6、 1. INTRODUCTION The ERC has studied the frequency allocation questions including the sharing for the wind profiler radars. Also the results from the recent CCTR studies were taken into account. Wind profilers for meteorological purposes are high power radars and therefore they should operate in the

7、 frequency bands allocated to the radiolocation services. 2. FREQUENCY BANDS CONSIDERED FOR 400 MHz WIND PROFILER RADARS In the 400 MHz band the only band allocated for the radiolocation service on a primary basis in Region 1 is the band 430 MHz - 440 MHz. This band is, however, shared with the amat

8、eur service on a primary basis and with other types of radiolocation systems including the airborne radars. Additionally, in a number of countries a part of this band is also used by the mobile and fixed services. 3. SHARING CONSIDERATIONS FOR 400 MHz WIND PROFILER RADARS (a) Sharing in the band 401

9、 MHz - 406 MHz This band is allocated internationally to the Meteorological Aids service. Experimental wind profilers have operated in this band as Meteorological Aids. However, the adjacent band (406.0 MHz - 406.1 MHz) is used for low power satellite emergency position indicating radio beacons (e.g

10、. COSPAS-SARSAT satellites). The CCIR IWP 8/15 at its recent meeting studied the compatibility problems of operating wind profilers and the distress and safety service in these adjacent bands. It concluded that such operation was not possible. It is further to be noted that RR No. N 3067 prohibits a

11、ny emission capable of causing hdl interference to distress, alarm, urgency or safety communications in the band 406.0 MHz - 406.1 MHz. (b) Sharing in the band 430 MHz - 440 MHz Based on the studies performed within ERC it was concluded that sharing with the wind profiler radars and other terrestria

12、l radio services at 400 MHz is not possible and in adjacent bands geographical separation would be required. The sharing constraints can, however. be relieved with proper site shielding (e.g. siting the radars in depressions in the ground). This method is applicable only on a case by case basis in n

13、ational frequency allocation considerations. In considering sharing with terrestrial services, the site shielding principle can, of course, on a national level be applied to other frequency bands around 400 MHz. According to the report from CCIR Mrp 8/15 sharing with the amateur and terrestrial radi

14、olocation services may require separation distances of 60 km and 120 km respectively. Concerning sharing between airborne radars (principally radio altimeters) and amateur satellite receivers it was concluded by the CCIR IWP 8/15 report that the frequencies chosen for wind profiler radars need to be

15、 substantially offset from those used by airborne radars and receivers on amateur-satellite spacecrafts to avoid interference. ERC REPORT 2 Page 2 4. SHARING CONSIDERATIONS FOR 50 MHz AND 1000 MHz WIND PROFILER RADARS For wind profiler radars at 50 MHz and 1000 MHz no relevant material has yet been

16、supplied and hence the ERC has not yet carried out any sharing studies. On a national level the site shielding principle on a case by case basis is applicable also to frequency bands around 50 MHz and 1000 MHz. CCIR IWP 8/15 concluded that wind profiler meteorological radars should not be accommodat

17、ed in the 960 MHz - 1215 MHz aeronautical radionavigation band, unless studies prove that sharing is possible with aeronautical radionavigation. 5. CONCLUSION Due to the sharing constraints the band 430 MHz - 440 MHz cannot be used without national ceordination. Therefore, it seems that it is not po

18、ssible in Europe to find a harmonised frequency sub-band within 430 MHZ - 440 MHz for the wind profiler radar application This conclusion applies in general to the 400 MHz band. Therefore, it is concluded that for the time being the frequency allocation for wind profiler radars can only be solved na

19、tionally on a case by case basis. This principle also applies to wind profiler radars at 50MHz and 1000 MHz. Whilst recognising that this approach is far from ideai and may not be possible in some countries, until further work is done on the technical development of wind profiler radars it offers th

20、e only possible solution in the meantime. The ERC will continue to follow the technical development of the wind profiler radars and the ongoing CCIR work as well as any outcome of the WARC 92 deliberations on this item and, if needed, is prepared to reconsider the frequency allocation questions. Tho

21、se concerned with the development of wind profiler radars are urged to take into account the problems highlighted in this Report in order to work towards a more satisfactory solution. In particular it is necessary to improve the spectrum efficiency of wind profiler radars and the directivity of their antennas.
