Annex 1 Damage and saturation to front end of the SRS deep-space earth station receivers The locations and characteristics of SRS deep-space receivers are described in Recommendation ITU-R SA.1014. The United States of Ameri

29、cas civil space agency, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), and the European Space Agency (ESA) have provided characteristics of saturation and potential damage levels to their deep-space earth station receivers. These levels are summarized in the Table A1-1 below. TABLE A1-1 S

31、NASAs SRS deep-space earth station receivers are designed to also support NASAs solar system radar operating in the 8 500-8 700 MHz band, which is allocated to the radiolocation service. SRS earth stations as described in Recommendation ITU-R SA.1014 are designed to also support SRS missions such as

32、 Lagrange missions and lunar missions in the 8 450-8 500 MHz band. These damage levels should not be exceeded at any time. The unwanted emission from the EESS (active) should be below the saturation level during the critical events of SRS deep-space missions. SRS earth stations that are not describe

33、d in Recommendation ITU-R SA.1014 typically use different RF front-end technologies. They are typically less susceptible to saturation and damages from the unwanted emissions of EESS (active). 4 Rec. ITU-R RS.2065-0 Annex 2 Mitigation techniques for reducing unwanted emissions in the SRS in the freq

34、uency bands 8 400-8 450 MHz and 8 450-8 500 MHz from the EESS (active) systems operating around 9 600 MHz This Annex presents the computations of the theoretical unwanted emissions of EESS (active) systems around 9 600 MHz using the parameters for SAR-1, SAR-2 and SAR-3 from Recommendation ITU-R RS.

35、2043. Several mitigation techniques to reduce the unwanted emissions of EESS (active) system in the 8 400-8 450 MHz SRS deep space band and in the 8 450-8 500 MHz SRS band are discussed. 1 Protection of SRS space-to-Earth links Recommendation ITU-R SA.1157 gives the protection criterion of deep-spac

36、e research earth stations as 221 dB(W/Hz) for the SRS frequency band 8 400-8 450 MHz. The calculation of non-line-of-sight interference due to trans-horizon propagation should be based on weather statistics that apply for 0.001% of the time. Recommendation ITU-R SA.1157 provides the protection crite

37、rion for receiver systems in SRS deep-space systems. Compliance to the protection criterion for these assets determines the mission success of SRS deep-space missions. Harmful interference during mission critical events, e.g. orbit insertions, planetary fly-bys, and entry-decent-and-landing (EDL) ph

38、ases, can cause potential loss of a spacecraft or the loss of irreplaceable data. There are also critical events such as one-time scientific observations where a spacecraft penetrates the atmosphere of a planet or a moon, or it impacts a moon, a planet, an asteroid, or a comet. The spacecraft may be

39、 destroyed in the process. The data transmitted during the approach or the moments before and during the impacts define the success of the missions. Therefore, the protection of SRS deep space spacecraft and earth stations during mission critical events, to the extent demanded by Recommendation ITU-

40、R SA.1157, is crucial for the success of SRS deep-space missions. In addition, spacecraft emergencies for deep space systems should be considered as critical events. Additionally, Recommendation ITU-R SA.609 gives the protection criterion of space research earth stations as 216 dB (W/Hz) for the SRS

41、 frequency band 8 450-8 500 MHz. The calculation of interference that may result from atmospheric and precipitation effects should be based on weather statistics for 0.1% of the time for unmanned missions such as Lagrange and lunar missions. 2 Characteristics of EESS (active) systems around 9 600 MH

The unwanted emissions from the SAR systems are computed based on theoretical roll-off of SAR signals. Higher unwanted emissions are possible if EESS (active) systems include components such as high-efficiency power amplifiers operating in saturation modes. Computation of unwanted emissions of the SAR systems using Annex 8 of Recommendation ITU-R SM.1541 results in higher wanted e
