Annex 1 Protection criteria for Cospas-Sarsat in the band 406-406.1 MHz against out-of-band broadband emissions 1 Introduction Thi

28、s Annex provides information relating to the C-S system and its protection requirements from broadband out-of-band emissions. 2 Background Other ITU texts provide substantial information concerning the following items: parameters of several non-GSO MSS networks; pfd threshold level of interference;

29、search and rescue (SAR) protection using spectral shaping or filtering techniques. 3 spfd threshold level of interference The addition of broadband noise to the Sarsat SARP will have the effect of increasing the system bit error ratio (BER), and therefore adversely affect its performance. As identif

30、ied in ITU-R studies the maximum acceptable uplink BER for the Sarsat SARP cannot exceed 5 105. Based upon this requirement, this analysis identifies the maximum acceptable pfd associated with broadband noise in the Sarsat SARP uplink channel. The analysis does not address the effect of narrow-band

31、emissions (e.g. spectral lines), which will also adversely affect the SARPs performance nor does it address the protection requirements for all C-S instruments (e.g. Sarsat search and rescue repeater, Cospas SARP). Figure 1 shows the main hardware elements on board the NOAA satellites (and on the fu

32、ture METOP satellites). 4 Rec. ITU-R M.1478-3 FIGURE 1 On-board hardware equipment M .1 4 7 8 -0 1A t t e nu a t i on : 1 .6 d B S A R PS a r s a t SA R Pr e c e i ve a nt e nn a ( U D A )pf d A BThe UDA antenna gain pattern specification is expressed according to the nadir angle in Table 1: TABLE 1

33、 SARP receive antenna (UDA) gain pattern The specified figures in Table 1 are of the 406 MHz-Sarsat receive antenna pattern for the SARP, as they should be for the NOAA and METOP satellites. The Sarsat typical figures are: noise figure = 2.5 dB (C-S SARP input parameter), nominal background noise te

34、mperature = 1 000 K (C-S input parameter), attenuation between the antenna and the SARP receiver = 1.6 dB. Thus, the system noise temperature at the input of the SARP receiver (point B on Fig. 1) equals 1 010 K and therefore, the noise spectral density equals N0 = 198.6 dB(W/Hz). The worst-case spec

35、ification states that the SARP is designed to operate correctly when the received signal has a power C = 161 dBW (minimum level of the received signal) at the input of the receiver, which provides an effective Eb/N0 = 9.1 dB in the bit detector of the SARP if we take into account the beacon waveform

36、 and the various losses. In this case, the corresponding BER equals 2.6 105. Therefore, in order to achieve a BER of 5 105 (which is an approximate doubling of the BER) the maximum acceptable degradation is 0.3 dB. At Eb/N0 = 8.8 dB, the BER equals 4.8 105. Hereunder, the additive noise correspondin

37、g to the 0.3 dB degradation for the C/N0 is calculated. Let I0 represent the additive noise power density coming from the non-GSO MSS interferers. The initial N0 noise becomes N0 + I0. The signal-to-noise ratio C/N0 becomes C/(N0 + I0). The degradation is 0.3 dB = 10 log (C/N0)/(C/(N0 + I0), thus I0

38、/N0 = 11.5 dB and I0 = 210.1 dB(W/Hz) which corresponds to a temperature of 70.8 K, and therefore an increase of 7% of the system noise temperature at the input of the SARP receiver.

ITU-R M.1478-3 5 Therefore, the maximum admissible level of noise density is I0 = 210.1 dB(W/Hz) (calculated for point B in Fig. 1). As shown in Fig. 1, the noise densi

40、ty, I0, takes into account the attenuation and the antenna gain. As the spfd is required, it is necessary to transform this figure in dB(W/(m2 Hz). The equivalent surface area of an antenna having a gain G is 42GS . Therefore, the corresponding spfd equals 210 + 1.6 (losses) 10 log10 S = 198.6 dB(W/

41、(m2 Hz), taking into account the highest satellite nadir angle. The maximum level of broadband noise interference in the band 406-406.1 MHz shall not exceed 198.6 dB(W/(m2 Hz) to protect the Sarsat SARP instrument. 4 Upper bound on Doppler shift Any proposed protection bandwidth should also account

42、for the Doppler shifts. The value of the maximum Doppler shift must be carefully examined. The worst case occurs when the Sarsat and the non-GSO MSS satellites are located on the same orbit and travel in opposite directions. In this case, the analysis below applies. The non-GSO MSS signal comes from

43、 point A. The Sarsat satellite is represented by point B. The Sarsat satellite is moving at a speed VB. If the non-GSO MSS satellite is not moving, the received frequency at B is )1( cVF BABF in the worst case. On the other hand, the received frequency at B has the same value if the Sarsat satellite

44、 is not moving and if the non-GSO MSS satellite is moving. If the altitude of the satellite equals 850 km, its speed is 7 426 m/s. As the two satellites are moving in opposite directions, the upper bound Doppler shift equals: kH z202 cVF BA This is a worst-case situation and is not necessarily appli

45、cable to all the proposed MSS systems. 5 Conclusions and recommendations Following the above computations, the conclusions and recommendations regarding the impact of emissions from adjacent frequency bands on the Sarsat SARP are: the maximum level of broadband noise interference in the band 406-406

46、.1 MHz shall not exceed 198.6 dB(W/(m2 Hz) to protect the Sarsat SARP instrument; the upper bound on Doppler shift is 20 kHz; it is recommended that further analyses be conducted to determine the impact on C-S from MSS occupying the 405-406 MHz band using an spfd of 198.6 dB(W/(m2 Hz), an appropriat

47、e Doppler shift and accounting for the worst-case scenario associated with the entire MSS constellation as envisaged. 6 Rec.
