”. Its description states that it is used “to ensure protection as provided by RR No. 4.10.” 2 Purpose of safety margin A safety margin (which may also be called a public safety factor), is critical for safety-o

36、f-life applications in order to account for risk of loss of life due to radio-frequency interference that is real but not quantifiable. To support safety-of-life applications, all interference sources must be accounted for. 3 Aeronautical radionavigation applications of safety margin 3.1 Aeronautica

37、l radionavigation safety margin background The utilization of safety margins in navigation systems is well established. ICAO specifies a safety margin for the microwave landing system (MLS) of 6 dB (Annex 10 to ICAO Convention: International Standards and Recommended practices Aeronautical Telecommu

38、nications, Vol. 1 Radio Navigation Aids (Attachment G, Table G-2). The instrument landing system (ILS) applies a safety margin of 8 dB (see Recommendation ITU-R SM.1009-1, Appendix 3 to Annex 2). In each case the margin is defined with respect to the navigation system carrier power. That is, to test

39、 system performance for these systems, the desired signal power is reduced from the nominal level by the safety margin, and then tested to determine whether the system provides the 2This text appeared in Annex 5 of Recommendation ITU-R M.1477 (Geneva, 2000), among other places. 4 Rec. ITU-R M.1903 r

40、equired performance in the presence of interference. In other words, the manufacturer must design the equipment to handle the highest anticipated interference level while receiving a desired signal level lower (by the safety margin) than would be otherwise received. With GNSS3this approach is not po

41、ssible, because reducing the carrier power by 6 dB or more below the designed power could result in satellites being dropped in the tracking algorithm of the receiver. This is because the received GNSS satellite power is relatively limited, and thus GNSS receivers operate over a small dynamic range.

42、 For GNSS receivers, the principal received signal quality measure is the C/N0,EFFratio, the ratio of the recovered carrier power, C, to the effective noise + interference power spectral density, N0,EFF= N0+ I0. GNSS receivers must be capable of operating near the minimum C/N0,EFFvalue, a region whe

43、re important performance parameters, such as detected word error rate or carrier phase error, rise rapidly for small reductions in C/N0,EFFdue, for example, to interference. 3.2 Safety margin for the GNSS in the band 1 559-1 610 MHz As with the MLS and ILS, the approach for the GNSS is to define a l

44、evel of non-aeronautical radio-frequency interference4(RFI) that the receiver must be able to accept and still meet performance specifications. For the GNSS, the receiver RFI test limit (i.e. the design threshold) exceeds the maximum allowable environmental aggregate interference level by a safety m

45、argin. Specifically, if the aggregate continuous interference test limit for GNSS is Jagg,max(dBW) and a safety margin, M (dB), is used, then the maximum safe environmental aggregate continuous RFI, Jsafe,max(dBW) is: Jsafe,max= Jagg,max M For the GNSS in the 1 559-1 610 MHz band, the necessary safe

46、ty margin, M (dB), is 6 dB. A safety margin of 5.6 dB was used in the development of the 70 dB(W/MHz) emission limit adopted in Recommendation ITU-R M.1343-1. However, for general application this margin is adjusted slightly to 6 dB, which brings it into the range of safety service margins which hav

47、e been adopted by ITU-R for other safety applications, as indicated in 3.1 above. For example, a Category I precision approach SBAS Type 1 air navigation receiver (see Table 2 of Annex 2) operating in the 1 575.42 12 MHz band is designed and tested to withstand a wideband aggregate interference thre

48、shold level of 140.5 dB(W/MHz) in the signal tracking mode. Applying the 6 dB safety margin, as indicated in the equation above, to the aggregate threshold results in the safe level of allowable received interference of 146.5 dB(W/MHz). An aeronautical safety margin of at least 6 dB is required to p

49、rotect the GNSS safety applications. Additional margins may be required, depending on: the effects of the statistics on all parameters used in interference analyses unless the worst-case conditions are assumed; and RFI sources that are not specifically included in the interference analysis but that may have a potential to contribute to the interference of GNSS. 3GNSS refers to Global Navigation Satellite System, a set of RNSS systems providing aeronautical radionavigation satellite signals as recognized by ICAO. 4Non-aeronautical interference refers to interference f
