1、 Rec. ITU-R SM.337-6 1 RECOMMENDATION ITU-R SM.337-6 Frequency and distance separations (1948-1951-1953-1963-1970-1974-1990-1992-1997-2007-2008) Scope This Recommendation provides the procedures for calculating distance and frequency separations for an acceptable interference level. The ITU Radiocom

The measures are: frequency dependent rejection (FDR) which is a measure of the rejection produced by the receiver selectivity curve on an unwanted transmitter emission spectra; FD which is a measure of the minimum distance separation th

11、at is required between a victim receiver and an interferer as a function of the difference between their tuned frequencies; relative radio-frequency protection ratio A (see Recommendation ITU-R BS.560) which is the difference (dB) between the protection ratio when the carriers of the wanted and unwa

The FD and FDR are measures of the interference coupling mechanism between interferer and receiver and are the basic solutions required for many interference e

13、valuations. They aid in the solution of co-channel frequency sharing and adjacent band or channel interference problems by providing estimates of the minimum frequency and distance separation criteria between interferer and receiver which are required for acceptable receiver performance. The interfe

14、rence level at the receiver is a function of the gains and losses the interference signal will incur between the source and the receiver and is expressed by: I = Pt+ Gt+ Gr Lb(d) FDR(f ) dBW (1) where: Pt: interferer transmitter power (dB) Gt: gain of interferer antenna in direction of receiver (dBi

ITU-R SM.337-6 Annex 2 Methodology to determine frequency and distance separation for radio systems 1 Introduction It is well known t

19、hat FD rules are an important part of the frequency management process in most radio services. In channelized services, these rules take the following form: co-channel transmitters must be separated by at least d0(km), the adjacent channel transmitters must be separated by at least d1(km), transmitt

20、ers separated by two channels must be at least d2(km) away and so on. For older technologies the FD rules are usually well known by now. However, the introduction of new technologies raises the question: what kind of FD rules a spectrum manager should apply when new and old systems occupy the same f

21、requency band? The methodology that is required to determine FD separation rules between both similar and dissimilar systems is given below. 2 Methodology The development of a new FD rule requires the computation of the level of interference at the input of the victim receiver, and also requires the

22、 definition of an acceptable interference criterion. 2.1 Interference computation This depends on two primary factors: a spectral factor and a spatial factor. The spectral factor depends on the spectral characteristics of the interfering transmitter and the frequency response of the victim receiver.

23、 For computational purposes one must have accurate knowledge of the power spectral density of the interfering signal which depends on factors such as the underlying modulation technique and the bandwidth of the information signal for analogue systems and the transmitted data rate in the case of digi

24、tal systems. As far as the victim receiver is concerned, one must know the equivalent IF frequency response characteristics of the receiver. Manufacturers specifications such as the 6 dB and the 40 dB bandwidth of the IF stage may be used as a basis for modeling the receivers IF frequency response.

25、The spectral factor is represented by the off-channel-rejection factor OCR(f ), which is defined by the following relationship: +=ffPfffHfPfd)(d)()(log10)(OCR2dB (7) where: P( f ) : power spectral density of the interfering signal in (W/Hz) H( f ) : equivalent IF frequency response of the victim rec

26、eiver f : frequency separation between the victim receiver and the interfering transmitter. Note that equation (7) is not different from equation (2), even though the lower limits of integration are different. Rec. ITU-R SM.337-6 5 It is evident from equation (7) that OCR(f ) is strongly dependent o

27、n the extent of overlapping between the receiver passband and the power spectrum of the interfering signal. As f increases, the extent of overlapping diminishes, thus resulting in lower interference power or, equivalently, higher values for OCR(f ). The spatial factor of the methodology is concerned

28、 with the computation of the distance related signal attenuation; it is closely related to the propagation model to be used and to the statistical distribution of the interfering signal at the front end of the victim receiver. An appropriate propagation model as recommended by ITU-R should be used.

29、The propagation model to be used with this procedure is of course dependent on the system configuration as well as the operating frequency band and the geographical environment surrounding the service area and the system bandwidth. 2.2 Interference criterion This usually is a simple relationship bas

30、ed on which one judges the interference as harmful or tolerable. Such a criterion should ideally be tied to the level of performance degradation the victim receiver may be capable of tolerating. This however is not practical at least from the point of view that there are many different types of syst

31、ems and technologies that may not be capable of dealing with interference the same way. A more generic criterion based on a protection ratio (dB) is therefore adopted. The interference will be considered tolerable if the following inequality is satisfied: idPP (8) where: Pd: desired signal level (dB

32、W) Pi: interfering signal level (dBW) : protection ratio (dB). 2.3 Procedure The procedure for developing a FD separation rule can now be summarized as follows: Step 1: Determine the desired signal level Pd(dBW) at the victim receiver front end. Step 2: Calculate the resulting level of interference

33、at the victim receivers front end using the formula: ()fLGPPprti+= OCR (9) where: Pt: equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) of the interfering transmitter (dBW) Gr: gain of the receiving antenna with respect to an isotropic antenna (dBi) Lp: propagation path loss OCR (f ) : off-channel-

34、rejection factor for a frequency separation f as expressed by equation (7). The OCR values used in this paper are assumed. The purpose of this Recommendation is to present the methodology rather than the development of OCR values. 6 Rec. ITU-R SM.337-6 Step 3: Substitute Pdand Piof steps 1 and 2 abo

35、ve into equation (8) to derive or numerically compute a relationship between the frequency separation f and the distance separation d such that the interference is considered tolerable. 2.4 Alternative procedure In the real environment, the received signal at the victim receiver experiences shadow f

36、ading which is represented by log-normal distribution. To compensate for this fading effect, the received signal level should be higher than the sensitivity level. An alternative procedure for determining a required isolation between the victim and the interferer, reflecting the shadowing effect, is

37、 presented as follows: Step 1: Calculate the required isolation in order to prevent the interferer from causing radio interference to the victim using the formula: )110log(10)(OCR)(10/+=NminrtIfPGPL (10) where: LI: isolation required between the interferer and the victim to ensure tolerable interfer

38、ence (dB) Pt: equivalent isotropic radiated power (e.i.r.p.) of the interfering transmitter (dBW) Gr: gain of the receiving antenna with respect to an isotropic antenna (dBi) Pmin: minimum desired signal level (dBW) : protection ratio (dB) OCR(f): off-channel-rejection factor for a frequency separat

39、ion f as expressed by equation (7) N: log-normal fading margin (dB). Step 2: Employing an appropriate ITU-R propagation model to equation (10) gives the frequency separation f and the distance separation d at which the interference can be tolerable. 2.5 Consideration of antenna isolation When severa

40、l different radio systems are co-located, the antenna isolation concept can be brought into consideration in the calculation of interference between them. Figure 1 gives generic examples of antenna arrangements which illustrate the isolations of horizontal (HI), vertical (VI) and slant (SI) antenna

41、configurations. The antenna isolation is mainly dependent on distance separation and wavelength, , (m). The distance separation between two antennas is the distance from the centre of interferer antenna to that of victim receiver antenna1. Antenna-to-antenna isolations are normally expressed in term

42、s of dB of attenuation. 1In the practical situation the distance between the interferer antenna and victim receiver antenna may be measured between the nearest edges of both antenna systems for convenience. Rec. ITU-R SM.337-6 7 The isolation between two dipole antennas can be approximately computed

43、 by using the following equations (10a), (10b) and (10c): )/log(2022HI(dB) + x (10a) )/log(4028VI(dB) + y (10b) HI/2HI)(VISI(dB) + (10c) where (rad) is tan1(y/x), x is the horizontal distance, and y is the vertical distance. The equations are applicable when x is greater than 10 and y is greater tha

44、n . These isolations obtained from equations (10a), (10b) and (10c) can be substituted for the basic transmission loss (Lb (d ) of equation (1) or the propagation path loss (Lp) of equation (9) when two stations are co-located.

45、 Rec. ITU-R SM.337-6 3 Application to land mobile radio systems To demonstrate the methodology described above, an example using two dissimilar land mobile radio (LMR) systems is described in this section. The two systems considered could be digital or analogue with TDMA or FDMA access techniques. O

46、ur computations are based on spectral emission masks and certain receiver selectivity requirements and as such the results are independent of any particular modulation techniques that may be used by either of the two systems. In this example, the receiver selectivity was assumed to have similar char

47、acteristics to the spectral emission masks, a consideration which is expected to be the case for digital systems. The assumptions made for the two systems are summarized in Tables 1 and 2: TABLE 1 Assumed parameters for the example Minimum desired signal level, Pmin145 dBW Required protection ratio,

49、ase and mobile-to-mobile. In simplex systems, where the base and the mobiles transmit on the same frequency, all four modes of interference are present. On the other hand, in duplex systems the mobiles and the base transmit on different frequencies and hence only the base-to-mobile and the mobile-to-base modes need to be considered. For the distance of separation analysis purpose however, we only need to look at the worst case; the interference case
