2、 is capable of supporting propagation in the VHF (30-300 MHz) band under some conditions, during relatively short periods of time, and in certain areas of the world; b) consideration when planning radio systems which share frequencies; that propagation mechanisms which exist for relatively short per

3、iods of time should be taken into 4 that frequency sharing is important in the efficient use of the radio spectrum, recommends that the following information be taken into account when planning radio systems which make use of frequency sharing in the VHF (30-300 MHz) band. 1. Introduction Radio prop

4、agation at VHF is mainly controlled by physical objects, such as terrain and ground cwer (clutter), and tropospheric factors, principally refraction. However, ionospheric propagation over long distances at VHF can take place with relatively small losses. Such propagation events may be significant in

5、 causing interference at VHF, particularly for systems requiring high reliability. 2. Summary of potential ionospheric interference mechanisms Table 1 provides a summary of ionospheric propagation mechanisms which may be significant causes of interference at VHF. Further information on the more impo

6、rtant mechanisms is given in the following sections. 3. Normal F-region propagation Near the peak of the solar cycle long-distance propagation via the F2 layer can occur for a significant fraction of the time at frequencies above 30 MHz. This effect extends to 70 MHz at low latitudes. Figures i. 7 a

7、nd 3 show values of the MUF for a path length of 4000 km exceeded for 1% of hours for three seasons at sunspot maximum. 4. Trans-equatorial propagation (TEP) Strong transmission can occur, particularly during high sunspot years, over long North-South paths spanniny the geomagnetic equator. There app

8、ear to be two types of trans-equatorial propagation characterized by the times of peak OccurTence, fading characteristics and modes of propagation.

14、s an intensification in ionization in the form of a horizontal sheet of about 1 km average thickness and a horizontal dimension of the order of 100 km. The height is commonly 100 to 120 km. Such sporadic-E layers can cause abnormal VHF propagation for periods lasting for several hours. The occurrenc

15、e of sporadic-E propagation decreases with increasing frequency, but can be a sipificatit cause of interference at frequencies up to about 135 MHz. Recommendation 534 provides a method for calculating sporadic-E field strengths and probability of occurrence. 6. Meteor-trail ionization Scattering fro

16、m ionization due to meteor-trails can produce VHF interference over ranyes up to approximately 2000 km. Although individual meteor trails remain effective for periods measured in seconds. meteor bursts can support continuous or near-continuous propagation for much longer periods of time. The effect

17、of meteor trails on VHF propagation shows spatial, diurnal and seasonal variations. Further information may be found in Recommendation 843.

Auroral lonlzatlon Field-aligned irregularities in thc auroral zones may appear during magnetically disturbed periods. Such ionization can produce significant reflections causing propagation which is normally off the great-circle path. This may cause interference at VHF frequencies, mainly in mid to high geomagnetic latitudes.
