ITU-R SF.1485 2 ANNEX 1 Determination of the coordination area for earth stations operating with non-GSO space stations in the FSS in frequency bands shared with the FS 1 Introduction This procedure has be

10、en developed for determining the coordination area around an earth station operating with a non-GSO space station in frequency bands shared with terrestrial radiocommunication services. The operation of transmitting and receiving non-GSO earth stations and terrestrial stations in shared frequency ba

11、nds may give rise to interference between stations of the two services. The magnitude of such interference depends on the transmission loss along the interfering path which, in turn, depends on factors such as length and general geometry of the interference path, the minimum operational elevation an

12、gle, antenna gain distribution as a function of time, radio climatic conditions and the percentage of time during which the transmission loss should be exceeded. The described procedure allows the determination, in all azimuth directions from a transmitting or receiving earth station, of a distance

13、beyond which the transmission loss would be expected to exceed a specified value for all but a specified percentage of the time. A distance so determined is called the coordination distance. The end points of coordination distances determined for all azimuths define a coordination contour around the

14、 earth station, which contains the coordination area. For terrestrial stations located outside the coordination area the probability of causing or experiencing significant interference is considered to be negligible. Although based on technical data, the coordination area is an administrative concep

15、t. Since the coordination area is determined before any specific cases of potential interference are examined in detail, it must therefore rely on assumed parameters of the terrestrial systems, while the pertinent parameters of the transmitting earth stations are known. Stations located outside the

16、coordination area of a given planned station are eliminated from any coordination consideration. Consequently, the coordination requirements of a station may be strictly domestic, if the coordination area of the planned station lies entirely in the territory of the notifying administration or, domes

17、tic and international if the coordination area also includes the territory of another administration in which case the coordination agreement of that administration is required. Stations located in the coordination area of a planned station need to be examined on a case-by-case basis initially, taki

18、ng into account the antenna discrimination, separation distance and path profile if necessary. For the determination of the coordination area, two cases may have to be considered: a) the non-GSO earth station is transmitting and hence capable of interfering with the reception of terrestrial stations

19、; b) the non-GSO earth station is receiving and hence capable of being interfered-with by emissions from terrestrial stations. Whilst this Annex describes case a) in which the non-GSO earth station is transmitting and the terrestrial station is receiving, the methodologies are applicable to case b)

20、in which the terrestrial station is transmitting and the non-GSO earth station is receiving. 2 General considerations 2.1 Concept of minimum permissible transmission loss The determination of the coordination distance, as the distance from a non-GSO earth station beyond which interference from or to

21、 a terrestrial station may be considered negligible, is based on the premise that the attenuation of an unwanted signal is, or can be represented by, a monotonically increasing function of distance. Rec. ITU-R SF.1485 3 The amount of attenuation required between an interfering transmitter and an int

22、erfered-with receiver is given by the minimum permissible transmission loss for p% of the time, a value of transmission loss which should be exceeded by the actual or predicted transmission loss for all but p% of the time (when p is a small percentage of time, in the range 0.001% to 1.0%, it is refe

23、rred to as short-term; if p 20%, it is referred to as long-term): )()( pPPpLrt= dB (1) where: Pt: maximum available transmitting power level (dBW) in the reference bandwidth at the input to the antenna of an interfering station Pr(p): threshold interference level of an interfering emission (dBW) in

24、the reference bandwidth to be exceeded for no more than p% of the time at the terminals of the receiving antenna of an interfered-with station, the interfering emission originating from a single source. Ptand Pr(p) are defined for the same radio-frequency bandwidth (the reference bandwidth) and L(p)

25、 and Pr(p) for the same percentage of the time, as dictated by the performance criteria of the interfered-with system. Only small percentages of the time are of interest here. Considering a specific mechanism of propagation for the interfering emission, the coordination distance can be determined. T

26、he ITU-R is currently developing propagation models suitable for the determination of the coordination area for earth stations operating with non-GSO satellite networks. 2.2 The concept of minimum permissible basic transmission loss The transmission loss is defined in terms of separable parameters,

27、vis-vis basic transmission loss (i.e. attenuation between isotropic antennas) and the effective antenna gains at both ends of an interference path. The minimum permissible basic transmission loss may then be expressed as: )()( pPGGPpLrrttb+= dB (2) where: Lb(p): minimum permissible basic transmissio

28、n loss (dB) for p% of the time; this value must be exceeded by the actual or predicted basic transmission loss for all but p% of the time Gt: gain of the transmitting antenna of the interfering station (dBi). If the interfering station is a non-GSO earth station, this is the time-varying antenna gai

29、n towards the physical horizon on a given azimuth; in the case of a terrestrial station the maximum expected antenna gain is to be used Gr: gain of the receiving antenna of the interfered-with station (dBi). If the interfered-with station is a non-GSO earth station, this is the time-varying gain tow

30、ards the physical horizon on a given azimuth; in the case of a terrestrial station, the maximum expected antenna gain is to be used. 2.3 Derivation of interference parameters 2.3.1 Determination of the threshold interference level Pr(p) of an interfering emission The threshold interference level (dB

31、W) of the interfering emission in the reference bandwidth, to be exceeded for no more than p% of the time at the receiving antenna terminals of a station subject to interference, from each source of interference, is given by the general formula below: WNBTkpPsMLer+= )( 110log10)(log10)(10/dBW (3) wh

32、ere: k: Boltzmanns constant (1.38 1023J/K)Te: thermal noise temperature of the receiving system (K), at the terminal of the receiving antenna (see Note 1) B: reference bandwidth (Hz), i.e. the bandwidth in the interfered-with system over which the power of the interfering emission can be averaged NL

33、: link noise contribution (see Note 2) Rec. ITU-R SF.1485 4 p: percentage of time during which the interference from one source may exceed the threshold value; since the entries of interference are not likely to occur simultaneously: p = p0/n p0: percentage of time during which the interference from

34、 all sources may exceed the threshold value n: number of equivalent equal level, equal probability entries of interference, assumed to be uncorrelated for small percentages of time Ms: link performance margin (dB) W: an equivalence factor (dB) relating interference from interfering emissions to that

35、 caused, alternatively, by the introduction of additional thermal noise of equal power in the reference bandwidth (see Note 3). NOTE 1 The noise temperature (K) of the receiving system, referred to the output terminals of the receiving antenna, may be determined from: raeeTeTT += 290)1( K (4) where:

36、 Ta: noise temperature (K) contributed by the receiving antenna e: numerical loss in the transmission line (e.g. a waveguide) between the antenna terminal and the receiver front end Tr: noise temperature (K) of the receiver front end, including all successive stages at the front end input. For radio

37、-relay receivers and where the waveguide loss of a receiving earth station is not known, a value of e = 1.0 should be used. NOTE 2 The factor NLis the noise contribution to the link. In the case of a satellite transponder, it includes the up-link noise, intermodulation, etc. For example, in the abse

38、nce of specific interference data, it is assumed: NL= 1 dB for FSS links NL= 0 dB for terrestrial links NOTE 3 The factor W (dB) is the level of the radio-frequency thermal noise power relative to the received power of an interfering emission which, in the place of the former and contained in the sa

39、me (reference) bandwidth, would produce the same interference (e.g. an increase in the voice or video channel noise power, or in the BER). The factor W generally depends on the characteristics of both the wanted and the interfering signals. The factor W is positive when the interfering emissions wou

40、ld cause more degradation than thermal noise. When the wanted signal is digital, W is usually equal to or less than 0 dB, regardless of the characteristics of the interfering signal. 3 Determination of the antenna gain of the non-GSO satellite system earth station For an earth station operating with

41、 a non-GSO satellite, the gain of the antenna varies as a function of time. The statistics of the horizon gain of the antenna of a non-GSO earth station can either be provided by administrations or derived based on computer simulations. Using computer simulations, a methodology for calculating the t

42、ime-varying gain of the antenna of a non-GSO earth station is as follows: Simulate the non-GSO satellite constellation over a sufficiently long period (e.g. one repetition cycle of the constellation) with a time step appropriate for the orbit altitude to have a valid representation of the antenna ga

43、in variations. At each time step, record the earth station azimuth and elevation angles of all satellites which are visible at the earth station and are above the minimum operational elevation angle. Criteria in addition to elevation angle could be used to avoid certain geometries, e.g. geostationar

44、y orbit arc avoidance. Rec. ITU-R SF.1485 5 Use the actual earth station antenna pattern or a formula giving a good approximation of it to calculate the gain towards the horizon at each azimuth around the earth station. For each azimuth on the horizon around the earth station, calculate the percenta

45、ge of time each gain value occurs. The probability density function (pdf) of the horizon antenna gain varies over the range Gminto Gmax. It is recommended that increments of s (dB) are used between Gminand Gmax, i.e., G = Gmin, Gmin + s, Gmin + 2s,., Gmax. Derive the gain cumulative distribution fun

46、ction (cdf) by integrating the gain density function; this cdf gives the percentage of time that the gain is less than or equal to a specific value. 3.1 Determination of the antenna geometry The following equations are used in the above algorithmic approach to describe the geometry of the boresight

47、of the antenna of the non-GSO earth station as a function of time. For a spherical earth and a circular orbit, the elevation angle (t) to a non-GSO satellite as seen from the non-GSO earth station is given by: )cos(2()cos()sin(22+=gsgsgstrrrrrr(5) where: )(sin)(sin)(sin)(sin)cos()(sin)cos()cos()cos(
