1、 Rec. ITU-R P.620-6 1 RECOMMENDATION ITU-R P.620-6*Propagation data required for the evaluation of coordination distances in the frequency range 100 MHz to 105 GHz (Question ITU-R 208/3) (1986-1992-1995-1997-1999-2003-2005) The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, considering a) that the coordination ar

2、ea is that area, around an earth station, so defined that any interference between the earth station in question and terrestrial stations outside this area may be considered as negligible; b) that the determination of the coordination area should be based on the best propagation data available and s

3、hould be adequately conservative; c) that the World Radiocommunication Conference (Istanbul, 2000) (WRC-2000) approved a revision of Appendix 7 of the Radio Regulations (subsequently modified by WRC-03) based on material in Recommendation ITU-R SM.1448 which in turn is based on material in Recommend

4、ation ITU-R P.620 covering the frequency range 100 MHz to 105 GHz; d) that Resolution 74 (WRC-03) describes a process to keep the technical bases of Appendix 7 current, recommends 1 that, for the determination of the coordination area with respect to frequencies above 100 MHz, administrations use th

5、e propagation calculation methods set out in Annex 1. Annex 1 1 Introduction This Annex provides propagation data for use in the calculation of a coordination area and sets out a straightforward method for the assessment of the propagation factors concerned in the determination of coordination dista

6、nces. The coordination area represents the area outside of which interference between an earth station and terrestrial stations (or between bidirectionally operating earth stations), operating within the conservative assumptions given elsewhere, may be considered negligible. In the remainder of this

7、 Recommendation the words terrestrial stations may also represent bidirectionally operating earth stations. The determination of coordination distance therefore necessitates the comparison of the required transmission loss (minimum permissible basic transmission loss, Lb( p) (dB), not exceeded for a

8、 given annual percentage time p), based on system and interference model considerations, with the transmission loss contributed by the propagation medium. The required coordination distance is that at which these two losses become equal. *This Recommendation should be brought to the attention of Rad

9、iocommunication Study Group 1. 2 Rec. ITU-R P.620-6 Various propagation models are provided to cover different frequency ranges and to take account of different propagation mechanisms. These models predict propagation loss as a function of distance. Coordination distances are determined by calculati

10、ng propagation loss iteratively with distance until either the required transmission loss is achieved or a limiting distance is reached. It is important to note that the coordination area does not represent a zone within which the sharing of frequencies between the earth station and the terrestrial

11、station is excluded. Such sharing is often possible, and the coordination area serves to assist this arrangement by indicating where the potential for interference between the earth station and any terrestrial stations needs to be evaluated using a more detailed analysis based on the relevant ITU-R

12、Recommendations. In addition to providing the method of calculation for the coordination contour, this Recommendation also provides information that enables the preparation of auxiliary contours to assist in the rapid elimination of the majority of potential interference cases during the subsequent

13、coordination analysis for terrestrial stations falling within the coordination contour. 2 Structure of the Recommendation The structure of the Recommendation is as follows: Annex 1: The overall methodology for determining the coordination area Appendix 1 to Annex 1: The definition of the input param

14、eters Appendices 2 and 3 to Annex 1: The equations required to calculate the coordination contours Appendix 4 to Annex 1: A reference radiation pattern for line-of-sight radio-relay system antennas Appendix 5 to Annex 1: The definition of all parameters. 3 General considerations 3.1 Assumptions The

15、determination of coordination distance propagation characteristics for an earth station is based on the assumption that: the locations of terrestrial stations with which coordination is to be sought are not known; in the interference path geometry, only information pertaining to the earth station is

16、 available; for the geometry over the remainder of the interference path, cautious limiting assumptions must be made as shown in the following text. In this Annex propagation phenomena are classified into two modes as follows: mode (1): propagation phenomena in clear air: affected by the presence of

17、 the Earths surface (diffraction, refraction, ducting and layer reflection/refraction), and via tropospheric scatter. These phenomena are confined to propagation along the great-circle path; mode (2): hydrometeor scatter, which is not limited to the great-circle path, but is, as dealt with in this A

18、nnex, limited to earth stations operating with geostationary satellites. Rec. ITU-R P.620-6 3 For each azimuth from the earth station, and for each of the above two modes of propagation, it is necessary to determine a distance which gives a propagation loss equal to the required minimum permissible

19、basic transmission loss. This distance (coordination distance) will be the greater of the two distances found. The iteration method can always use a uniform step size, 1 km being recommended. In the case of mode (1) the functions defining propagation loss are monotonic with distance and, if preferre

20、d, a more efficient iteration procedure may be used. 3.2 Overview of propagation models For the determination of coordination distances for propagation mode (1), the applicable frequency range has been divided into three parts: for VHF/UHF frequencies between 100 MHz and 790 MHz the model is based o

21、n an empirical fit to measured data; from 790 MHz to 60 GHz a propagation model taking account of tropospheric scatter, ducting and layer reflection/refraction is used; from 60 GHz to 105 GHz a millimetric model, based upon free-space loss and a conservative estimate of gaseous absorption, plus an a

22、llowance for signal enhancements at small time percentages, is used. The parameter input ranges for each of the propagation mode (1) model mechanisms are in general different. For the determination of coordination distances for propagation mode (2), isotropic scattering from hydrometeors in the comm

23、on volume formed by the main beams of the potentially interfering stations is modelled. For the purposes of frequency coordination at frequencies below 1 GHz and above 40.5 GHz interference produced by hydrometeor scatter can be ignored. Below 1 GHz the level of the scattered signal is very low and

24、above 40.5 GHz, although significant scattering occurs, the scattered signal is then highly attenuated on the path from the scatter volume to the terrestrial station. For mode (1) the distance is incremented from a specified minimum which varies according to propagation factors relevant to each freq

25、uency range. For mode (2) distance is decremented from a maximum given in Table 2. For auxiliary mode (2), distance is decremented from the main mode (2) coordination distance for the same azimuth. The loss due to shielding by terrain around an earth station should be calculated by the method descri

26、bed in 1 of Appendix 2 according to the horizon elevation angles along different radials from the earth station. For all frequencies between 100 MHz and 105 GHz this additional loss should be taken into account. 4 Radio-climatic information 4.1 Radio-climatic data For the calculation of the coordina

27、tion distance for propagation mode (1), the world has been classified in terms of radio-climatic zones (see 4.2) and a radiometeorological parameter, p, which reflects the relative incidence of clear-air anomalous propagation conditions. 4 Rec.

This can be calculated using: 27.3220e6.62330 +=N (3) 4.2 Radio-climatic zones In the calculation of coordination distance for propagation mode (1), the world is divided into four basic radio-climatic zones. These zones are defined as follows: Zone A

30、1: coastal land and shore areas, i.e. land adjacent to a Zone B or Zone C area (see below), up to an altitude of 100 m relative to mean sea or water level, but limited to a maximum distance of 50 km from the nearest Zone B or Zone C area as the case may be; in the absence of precise information on t

31、he 100 m contour, an approximation (e.g. 300 feet) may be used; Zone A2: all land, other than coastal land and shore defined as Zone A1 above; Zone B: cold seas, oceans and large bodies of inland water situated at latitudes above 30, with the exception of the Mediterranean and the Black Sea; Zone C:

32、 warm seas, oceans and large bodies of inland water situated at latitudes below 30, as well as the Mediterranean and the Black Sea. The following zone distance parameters are required in the various frequency models: dlm(km): longest continuous inland distance, Zone A2, within the current path dista

33、nce; dtm(km): longest continuous land (i.e. inland + coastal) distance, Zone A1 + Zone A2 within the current path distance. Where necessary, these distances must be re-evaluated for each total path distance within the iteration loops of the propagation models. Rec. ITU-R P.620-6 5 Large bodies of in

34、land water A large body of inland water, to be considered as lying in Zone B or Zone C as appropriate, is defined for the administrative purpose of coordination as one having an area of at least 7 800 km2, but excluding the area of rivers. Islands within such bodies of water are to be included as wa

35、ter within the calculation of this area if they have elevations lower than 100 m above the mean water level for more than 90% of their area. Islands that do not meet these criteria should be classified as land for the purposes of the water area calculation. Large inland lake or wetland areas Large i

36、nland areas of greater than 7 800 km2which contain many small lakes or a river network should be declared as coastal Zone A1 by administrations if the area comprises more than 50% water, and more than 90% of the land is less than 100 m above the mean water level. Climatic regions pertaining to Zone

37、A1, large inland bodies of water and large inland lake and wetland regions are difficult to determine unambiguously. Therefore administrations are invited to register with the ITU Radiocommunication Bureau (BR) those regions within their territorial boundaries that they wish identified as belonging

38、to one of these categories. In the absence of registered information to the contrary, all land areas will be considered to pertain to climate Zone A2. 4.3 Use of radio-climatic information from other Recommendations In certain sections for both mode (1) and mode (2) calculations, reference is made t

39、o radio-climatic information obtained from other ITU-R Recommendations. These are: a) Recommendation ITU-R P.836 for water vapour density; b) Recommendation ITU-R P.837 for rain rate; c) Recommendation ITU-R P.839 for rain height. These Recommendations are referenced where necessary to obtain a radi

40、o-climatic parameter for a particular location defined by longitude and latitude. In other parts of the mode (1) and mode (2) calculations constant values of some radio-climatic parameters are used. In these cases no reference is needed to the other Recommendations. 5 Distance limits 5.1 Minimum dis

41、tance limits The coordination distance in any given direction is determined by a number of factors set out above and, based on propagation factors alone, the distances could extend from relatively close-in to the earth station to many hundreds of kilometres. However, for practical reasons and also t

42、o take account of assumptions which have to be made about the radio path, it is necessary to set lower limits to coordination distances (dmin), calculated as follows: As a preliminary first step, calculate the minimum coordination distance as a function of frequency, f (GHz), up to 40 GHz, using: 2)

ITU-R P.620-6 Then calculate the minimum coordination distance at any frequency in the range 100 MHz to 105 GHz using: =GHz 60forkm50log1080GHz 60forkm200111fpfdmax)b6()a6(The maximum calculation distance limits for propagation mode (2) (dmax2) are given in Table 2. 5.3

44、 Use of distance limits for iterative calculations For mode (1) calculations, distance is incremented from the minimum distance limit and never continues beyond the maximum distance limit. For mode (2) calculations, distance is decremented from the maximum distance limit (or from the main contour in

45、 the case of auxiliary mode (2), and never continues to distances less than the minimum. 6 Determination of the coordination distance for propagation mode (1) Great circle propagation mechanisms 6.1 Coordination distances based on worst-month time percentages The calculation of coordination distance

46、 is based on a level of interference which must not be exceeded for more than a specified average annual time percentage, p1. For cases where the coordination needs to be based on a worst-month time percentage, pw1, the equivalent annual time percentage, p1, required by the method can be determined

If necessary the value of p1must be limited such that 12p1 pw1. 6.2 Calculation of the coordinati

48、on distance for propagation mode (1) The following methods should be used to determine the coordination distances for propagation mode (1): for frequencies between 100 MHz and 790 MHz the method described in 2 of Appendix 2; for frequencies between 790 MHz and 60 GHz the method described in 3 of App

49、endix 2; for frequencies between 60 GHz and 105 GHz the method described in 4 of Appendix 2. 7 Determination of the coordination distance for propagation mode (2) Scattering from hydrometeors 7.1 General The determination of the coordination contour for scattering from hydrometeors (e.g. rain scatter) is predicted on a path geometry which is substantially different from that of the great-circle propagation mechanisms. As a first approximation, energy i
