4、 document. Foreword This Candidate Harmonized European Standard (Telecommunications series) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Satellite Earth Stations and Systems (SES). The present document has been produced by ETSI in response to a mandate from the European Commission issued under Dire

5、ctive 98/34/EC 3 (as amended) laying down a procedure for the provision of information in the field of technical standards and regulations. The present document is intended to become a Harmonized Standard, the reference of which will be published in the Official Journal of the European Communities r

6、eferencing the Directive 1999/5/EC 1 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 March 1999 on radio equipment and telecommunications terminal equipment and the mutual recognition of their conformity (“R - it provides scope for standards to be added: - under article 3.2 when new frequency ban

7、ds are agreed; or - under article 3.3 should the Commission take the necessary decisions without requiring alteration of standards that are already published; - it clarifies, simplifies and promotes the usage of Harmonized Standards as the relevant means of conformity assessment. Remarks on the pres

8、ent document The present document allows the choice of either a class A Control and Monitoring system or a class B Control and Monitoring system. The class B system is more suitable for networks comprising very many terminals. The determination of the parameters of the user earth stations using a gi

9、ven geo-stationary satellite for the protection of the spectrum allocated to that satellite, is considered to be under the responsibility of the satellite operator or the satellite network operators. For this reason the requirement on the cross polarization discrimination which was in TBR 28 (see Bi

10、bliography) has not been copied in the present document and inter-modulation limits inside the band 14,0 GHz to 14,5 GHz are to be determined by system design and are subject to satellite operator specifications. The requirements have been selected to ensure an adequate level of compatibility with o

11、ther radio services. The levels, however, do not cover extreme cases which may occur in any location but with a low probability of occurrence. The present document may not cover those cases where a potential source of interference which is producing individually repeated transient phenomena or a con

12、tinuous phenomenon is present, e.g. a radar or broadcast site in the near vicinity. In such a case it may be necessary to use special protection applied to either the source of interference, or the interfered part or both. The present document does not contain any requirement, recommendation or info

ETSI ETSI EN 301 428 V1.3.1 (2006-02) 111 Scope The present document applies to Very Small Aperture Terminals (VSATs) which have the following characteristics: The VSAT is operating in one or more frequency ranges in the part of the following

15、bands allocated exclusively to the Fixed Satellite Services (FSS): - 14,00 GHz to 14,25 GHz (earth-to-space); - 12,50 GHz to 12,75 GHz (space-to-earth); or in the shared parts of the following bands, allocated to the FSS and Fixed Services (FS): - 14,25 GHz to 14,50 GHz (earth-to-space); - 10,70 GHz

16、 to 11,70 GHz (space-to-earth). The VSAT uses linear polarization. The VSAT operates through a geostationary satellite at least 3 away from any other geostationary satellite operating in the same frequency band and covering the same area. The VSAT antenna diameter does not exceed 3,8 m, or equivalen

17、t effective area. The VSAT is either: - a transmit only VSAT: designed for transmission only of radio-communications signals in any of the frequency bands (earth-to-space) specified above; or - a transmit and receive VSAT: designed for transmission and reception of radio-communications signals in an

18、y of the frequency bands specified above; or - a receive only VSAT: designed for reception only of radio-communications signals in any of the frequency bands (space-earth) specified above. The VSAT is designed usually for unattended operation. The VSAT is operating as part of a satellite network (e.

19、g. star, mesh or point-to-point) used for the distribution and/or exchange of information between users. The transmit-only and transmit-and-receive VSAT is controlled and monitored by a Centralized Control and Monitoring Function (CCMF). The CCMF is outside the scope of the present document. The pre

33、 any network configuration including star, mesh and point-to-point configurations nominated bandwidth: bandwidth of the VSAT radio frequency transmission is nominated by the applicant. NOTE 1: The nominated bandwidth is centred on the transmit frequency and does not exceed 5 times the occupied bandw

The nominated bandwidth is wide enough to take account of the transmit carrier frequency stability. This definition is

35、chosen to allow flexibility regarding adjacent channel interference levels which will be taken into account by operational procedures depending on the exact transponder carrier assignment situation. occupied bandwidth: for a digital modulation scheme-the width of the signal spectrum 10 dB below the

In the “In-service“ state the VSAT is allowed to transmit. 4.1.4.3 Class B CMF For VSATs implementing class B CMF, the four states are the following: “Non valid“; “Initial phase“; “Transmission disabled“; and “Transmission enabled“. The four states

48、of the VSAT are represented in figure 3 and are used in clause 4.2.7 for the specification of the class B CMF. 4.1.4.4 Radio states The VSAT “may transmit“ when all the conditions for transmission are satisfied (e.g. in a state where transmissions are permitted, no failure detected). The following r

Table 1a gives the only possible combinations of the VSAT states and radio states which shall apply, with some examples of associated events. When the VSAT transmits several carriers having different frequencies, a VSAT state machine as described above may be associated with each carrier or each set of carri
