13、dination among GSO BSS and associated feeder-link networks serving Region 2 in the 17.3-17.8 GHz and 24.75-25.25 GHz unplanned frequency bands 1.1 Introduction WRC-03 adopted a provisional value of 16 as the coordination arc applicable for the BSS in bands above 17.3 GHz. Resolution 901 (WRC-03) inv

14、ites ITU-R to “conduct studies on the applicability of the coordination arc concept for space radiocommunication services not yet covered by these Regulations”. This Annex provides the results of a study to determine the applicability of the provisional coordination arc value for triggering coordina

15、tion for the 25/17 GHz BSS frequency band in Region 2. Based on information supplied by Canada in accordance with Appendix 4 of the RR, the analysis was performed for two Canadian BSS networks using the unplanned bands 24.75-25.25 GHz (feeder link) and 17.3-17.8 GHz (downlink). Both the traditional

16、BSS system and multimedia forward link were examined. The coordination filings for the CAN-BSS network are divided into two different groups embracing two system designs, and eleven orbital positions. The first group, called CAN-BSS-A for the purpose of this study, covers five orbital positions rang

17、ing from 78 W to 103 W. The second group, CAN-BSS-B, covers the remaining six orbital positions from 82 W to 118.7 W. Appendix 8 of the RR contains a method for calculating the need for coordination between two geostationary satellites sharing the same frequency band. It is based on the increase of

18、the equivalent satellite noise temperature due to interference. Given that coordination is required for any T/T greater or equal to 6%, this method can be reengineered to find the required orbital spacing between satellites. Rec. ITU-R BO.1834 3 1.2 Assumptions and results 1.2.1 Assumptions In order

19、 to perform the analysis, a certain number of assumptions were made. 1. A homogeneous satellite model was used for the interfering satellite, based on the design of the wanted satellite for each group. 2. Since the coordination filings are identical for each of the two groups, a single central satel

20、lite longitude was chosen to represent each group. 3. The wanted and interfering earth stations were assumed to be in the same location as this represents the worst-case scenario. In both the traditional broadcast and multimedia cases, the downlink beams are designed to uniformly cover the entire se

21、rvice area (in this case North and/or South America depending on the network). The traditional broadcast configuration uses one regional beam to illuminate the service area whereas the multimedia configuration uses many smaller steerable spot beams to illuminate the service area. 4. As Recommendatio

22、n ITU-R S.465 does not define the main lobe, the antenna pattern in Annex 3 of Appendix 8 of the RR was used to define the antenna gain for those off-axis angles outside the range of Recommendation ITU-R S.465-5. This is consistent with the software implementation of earth station antenna patterns f

23、or use in coordination, as developed by BR. 5. The signal polarity was assumed to be the same between beams. 1.2.2 Results of analysis for traditional BSS configurations Table 1 illustrates both the maximum and average (mean) values for the orbital separation required for coordination under the T/T

24、method, for both the North American and South American beams. The CAN-BSS-A group uses a 25 MHz transponder bandwidth, while CAN-BSS-B group uses a 27 MHz bandwidth. The coordination arc is defined as the nominal orbital position of the satellite plus and minus the required orbital separation based

25、on the T/T method.

ITU-R BO.1834 1.2.3 Results of analysis for multimedia broadcast configuration (forward-link only) Table 2 illustrates both the maximum and average (mean) values for the orbital separation required for coordination under the T/T method. Unlike the tra

27、ditional broadcast configurations above, which have different beams for North and South America, the service area for the multimedia configuration covers the visible Earth.

28、ce Forward link: CAN-BSS-A CAN-BSS-B MAX MEAN MAX MEAN 17.95 16.11 16.47 15.74 Comparing Tables 1 and 2, it is observed that the coordination arc values of multimedia broadcast configuration are significantly larger than that of the traditional broadcast configuration. The major difference between t

29、he traditional broadcast and multimedia configurations are that while the traditional mode uses one regional shaped beam, the multimedia mode uses several smaller spot beams. Due in part to the higher gain of the spot beams, the e.i.r.p. for the multimedia configuration is higher compared to the tra

30、ditional broadcast configuration. There is also an increase in the intersystem interference as multiple beams are required to cover the intended service area. Frequency reuse plans as well as channel and traffic planning can and are used to help mitigate this interference. The methodology of Appendi

31、x 8 of the RR assumes that both the wanted and interfering earth stations operate at the exact same frequency. This represents the absolute worst-case scenario does not take into account any mitigation techniques. This accounts for the increase in orbital separation required to reach a T/T equal to

32、6%. 1.3 Conclusion The coordination arc values calculated for the CAN-BSS networks using the traditional BSS design, which uses one shaped beam to cover the entire service area, range from 5 to 9. This is well within the proposed value of 16. Without taking into account any interference mitigation t

33、echniques, the multimedia broadcast design, utilizing spot beams and higher gain antennas, requires larger coordination arc values, which range from 16 to 18. This is slightly above the proposed coordination arc value contained in Appendix 5 of the RR. Consequently, the results presented in this Ann

34、ex show that a coordination arc of 16 degrees is appropriate for intraservice, intraregional coordination for Region 2 BSS and associated feeder-link systems in the bands 17.3-17.8 GHz and 24.75-25.25 GHz.

35、 2 GSO BSS networks in the band 17.3-17.8 GHz 2.1 Introduction Following the decision of WRC-03 to introduce a preliminary value of 16 for the coordination arc associated with BSS networks in frequency bands above 17.3 GHz, ITU-R reviewed the appropriateness of such a value for the specific case of

36、the interregional coordination between FSS (space-to-Earth) with respect to BSS in Region 2 in the frequency band 17.3-17.8 GHz. This band is allocated, inter alia, to the broadcasting-satellite service in Region 2 and to the fixed-satellite service in the space-to-Earth direction in Region 1. No. 5

37、.516B of the RR applies with regard to the FSS downlink allocation in the frequency band 17.3-17.7 GHz. No. 5.517 of the Radio Regulations applies with regard to the FSS downlink allocation in Region 2 in the frequency band 17.7-17.8 GHz. This Annex records the studies performed within ITU-R on the

38、specific case described above and provides the results derived from these studies. This Annex only addresses the interservice coordination between BSS in Region 2 and FSS (space-to-Earth) in Region 1. The results given in this Annex essentially rely on the fact that there exists a natural geographic

39、al isolation between land masses of the two Regions. Therefore they can not be extended to the intraservice BSS coordination in Region 2. They can, however, easily be extended to FSS (space-to-Earth) in Region 3 with respect to BSS in Region 2, since there exists a similar geographical isolation bet

40、ween these two Regions. 2.2 Methodology The methodology to study the appropriate possible coordination arc value was derived from the method described in Appendix 8 of the Radio Regulations as prescribed by Appendix 5 of the RR for requests for coordination under No. 9.7 of the RR. The purpose of th

41、is analysis is: 1. To assess the e.i.r.p. which could be radiated over Region 2 by an FSS network without triggering a coordination with a BSS network depending of the orbital separation between the two networks. 2. To compare the values found in the studies described above with technical parameters

42、 of BSS and FSS systems intended to be deployed in the band 17.3-17.8 GHz. 2.2.1 Derivation of maximum e.i.r.p. radiated without triggering a coordination From the receiving system noise temperature and the interference criterion, an interference density was computed. The e.i.r.p. density towards a

43、Region was then computed from this interference density taking into account only free space loss: ()=tESdESgklttTdensityprie log10).(. 6 Rec. ITU-R BO.1834 where: e.i.r.p.

No polarization advantage was taken into account. 2.3 Technical parameters of BSS and FSS systems 2.3.1 BSS systems 2.3.1.1 Interference criterion The c

47、 band 17.3-17.8 GHz are extracted from Appendix 1 to this Annex: antenna diameter: 30 cm1, 45 cm, 60 cm, 90 cm, 120 cm and 140 cm2; antenna radiation pattern: five antenna patterns were considered, namely Annex III of Appendix 8 of the RR, Recommendation ITU-R S.465-5 (complemented by Appendix 8 of

48、the RR for the main beam), Recommendation ITU-R S.580-6 (complemented by Appendix 8 of the RR for the main beam), Recommendation ITU-R BO.1213-1 and the pattern given in Appendix 1 to this Annex; receiving system noise temperature at the output of BSS earth station antenna: two values for the earth

49、station noise temperature were considered, namely 140 K and 170 K. For the purpose of this Annex, the more sensitive value was used, i.e. 140 K. 1Appendix 1 to this Annex does not mention the possible use of 30 cm antennas. It is however felt that this may occur in the future. Therefore, this analysis was conducted by including such an antenna diameter. The results are presented as two separate cases (Tables 4 and 5) depending on the inclusion of the 30 cm antennas or not. 2Community reception may use larger antennas. However
