10、ITU-R studies. Also, the gain data for particular antennas are used in the refinement of existing reference patterns and/or the development of new reference patterns. Annex 1 to this Recommendation details a format in which gain data on specific FSS and BSS earth station antennas may be submitted by

11、 administrations in electronic form, and includes examples. Annex 2 includes a format for the capture of measured gain data of earth station antennas when only elevation and azimuth data is available.
