7、Detailed methodology for assessing interference 1 Introduction The performance of a spread-spectrum LEO MSS network can be degraded by the simultaneous operation of narrow-band transmitters in the same frequency band. Whilst it is of general interest to compute the bit-energy-to-noise density ratio,

8、 Eo, to estimate interference to a particular communication link, it is often sufficient to compute the carrier-to-noise density (CND) at the input to the receiver. In fact, without detailed knowledge of a particular receiving COPYRIGHT International Telecommunications Union/ITU RadiocommunicationsL

ITU-R M.1315 system, Eflo may be difficult or impossible to compute, whereas CND is relatively easy to compute. The effect of noise sources outside the network is easily expressed as a change to the

10、 CND, allowing easier comparison between alternative designs and frequency sharing arrangements. Interference effects expressed as changes to CND are computed both for the worst case of an interfering transmitter being within the main lobe of a tracking antenna and for the more prevalent case of the

11、 interfering transmitter being in a side lobe of the tracking antenna. 2 Step A : - - - Step B : Step C: Step D : Step E : 3. Outline of the calculation procedure Collection of network parameters: orbital parameters (altitude, constellation description), spacecraft radio parameters (power, bandwidth

12、, antenna gain pattern, polarization), Earth station radio parameters (antenna, G/T). Computation of the spread-spectrum CND network without external interference. Computation of CND due to external interference in both main beam and side lobes for each simultaneously received interfering signal, in

13、cluding the effect of frequency offset. Computation of overall CND (CI(N0 + io) for each interfering signal and of degradation to CND. Computation of the overall CND degradation due to multiple-channel simultaneous interference entries. Calculation steps (as defined in the above outline) Step A : Co

14、llection of network parameters To illustrate the calculation steps, two LEO MSS networks using the same downlink frequencies are assumed to have the parameters given in Table 1. It is assumed that the space station antennas are designed to compensate for the changing Earth-space basic transmission l

15、oss as the spacecraft rises, transits the sky, and sets. By assuming coupling into the main beam of the earth station, the computation can be made independent of receiver antenna gain. In the case of interference coming from a direction other than that of the main beam, the gain difference (or discr

16、imination) between main and side lobes must be obtained (or a typical value must be assumed). For this example, the spread-spectrum mobile earth station (user terminal) has a minimum elevation angle of 10 and an average elevation angle of 25“ to its space station, and the feeder link (gateway) earth

17、 station operates with a 5 minimum elevation angle. For the interfering transmitters in the narrow-band network, path loss values are required at the minimum elevation angle and the elevation angle which produces the maximum interfering signal. Step B: Computation of spread-spectrum CND network with

18、out external interference The overall CND of a communication network with a simple, frequency-translating transponder, is the reciprocal of the sum of the reciprocals of the CND values for the uplink and downlink. In the case of a multi-user spread-spectrum network of n users, additional noise in a

19、particular users link comes in the form of the carrier signals of the (n - 1) other users. The CND for both of the inbound links (user terminal-to-satellite and satellite-to-gateway earth station) are computed and the carrier to self-interference ratio (CND,) is computed. These will be combined to f

20、orm a CND value that can be used as a basis for comparison with values determined when out-of-network interference is present.

31、.7 - (3.5 + 10.4 - 141.1 - 59.6) = 45.6 dB(Hz) The overall CND for the network operating with n users and no external interference is the reciprocal of the sum of the reciprocals of these three values: Thus, when this example spread-spectrum communication network operates, it has a 44 dB(Hz) CND. If

32、 at this noise level there is a 5 dB operating margin, then any additional interference which reduces the overall CND below 39 dB(Hz) will cause the network to operate in a degraded manner.

More often, the interfer

34、ing satellite will be radiating its signal into a side lobe of the feeder link earth station antenna. The CNDi, the interference contribution to the overall CND, is computed for both cases. For the case of cross-polarized interfering and desired networks, allowances of 13 dB for polarization isolati

ITU-R M.1315 141 In addition, it is necessary to perform the entire calculation for at least two carrier frequencies of the narrow-band network, since the CND contribution of a narrow-band signal in

37、to a direct-sequence spread-spectrum network is related to the relative offset of the narrow-band camer from the spread-spectrum centre frequency.
