ITU-R REPORT M 2077-2006 Traffic forecasts and estimated spectrum requirements for the satellite component of IMT-2000 and systems beyond IMT-2000 for the period 2010 to 2020《2010年.pdf

1、 Rep. ITU-R M.2077 1 REPORT ITU-R M.2077 Traffic forecasts and estimated spectrum requirements for the satellite component of IMT-2000 and systems beyond IMT-2000*for the period 2010 to 2020 (2006) Scope This Report presents traffic forecasts and estimated spectrum requirements for the satellite com

2、ponent of IMT-2000 and systems beyond IMT-2000 for the time period 2010 to 2020. It is a continuation of Report ITU-R M.2023 which contains spectrum requirements for IMT-2000 up to the year 2010. This Report provides the technical basis for related spectrum requirements identified in the Conference

3、Preparatory Meeting (CPM) Report on WRC-07 Agenda item 1.4. 1 Introduction Systems beyond IMT-2000 is a concept and telecommunication standard that is evolving within ITU. Systems beyond IMT-2000 are envisaged to provide ubiquitous, high-data rate, content rich services to highly mobile users anywhe

4、re in the world. The time-frame for the introduction of systems beyond IMT-2000 is currently targeted to be around 2010. Although beyond IMT-2000 services are expected to be dominated by terrestrial service providers, the satellite component of IMT-2000 and systems beyond IMT-2000 will play an integ

5、ral part in systems beyond the IMT-2000 service provisions, especially in remote areas where terrestrial providers have minimal or no coverage. The objective of this Report is to provide traffic forecasts including multimedia (MM) distribution services, and estimates of spectrum requirements for the

6、 satellite component of IMT-2000 and systems beyond IMT-2000 for the period 2010 to 2020. It builds upon subscriber forecasts, traffic models and application of the latest spectrum calculation methodology in compliance with Recommendation ITU-R M.1391 to determine the spectrum requirements. 2 Traffi

7、c forecast This section describes the derivation of the traffic forecasts for the satellite component of IMT-2000 and systems beyond IMT-2000. Information is provided on the different services and applications used in each segment. Finally, the subscriber numbers and traffic usage profiles for each

8、segment are combined to derive the overall traffic forecast. *The nomenclature for systems beyond IMT-2000 is contained in draft Resolution IMT-NAME, which will be considered for adoption at the Radiocommunication Assembly 2007 (RA-07). Future revisions to this Report should take any decisions of th

9、e RA-07 in this regard into account. 2 Rep. ITU-R M.2077 2.1 Subscriber numbers The Report uses as a baseline the results of extensive user requirement studies showing the global number of MSS subscribers as given in Table 1. In view of rapid developments after completion of the subscriber user requ

10、irements study, the numbers for 2010 and 2011 have been slightly adjusted to reflect the situation between 2002 and 2005, where the number of MSS subscribers increased from 643 000 by end of 2002 to 1 402 000 by the end of 2005, resulting in an annual growth rate of 29%. The adjusted numbers for 201

11、0 and 2011 are 2.17 and 2.43 million subscribers, respectively. Two bounding scenarios with 9% and 14% annual growth have been selected to represent a pessimistic and an optimistic development, respectively. The starting position for these scenarios is 1.4 million established MSS subscribers at the

12、beginning of 2006. In deriving MSS subscriber forecasts for systems beyond IMT-2000, various uptake variables like growth rates and penetration of cellular systems, growth rates and penetration of nomadic technologies (i.e. IEEE 802.16 and 802.20), gross domestic product per capita including growth

13、rates and population distributions were considered. For the Regions Asia, North America, South America, Europe, Africa and the Arab States, the uptake variables are applied separately, taking into account different user segments (private, professional, corporate and institutional) and different usag

14、e environments (urban and rural).

Although the characteristics of the three different subscriber types are somewhat different from each other, their impact on the overall spectrum requirement is insigni

20、ficant. The sum of the three service types has therefore been taken for the spectrum calculations.

Institutional use

25、rs: Individuals and organizations operating in the governmental sector in areas such as emergency response, aviation services and maritime safety services. Professional users: This includes individuals within businesses that require mobile telecommunications to perform their own jobs more effectivel

26、y, entrepreneurs and private individuals in the top income percentile. Private users: Private individuals that make use of mass market mobile services, as well as specialist mobile services.

29、p. ITU-R M.2077 5 2.3 Radio services and applications used by each category The service categorization used in this Report is the same as that in Report ITU-R M.2023 on spectrum requirements for IMT-2000. Basically, services are divided into multimedia and non-multimedia. Multimedia services are bas

30、ed on packet switched services, while non-multimedia services are mostly circuit-switched voice and data services. The multimedia and non-multimedia services are further subdivided as follows: 2.3.1 Non-multimedia Voice: a voice coding rate of 8/16 kbit/s is assumed in Report ITU-R M.2023 but most M

31、SS systems now use rates less than this and some use rates as low as 2.4 kbit/s. Low-speed data: circuit mode data services, Report ITU-R M.2023 identifies rates of 9.6/16 kbit/s but it is assumed here to include any of the current circuit mode data services up to 64 kbit/s. Messaging: low data rate

32、 messaging at 2.4/4.8 kbit/s. This was not included as a separate category in Report ITU-R M.2023 but has been addressed separately here because of the large number of satellite mobile subscribers for these services. 2.3.2 Multimedia Voice: a voice coding rate of 8/16 kbit/s is assumed in Report ITU

33、R M.2023 but new services are likely to employ voice coding rates much less than this, possibly as low as 2.4 kbit/s. Low-speed data: messaging and email (without attachments) services at 9.6/16 kbit/s. Asymmetric services: one-way services including file transfer, database access, intranet/Interne

34、t, email (with attachments) image transfer, etc. at 144 kbit/s. Multimedia interactive: videoconferencing and videotelephony at data speeds of around 144 kbit/s. Multimedia distribution service: a multiplexed forward link with a carrier data rate of around 2.3 Mbit/s. The return link will be low rat

35、e and might use a terrestrial connection where available. This category was not included in Report ITU-R M.2023.

41、y relevant to the traffic forecast. This is because of the inherent nature of these services; the same volume of traffic will be distributed regardless of whether it is received by one or many receivers/subscribers. The volume of multimedia distribution traffic is determined from commercial estimate

42、s of the channel throughput and number of channels required to provide the multimedia distribution service. It is assumed that the demand for services such as satellite mobile TV and rich media will increase, capturing some of the terrestrial mobile traffic because satellite services are inherently

43、more suited to providing programs on a large scale, intended for large audiences, compared to terrestrial services.

46、77 7 Table 7 shows the multimedia distribution traffic forecast under consideration. User requirement studies resulted in forecasts between 30 and 40 channels as shown in the second row, which needed some adjustments to reflect traffic sharing with alternative service providers via terrestrial cellu

47、lar as well as satellite networks. For a low traffic scenario, 17 channels, and for a high traffic scenario, 35 channels have been assumed, respectively. Related traffic volumes are contained in rows 6 and 8 of Table 7. 2.5 User traffic per service application This section derives the user traffic p

48、er service application for each of the identified service types. The variation between service applications was assumed to be in the services used rather than the usage profile of individual services.
