Annex Analysis of interfer

19、ence susceptibility of data relay satellite links 1 Introduction Much of the spectrum suitable for space research is also allocated to one or more other services and consequently frequency sharing between the services is required. This Recommendation discusses factors which affect the susceptibility

20、 to interference of links towards geostationary space stations operating as data relay satellites from low-orbiting spacecraft in the space research, space operations and EES services and from earth stations operating both in these same services or in the FSS. It specifies appropriate protection cri

21、teria for these services in the frequency bands from 2 up to 30 GHz. The protection criteria are for use in coordination and interference analyses when actual system data are unavailable. Rec. ITU-R SA.1155-2 3 2 General considerations Space research, space operations and Earth exploration systems i

22、n the near-Earth region have always been reliant on regular, interference-free two-way communications between spacecraft and control centres and other installations on the Earth. The evolution and expansion of these activities has become dependent on data relay satellites, described in Recommendatio

23、n ITU-R SA.1414. These operations are dependent on space-to-space links, which are more difficult to design and implement than the space-to-Earth links because both the transmitting system and the receiving system are subject to the mass and power limitations, and in most cases also to remote-contro

24、l and non-maintainability constraints, of space-borne systems. The trend is for systems of these types to use bandwidth-efficient modulation schemes, such as 2-PSK and 4-PSK, supplemented by forward-error-correction coding techniques, such as convolutional coding and block coding, both to increase t

25、he signal quality and to reduce the necessary signal power. In some systems, spread-spectrum modulation techniques are used to reduce the power density of the signal and pseudo-random sequence modulation techniques (similar or identical to the spread-spectrum modulation techniques) are used for rang

26、e measurements to determine the location of spacecraft. Phase-locked loop circuitry is also used during search, acquisition and tracking sequences. 3 Protection criteria In space-to-Earth and Earth-to-space links there is an incentive to minimize link margins in order to save mass and power, to redu

27、ce interference and in the interests of economy. In space-to-space links this incentive is re-doubled as both ends of the link are space-borne. Typical overall link design margins, which consider in the case of data relay satellites the space-to-space link in tandem with the space-to-Earth or Earth-

28、to-space link (sometimes referred to as the feeder link), are generally around 2-4 dB, but in some cases may be on the order of 1 dB after making allowance for any necessary margins to offset the effect of weather on the feeder link. The link design margin for the space-to-space link is often the li

29、miting factor, due to the extreme constraints of launching both transmitting and receiving systems into space in contrast to the possibility of enlarging the antenna of a ground receiving station. Considering these low design margins, levels of interference causing reduction of link margin by as lit

30、tle as 0.2 dB could be harmful to space-to-space links. However, in most cases, particularly at higher frequencies, these links will not be permanently affected by a single source of interference from the ground, as the link geometry is constantly changing due to the movement of the low-orbiting spa

31、cecraft. On the other hand, interference patterns which recur whenever a specific link geometry occurs will cause systematic problems to real-time observations of the Earths surface below a low-orbit spacecraft. The levels causing harmful interference to the Earth-to-space links will depend on the a

32、pportionment of margins to the tandem Earth-to-space and space-to-space links. The geometry of the Earth-to-space links towards the data relay satellite does not vary with time. In the analyses which follow, the bench-mark of link margin reduction by 0.4 dB due to single-entry interference has been

33、assumed, which has been used in other similar cases. This corresponds to a required ratio of interference power to system noise power (I/N) within the referenced bandwidth of at most 10 dB. 4 Rec. ITU-R SA.1155-2 3.1 Reference bandwidth The systems use direct-modulation schemes, so that the referenc

34、e bandwidth in which a protection ratio must be specified depends upon the lowest data rate and receiver bandwidth likely to be employed. For space-to-space links operating at frequencies in the 2 GHz band, the minimum data rate is likely to be around 1 kbit/s whereas for the higher frequency bands,

35、 it is likely to be at least 1 Mbit/s. Thus, the recommended value for the reference bandwidth in the 2 GHz band is 1 kHz and in the higher bands is 1 MHz. 3.2 Reference percentage of time For manned missions, a loss of communications for more than 5 min during critical phases, such as rendez-vous a

36、nd docking or extra-vehicular activities, could seriously affect the mission. For manned and unmanned missions, the reference is 0.1% of the time. For the space-to-space link, the percentage of time should be referenced to the period when the user satellite is in view of the corresponding data relay

37、 satellite (DRS), as this latter corresponds to the time when communications takes place, and receiving interference when communications does not take place is not relevant. 3.3 Required protection levels Communications through a data relay satellite comprise two links in series, either “forward”, b

38、eing an Earth-to-space “feeder” link in tandem with a space-to-space “inter-orbit” link, or “return”, being a space-to-Earth “feeder” link. The determination of protection levels requires the consideration of both the feeder link and the inter-orbit link. 3.3.1 Space-to-space links The total noise t

39、emperature of a typical space-station receiver is generally 600 K at 2 GHz increasing to 1 200 K at 20 GHz when the spacecraft antenna points at the Earth (290 K). These noise values should be used when the actual values are not available in determining if the requirement for I/N of 10 dB is met. Th

40、e noise contribution of the forward feeder link is small due to the negative transmission gain of the data relay satellites and has consequently not been considered. 3.3.2 DRS-to-Earth and Earth-to-DRS links Table 2 shows some examples of the interaction between the two parts of the overall end-to-e

41、nd link, both for return links and forward links, and for several different frequency bands. The link margins are typical values of representative system links. Since the links are typically “bent-pipe”: i.e. there is no onboard processing at the DRS, noise is additive, so the overall link margin is

42、 determined by a cascaded combination of the individual link margins. In some cases, the two links have similar margins (e.g. Return 15 GHz/13 GHz) and so both links are about equally sensitive to noise. In other cases, the space-to-space link has a much lower margin than the feeder link (e.g. Retur

43、n 2 GHz /13 GHz, Forward 15 GHz/13 GHz), so the former is much more sensitive to noise. This means that more interference can be allowed in the feeder links, so the I/N criterion is relaxed to 6 dB for those links. Rec.
