2、F.1501 The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, considering a) that WRC-97 designated the bands 47.2-47.5 GHz and 47.9-48.2 GHz for use by HAPSs in the FS; b) that, subject to the provisions of Resolution 122 (Rev.WRC-2000), these bands are also allocated for use by the fixed, fixed-satellite and mobile

3、 services; c) that frequency sharing for fixed-service systems using HAPSs and other systems in the FS is being considered in ITU-R; d) that there may be a requirement to establish criteria for determining coordination distances within which detailed sharing arrangements would need to be considered,

4、 or that there may be a requirement to specify predetermined coordination distances, recommends 1 that Annex 1 should be used for the determination of coordination distance or as a basis for establishing a predetermined coordination distance between stations operating in a high-altitude platform net

9、 between a HAPS and ground terminals In the path between a HAPS and ground terminals of other systems in the conventional FS or in different HAPN, atmospheric gases including water vapour cause attenuation, which depends on the distribution along the path of meteorological parameters such as tempera

10、ture, pressure and humidity, and thus varies with the geographic location of the site, the month of the year, the height of a ground terminal above sea level, the elevation angle of the slant path and the operating frequency. According to Recommendation ITU-R SF.1395, the following numerical formula

11、e can be used for estimating minimum slant path attenuation in the 47 GHz band where: AL (h, ), AM(h, ) and AH(h, ): total atmospheric absorption loss (dB) for the low-latitude (within 22.5 of the Equator), mid-latitude (greater than 22.5, but less than 45 from the Equator) and high-latitude (45 or

12、more from the Equator) areas, respectively; h and : ground terminal antenna altitude above sea level (km) and elevation angle (degrees), respectively. The approximation was carried out for 0 h 3 km and 0 90. The actual elevation angle may be determined from the elevation angle developed under free s

13、pace propagation conditions using the method in Recommen-dation ITU-R F.1333. For actual elevation angles below 0, the attenuation for 0 should be used.

ITU-R F.1501 3 2.1.2 Attenuation between two HAPSs If two HAPSs use two frequency bands for opposite directions of transmission, there is a possibility of unacceptable inte

17、rference between them. If the distance between sub-HAPS points is sufficiently large, the path may be subject to attenuation due to atmospheric gases mainly in the lower atmosphere. The method of estimating the minimum value of this attenuation is described below. First, calculate the average altitu

18、de, h0(km), of the altitudes h1 and h2 of two HAPS platforms as follows: h0= (h1+ h2)/2 (5) It is assumed that h1 and h2 may be different, but the difference is not significant (see Note 2). Then from Table 1 for 20 h0 30 km, calculate the minimum altitude of the path, h(km), between two HAPSs. For

19、those values of h0 and the distance which are not given in Table 1, the minimum altitude of the path can be estimated by means of an appropriate interpolation.
